Bedding Products 

This segment supplies a large variety of components and machinery used by bedding manufacturers in the production and assembly of their finished products. It also includes private label finished mattresses for bedding brands and adjustable bed bases. Bedding products are vertically integrated into the production and supply of specialty foam chemicals, steel rods, and drawn steel wire, for their operations and to external customers. Trade customers for wire make mechanical springs and many other end products for Leggett & Platt. Almost 50% of the total revenue comes from bedding products. Each financial year, this segment constitutes the highest contribution in the total revenue generated in Q3 2021. 

On a QoQ basis, there was a 9.1% increase in the revenue generated from this segment. Comparatively, on a YoY basis, there was a 12.6% increase in the revenue contribution. In the last 3 quarters, there is a linear increase in the revenue generated. Since the revamp in 2020, this segment has grown by 31%.

Furniture, Flooring & Textile Products

Operations in this segment include the supply of a wide range of components for residential and work furniture manufacturers, as well as select lines of private-label, finished furniture. Leggett & Platt also produces and distributes carpet cushions, hard surface flooring underlayment, and textile and geo components. This segment contributed almost 32% of the total revenue generated in Q3 2021.

On a QoQ basis, there was an additional increase in revenue of only $0.3 million from this section of the business. On the contrary, there was an 11.9% increase on a YoY basis. Even here, there has been a growth of almost 31% since 2020. 

Specialized Products

From this segment, lumbar support systems, seat suspension systems, motors and actuators, and control cables used by automotive manufacturers are supplied. They also produce and distribute tubing and tube assemblies for the aerospace industry and engineered hydraulic cylinders used in the material handling and construction industries. This segment contributed 18% of the total revenue generated in Q3 2021.

In FY2021, there has been a decline in the revenue generated. On a QoQ basis, there is a decrease of 2.5%, whereas, on a YoY basis, there was a 3% decline. This reduction can be attributed to the decline in sales. Volume had reduced, primarily from lower sales in Automotive due to semiconductor shortages impacting global automotive production. It was partially offset by sales growth in Hydraulic Cylinders and Aerospace.
