“As we continue to navigate a challenging macro environment, our business is well positioned for growth. Demand has steadily improved year-to-date, and we expect this trend to continue in the back-half of the year as we benefit from the launch of our entire next generation smart bed portfolio, the Climate360 smart bed, and the advancement of our ‘Sleep Next Level’ advertising campaign with the start of the NFL season,” said Shelly Ibach, Chair, President and CEO, Sleep Number. “We have taken actions across the business to drive efficiencies and remain on track to expand margins and generate more than $100 million in cash from operations in 2023.”

Today, Sleep Number also announced the appointment of Francis Lee to Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Details can be found on the Sleep Number newsroom.

SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES *Calculation of Return on Invested Capital (Adjusted ROIC)* (in thousands) Adjusted ROIC is a financial measure we use to determine how efficiently we deploy our capital. It quantifies the return we earn on our adjusted invested capital. Management believes Adjusted ROIC is also a useful metric for investors and financial analysts. We compute Adjusted ROIC as outlined below. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted ROIC may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions and calculations used by other companies. The tables below reconcile adjusted net operating profit after taxes (Adjusted NOPAT) and total adjusted invested capital, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to the comparable GAAP financial measures:

³	Long-term debt includes existing finance lease liabilities.
⁴	Reflects operating lease liabilities included in our financial statements under ASC 842.
⁵	Average adjusted invested capital represents the average of the last five fiscal quarters' ending adjusted invested capital balances.
⁶	Adjusted ROIC equals Adjusted NOPAT divided by average adjusted invested capital.

	Note - the Company's adjusted ROIC calculation and data are considered non-GAAP financial measures and are not in accordance with, or preferable to, GAAP financial data. However, we are providing this information as we believe it facilitates analysis of the Company's financial performance by investors and financial analysts. The Company updated its Adjusted ROIC calculation effective beginning with the reporting period ended December 31, 2022, to reflect adjustments consistent with ASC 842. The prior period has been updated to reflect this calculation.
