Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
The Company disclosed today certain non-recurring items that will be recorded as non-GAAP, pro forma adjustments in its consolidated results of operations for the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter results will be released before the New York Stock Exchange open of regular trading on Thursday, October 29, 2015.
The combined pre-tax impact of these items on the Company’s GAAP income is expected to be approximately $7.8 million, with a net after-tax impact of approximately $10.7 million in the third quarter of 2015. These non-recurring items impacting the third quarter of 2015 are:
• | The Company reported today it has settled the previously disclosed antitrust investigation by the German Federal Cartel Office (“FCO”) alleging vertical price fixing. The Company’s German subsidiary was one of several mattress wholesaler/manufacturers that has reached a settlement with the FCO. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company will pay approximately 15.5 million Euros (approximately $17.4 million) to fully resolve this matter. The payment is not tax deductible. The Company expects to accrue the expense in the third quarter and pay this amount in the fourth quarter. |
• | The Company reported today that it has reached an agreement in a separate legal dispute with certain suppliers resulting in the Company recording a gain of and receiving approximately $9.5 million in the third quarter ($6.6 million net of taxes). |
These items are not expected to impact the adjusted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP financial information that the Company provides to investors. The information provided in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
