THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Net trade sales were $1.0 billion, a 6%² decrease versus third quarter 2024

Organic sales³ were down 4%
- Volume was down 6%, primarily from continued soft demand in residential end markets, Automotive, and Hydraulic Cylinders. These declines were partially offset by growth in Textiles and Work Furniture.
- Raw material-related selling price increases and currency benefit increased sales 2%
Divestitures decreased sales 2%

EBIT was $171 million, a $93 million increase from third quarter 2024. Adjusted¹ EBIT was $73 million, a $3 million decrease from third quarter 2024 adjusted¹ EBIT.

3Q 2025 adjustments include: $4 million of restructuring charges, $87 million gain from the Aerospace divestiture, $13 million gain from net insurance proceeds related to a storage facility fire in the Bedding Products segment, and $2 million gain from the sale of real estate
3Q 2024 adjustments include: $12 million of restructuring charges and a $14 million gain from the sale of real estate
Adjusted¹ EBIT decreased primarily from lower volume partially offset by metal margin expansion in trade rod and restructuring benefit

EBIT margin was 16.5%, up from 7.1% in the third quarter of 2024, and adjusted¹ EBIT margin was 7.0%, up from 6.9%.

EPS was $0.91, a $0.58 increase versus third quarter 2024 EPS of $0.33. Third quarter adjusted¹ EPS was $0.29, down $0.03 versus third quarter 2024 adjusted¹ EPS of $0.32.

Debt at September 30

RESTRUCTURING PLAN UPDATE

Annualized EBIT benefit of $60–$70 million still expected to be realized after initiatives are fully implemented
- Realized $10 million of incremental⁴ EBIT benefit in third quarter 2025
Anticipate approximately $60 million of annual sales attrition after initiatives are fully implemented versus our prior estimate of $65 million
- Realized $9 million of incremental⁴ sales attrition in third quarter 2025, including $3 million from the divestiture of a small U.S. machinery business in the Bedding Products segment
Estimate real estate proceeds of $70–$80 million
- Realized $43 million of cash proceeds from inception and now anticipate up to an additional $17 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 with the balance in 2026
Expect restructuring and restructuring-related costs from inception of approximately $75 million

2025 GUIDANCE

Reaffirmed the midpoint of 2025 sales and adjusted EPS while narrowing the range
Sales are now expected to be $4.0–$4.1 billion (versus $3.9–$4.2 billion previously), down 6% to 9% versus 2024
- Volume is expected to be down mid to high single digits
- Volume at the midpoint:
  - Down mid-teens in Bedding Products segment
  - Down mid-single digits in Specialized Products segment
  - Down low single digits in Furniture, Flooring & Textile Products segment
- Raw material-related price increases and currency benefit are expected to be up low single digits
- Divestitures to reduce sales by 2%
EPS is now expected to be $1.52–$1.72 (versus $1.43–$1.72 previously)
- Earnings per share adjustments include the following:
  - $0.13 impact from restructuring costs
  - $0.02 impact from a special tax item related to recent U.S. corporate tax law changes
