Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings The Company is involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. If a material loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed. With respect to currently pending legal proceedings, the Company has not established an estimated range of reasonably possible material losses either because it believes that is has valid defenses to claims asserted against it, the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable it to establish an estimate, or the potential loss is not material. The Company currently does not expect the outcome of pending legal proceedings to have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against the Company could adversely impact its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company expenses legal costs as incurred. Purported Class Action Complaint On December 15, 2023, a former Field Services team member filed a purported class action Complaint in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara, alleging violations of California’s meal and rest break law and additional wage and hour derivative claims under the California Labor Code. While the representative plaintiff was in the Field Services workforce, the Complaint does not limit the purported plaintiff class to that group, but rather extends to all non-exempt Sleep Number employees in the state. The plaintiff alleges that Sleep Number failed to provide compliant meal or rest breaks, failed to pay wages owed due to alleged off the clock work, failed to pay overtime, minimum wage and wages due at termination, thus resulting in inaccurate wage statements, all in violation of California law. The Complaint seeks damages in the form of unpaid regular and premium wages, statutory penalties, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs. Shareholder Class Action Complaints On December 14, 2021, purported Sleep Number shareholder, Steamfitters Local 449 Pension & Retirement Security Funds (Steamfitters), filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota (the District of Minnesota) on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021, inclusive, against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach and David Callen, the Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Steamfitters alleges material misstatements and omissions in certain of Sleep Number’s public disclosures during the purported class period, in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, reasonable costs and expenses and equitable/injunctive or other relief as deemed appropriate by the District of Minnesota. On February 14, 2022, a second purported Sleep Number shareholder, Ricardo Dario Schammas, moved for appointment as lead plaintiff in the action. On March 24, 2022, the District of Minnesota heard argument on Schammas’s motion, and subsequently appointed Steamfitters and Schammas as Co-Lead Plaintiffs (together, Co-Lead Plaintiffs). On July 19, 2022, Co-Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, which, like the predecessor complaint, asserts claims against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach, and David Callen under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Co- Lead Plaintiffs purport to assert these claims on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021. On September 19, 2022, Defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint, which motion was heard by the Court on January 17, 2023. On July 10, 2023, the Court issued an order dismissing the Plaintiffs’ consolidated amended complaint with prejudice. Shareholder Derivative Complaint On May 12, 2022, Gwendolyn Calla Moore, as the appointed representative of purported Sleep Number shareholder Matthew Gelb, filed a derivative action (the Derivative Action) in the District of Minnesota against Jean-Michel Valette, Shelly Ibach, Barbara Matas, Brenda Lauderback, Daniel Alegre, Deborah Kilpatrick, Julie Howard, Kathleen Nedorostek, Michael Harrison, Stephen Gulis, Jr., David Callen, and Kevin Brown. Moore purports to assert claims on behalf of Sleep Number for breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21(d) of the Exchange Act. Moore’s allegations generally mirror those asserted in the securities complaint described above. The Moore complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount, disgorgement, interest, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ and experts’ fees. On September 13, 2022, the District of Minnesota entered a joint stipulation staying all proceedings in the Derivative Action pending the outcome of any motion to dismiss the Steamfitters consolidated amended complaint. On July 10, 2023, the District of Minnesota in the Steamfitters case dismissed the consolidated amended complaint with prejudice, as noted above. The Plaintiff in the Derivative Action subsequently moved the Court to voluntarily dismiss its the Complaint and on January 22, 2024, the District of Minnesota dismissed the Derivative Action without prejudice. Stockholder Demand On March 25, 2022, Sleep Number received a shareholder litigation demand (the “Demand”), requesting that the Board investigate the allegations in the Steamfitters complaint and pursue claims on Sleep Number’s behalf based on those allegations. On May 12, 2022, the Board established a special litigation committee to investigate the demand. On October 5 and October 12, 2022, Sleep Number received two additional shareholder litigation demands, which adopted and incorporated the allegations and requests in the Demand. Both of these additional litigation demands were referred to the special litigation committee. The special litigation committee has concluded that it would not be in the best interests of Sleep Number and its shareholders to take any of the actions requested in the demands at this time. Consumer Credit Arrangements The Company refers customers seeking extended financing to certain third-party financiers (Card Servicers). The Card Servicers, if credit is granted, establish the interest rates, fees, and all other terms and conditions of the customer’s account based on their evaluation of the creditworthiness of the customer. As the accounts are owned by the Card Servicers, at no time are the accounts purchased or acquired from Sleep Number. The Company is not liable to the Card Servicers for its customers’ credit defaults. Commitments As of December 30, 2023, the Company has $35 million of inventory purchase commitments. As part of the normal course of business, there are a limited number of inventory supply contracts that contain penalty provisions for failure to purchase contracted quantities. The Company does not currently expect any material payments under these provisions. At December 30, 2023, the Company had entered into 16 lease commitments primarily for future retail store locations. These lease commitments provide for total lease payments over the next six to 10 years, which if consummated based on current cost estimates, would approximate $25 million over the initial lease term. The future lease payments for these lease commitments have been excluded in the total operating lease payments in Note 7, Leases.
