receivables in accordance with their terms, (v) potential impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, and (vi) our

ability to access the commercial paper market or borrow under our credit facility, including our inability to comply

with the restrictive covenants in our credit facility; our ability to reduce fixed costs; our ability to achieve our

operating targets; projections of Company sales, earnings, EBIT margin, depreciation and amortization, capital

expenditures, dividends, cash from operations, net interest expense, tax rate and diluted shares; price and

product competition; cost and availability of raw materials and labor, fuel and energy costs, climate change

regulations, environmental, social and governance risks, foreign currency fluctuation, cash repatriation, litigation

risks and other risk factors in Leggett's most recent Form 10-K and subsequent Form 8-Ks and Form 10-Qs.

Additional Information

Cost Structure

Costs are roughly 75% variable, 25% fixed

Incremental/decremental volume

25ꟷ35% contribution margin

Cost of Goods Soldcomposition (approximate):

60% Materials, composed of:

Steel ~25% of RMs

Chemicals ~15% of RMs

Woven & non-woven fabrics ~10% of RMs

Foam scrap, fibers ~3% of RMs

Titanium, nickel, stainless ~2% of RMs

Others, including sub-assemblies, hardware, components,

finished products purchased for resale, etc. ~45% of RMs

20% Labor (includes all burden and overhead)

20% Other, composed of:

Depreciation, utilities, maintenance, supplies - each ~3% of COGS

Shipping/transportation ~10% of COGS

Other also includes rent, insurance, property tax, etc.

32

Steel Impact

  • Primary commodity exposure is steel; ~25% of RM's
  • Main categories are scrap, rod, and flat-rolled
    • Many grades of scrap - market data is generally available
    • Limited credible data to track moves in other types of steel
  • Impact from inflation/deflation
    • Typically pass through; lag is ~90 days
  • LIFO accelerates inflation/deflation into COGS
  • Changes in metal margin (mkt price for rod - mkt price for scrap) also impact earnings
    • Our scrap cost and rod pricing moves with the market; large swings cause Industrial Products segment earnings volatility

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

While we report financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"), this presentation includes non-GAAP measures. These include adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted earnings, and adjusted EPS. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in that they assist investors' understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the company's operational performance.

We believe the presentation of return on invested capital (ROIC) provides investors a useful way to assess how efficiently the Company uses investors' funds to generate income. Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to assess how effectively its invested capital is utilized.

The above non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for, or more meaningful than, their GAAP counterparts.
