Note A--Basis of Presentation
This report covers Sealy Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively,
"Sealy" or the "Company"). References to the "Parent" are to Sealy Corporation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read together with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended November 29, 1998.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to
present fairly the financial position of the Company at May 30, 1999, and its
results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented herein. All
adjustments in the periods presented herein are normal and recurring in nature.
Certain reclassifications of previously reported financial information were

Note C--Recapitalization
On October 30, 1997, Sealy Corporation entered into an agreement and plan of
merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Sandman Merger Corporation, a transitory
Delaware merger corporation ("Sandman"), and Zell/Chillmark, Fund, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership ("Zell"). Zell owned approximately 87% of the
issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. Pursuant to the Merger
Agreement, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, Sandman was merged with
and into the Company with the Company being the surviving corporation effective
on December 18, 1997 (the "Closing Date") and the Company was recapitalized
(the "Recapitalization") whereby certain equity investors, including members of
management, acquired an approximate 90.0% economic equity stake (85.3% voting
equity stake) in the Company. A portion of the issued and outstanding shares of
common stock of the Company was converted into the right to receive aggregate
cash equal to $419.3 million less (i) certain seller fees and expenses and (ii)
certain costs in connection with the extinguishment of certain outstanding
options and warrants of the Company and the remaining portion was converted
into $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of a junior subordinated note
of the Company ("Junior Note") and a retained voting common stock interest in
the Company of approximately 14.7%. In March, 1999, the Company's non-
management shareholders and ten of the Company's senior executives purchased
all of the Company's common stock then held by Zell.
Concurrent with the Recapitalization, the Company refinanced its then
existing indebtedness by Sealy Mattress Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Company, issuing $125 million principal amount of 9 7/8 Senior Subordinated
Notes, due 2007 and $128 million principal amount (net proceeds of $75.4
million) of 10 7/8 Senior Subordinated Discount Notes due 2007 and by entering
into and borrowing $460 million under the Senior Credit Agreements. Net
proceeds from these borrowings were $660.4 million.

SEALY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
Six months ended May 30, 1999
The Recapitalization transaction resulted in an aggregate direct net charge
to APIC and retained deficit totaling $438.1 million primarily comprised of the
costs associated with the purchase of the then outstanding Class A and Class B
Common Stock, the repurchase of Merger Warrants and the repurchase of Series A
and Series B Restructure Warrants. The Recapitalization transaction also
resulted in a pretax charge of $18.9 million ($18.6 million recognized in the
first half of 1998), of which $16.4 million was non-cash and resulted in a
credit directly to APIC, comprised of accelerated vesting of stock options and
restricted stock and other incentive based compensation payments to employees.
The Company recorded a $14.5 million extraordinary charge, net of income tax
benefit of $9.6 million, representing the write-off of the remaining
unamortized debt issue costs related to long-term obligations repaid in
connection with the Recapitalization as well as consent fees and premiums paid
related to a tender offer for Subordinated Notes of the Parent.
Note D--Net Income Per Common Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings
per share (in thousands):

</TABLE>
Due to a loss from operations for the three months ended and the six months
ended May 31, 1998, the dilutive securities would have been antidilutive.
Accordingly, they were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per
share.
Note E--Comprehensive Income
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income", effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997, the
Company's fiscal year 1999. FAS 130 requires that the Company report
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. Comprehensive income represents the change in
stockholders' equity during the period from nonowner sources. Currently, other
comprehensive income consists only of foreign currency translation adjustments.
The Company adopted FAS 130 on November 30, 1998 and it had no impact on the
Company's net income or stockholders' equity.
Total comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended May 30,
1999 was $3.7 million and $5.0 million and for the three and six months ended
May 31, 1998 was $(2.2) million and $(34.7) million, respectively.

