Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 11, 2026, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ending December 31, 2025 and related matters. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. On February 12, 2026, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and year-end 2025 results, annual earnings guidance, market conditions, Company initiatives, and related matters. The press release contains the Company’s (i) Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) change in Organic Sales. The press release also contains Segments’ (i) Adjusted EBIT; (ii) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; and (v) change in Organic Sales. Company management believes the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) provides investors a useful way to assess the time it would take the Company to pay off its debt, ignoring various factors including interest and taxes. Management uses these ratios as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations. Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance. Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months. Company management believes the presentation of change in Organic Sales is useful to investors and is used by management as supplemental informatio

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On August 1, 2024, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2024, and related matters. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. On August 2, 2024, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its second quarter results, annual earnings guidance, market conditions and related matters. The press release contains the Company’s (i) Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) change in Organic Sales. The press release also contains certain Segments’ (i) Adjusted EBIT; (ii) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; and (v) change in Organic Sales. Company management believes the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) provides investors a useful way to assess the time it would take the Company to pay off its debt, ignoring various factors including interest and taxes. Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations. Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance. Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months.

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On January 11, 2024, the Board approved, and the Company committed to a restructuring plan primarily associated with our Bedding Products segment, and to a lesser extent our Furniture, Flooring & Textile (“FF&T”) Products segment (the “Restructuring Plan”). In response to evolving markets, the Company anticipates taking actions pursuant to the Restructuring Plan to improve manufacturing and distribution efficiency, advance its product strategy, and further support customer needs. The Restructuring Plan is designed to create a portfolio of products and an operating footprint aligned with the markets we serve. The bedding market has experienced unprecedented change in recent years and the competitive landscape has continued to evolve. Optimizing our manufacturing and distribution footprint should reduce complexity, improve overall efficiency and align capacity with anticipated future market demand. These actions are expected to allow us to further integrate our specialty foam and innerspring capabilities, while maintaining our service and quality levels. We plan to consolidate between 15 and 20 of 50 production and distribution facilities in the Bedding Products segment. Also, in our FF&T Products segment, we plan to consolidate a small number of production facilities in our Home Furniture and Flooring Products business units. The production in the affected facilities is expected

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 1, 2023, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated issued a press release announcing its financial results for the first quarter of 2023 and related matters. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. This information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. On May 2, 2023, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its first quarter results, annual earnings guidance, market conditions and related matters. The press release contains the Company (i) Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) change in Organic Sales. The press release also contains each Segments’ (i) EBITDA; (ii) EBITDA Margin; and (iii) change in Organic Sales.

Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations. Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment EBITDA and EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance. Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months. Company management believes the presentation of change in Organic Sales is useful to investors, and is used by management, as supplemental information to analyze our underlying sales performance from period to period in our legacy businesses. The above non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should no