Note F--Contingencies
In accordance with procedures established under the Environmental Cleanup
Responsibility Act (now known as the Industrial Site Recovery Act), Sealy
Corporation and one of its subsidiaries are parties to an Administrative
Consent Order ("ACO") issued by the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection ("DEP"). Pursuant to the ACO, the Company and such subsidiary agreed
to conduct soil and groundwater investigation and remediation at the plant
previously owned by the subsidiary in South Brunswick, New Jersey. The Company
does not believe that its manufacturing processes were a source of the
contaminants found to exist above regulatorily acceptable levels in the
groundwater. The Company and its subsidiary have retained primary
responsibility for the investigation and any necessary clean up plan approved
by the DEP under the terms of the ACO.
In 1997, the Company, with DEP approval, completed essentially all soil
remediation and conducted a pilot test for a company-proposed revision to the
groundwater remediation program. The Company's revised groundwater remediation
plan was submitted in May, 1998 to the DEP for approval. In February, 1999 the
Company agreed to conduct an additional investigation at the site, which is now
being undertaken.
While the Company cannot predict the ultimate timing or cost to remediate
this facility based on facts currently known, management believes the
previously established accrual for site investigation and remediation costs is
adequate to cover the Company's reasonably estimable liability and does not
believe the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial position or future operations.
In March, 1994, the Company filed a claim in the U.S. District Court for the
District of New Jersey against former owners of the site and their lenders
under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
seeking contribution for site investigation and remedial costs. In March, 1997,
the Company received $1.7 million from a former owner of the site and one of
the lenders to the former owner in the final settlement of this litigation
which was recorded as an increase to other noncurrent liabilities.
In January 1997, the Company filed a claim in the U.S. District Court of New
Jersey against former insurance companies for the Company under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act seeking
contribution for site investigation and remedial costs. In November, 1998, the
Company settled this claim when the insurers paid the Company approximately
$3.8 million which was recorded as an increase to other noncurrent liabilities.
The Company also has begun to remediate soil and groundwater contamination
at an inactive facility located in Oakville, Connecticut. The Company's soil
and groundwater remediation plan was approved by the
9
<PAGE>
SEALY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
Six months ended May 30, 1999
Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection in April, 1999. The Company
believes the contamination is attributable to the manufacturing operations of
previous unaffiliated occupants of the facility. In 1994, the Company filed a
cost recovery action in U.S. District Court of Connecticut to require these
entities to complete the remediation and reimburse the Company for its cleanup
costs. Trial of this matter has been bifurcated. The issue of damages was tried
in May, 1999 and the Company is currently awaiting the judge's decision from
that trial. Based on the facts currently known, management does not believe
that resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial position or future operations.
On May 22, 1997, the Company filed in the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Illinois a motion to terminate certain antitrust final
judgments (the "Judgments") entered on December 30, 1964 and December 26, 1967.
These Judgments, among other things, prohibited the Company from suggesting
resale prices to its dealers. During the pendency of the Company's motion to
terminate the Judgments the Department of Justice (the "Department") on
September 8, 1997, issued to the Company a Civil Investigative Demand ("CID")
seeking documents relating to, among other things, communications between the
Company and dealers concerning the retail prices of mattresses. In response to
the CID, the Company produced certain documents and the deposition of a Company
executive was taken. Immediately following such document production and
deposition, the Department consented to the termination of the Judgments and an
order terminating the Judgments was entered by the Court on September 19, 1997.
The Company produced additional documents in response to the CID, and
cooperated with the Department in its investigation.
Note G--Guarantor/Non-Guarantor Financial Information
The Parent and each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries has fully and
unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, the obligation to pay
principal and interest with respect to the Senior Subordinated and Senior
Subordinated Discount Notes (collectively, the "Notes") of Sealy Mattress
Company (the "Issuer"). Substantially all of the Issuer's operating income and
cash flow is generated by its subsidiaries. As a result, funds necessary to
meet the Issuer's debt service obligations are provided in part by
distributions or advances from its subsidiaries. Under certain circumstances,
contractual and legal restrictions, as well as the financial condition and
operating requirements of the Issuer's subsidiaries, could limit the Issuer's
ability to obtain cash from its subsidiaries for the purpose of meeting its
debt service obligations, including the payment of principal and interest on
the Notes. Although holders of the Notes will be direct creditors of the
Issuer's principal direct subsidiaries by virtue of the guarantees, the Issuer
has subsidiaries ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries") that are not included among the
Guarantor Subsidiaries, and such subsidiaries will not be obligated with
respect to the Notes. As a result, the claims of creditors of the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries will effectively have priority with respect to the assets and
earnings of such companies over the claims of creditors of the Issuer,
including the holders of the Notes.
The following supplemental consolidating condensed financial statements
present:
1. Consolidating condensed balance sheets as of May 30, 1999 and
November 29, 1998 and consolidating condensed statements of
operations and cash flows for the six months ended May 30, 1999 and
May 31, 1998 and the consolidated condensed statements of operations
for the three months ended May 30, 1999 and May 31, 1998.
2. Sealy Corporation (the "Parent" and a "guarantor"), Sealy Mattress
Company (the "Issuer"), combined Guarantor Subsidiaries and combined
Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries with their investments in subsidiaries
accounted for using the equity method.
3. Elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent and all of
its subsidiaries.
Management does not believe that separate financial statements of the
Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to investors in the Notes.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Item 2--Quarter Ended May 30, 1999 compared with Quarter Ended May 31, 1998
Net Sales. Net sales increased $18.6 million, or 8.7% for the quarter ended
May 30, 1999, when compared to the quarter ended May 31, 1998. The increase is
attributable to a 3.3% increase in average unit selling price and a 5.4%
increase in unit volume. The increase in average unit selling price is
primarily attributable to the introduction of the Crown Jewel Dual Support
System ("DSS") line and a strong increase in the Stearns & Foster brand.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the quarter, as a percentage of
net sales, decreased 1.2 percentage points to 55.5%. This decrease is primarily
attributable to an increase in sales of higher end units, such as the Crown
Jewel DSS and Stearns & Foster brands with higher gross margins than average;
improved plant efficiencies; a reduction in manufacturing overhead and reduced
prices for certain raw materials.
Selling, General, and Administrative. Selling, general, and administrative
expenses increased $3.8 million. This increase is primarily due to increased
marketing expenses, of $2.6 million, associated with increased sales volume, as
well as higher cooperative advertising and promotions associated with the new
Crown Jewel DSS and Golden Anniversay product launch. The Company also incurred
an additional $0.6 million of depreciation expense associated with capital
spending; $0.3 million of delivery expense due to an increase in sales volume,
$0.2 million in Year 2000 systems upgrades and $0.1 million in other expenses
associated with increased business activity.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $1.6
million primarily due to lower average interest rates associated with the
floating rate debt and lower average debt levels.
Income Tax. The Company's effective income tax rates in 1999 and 1998 differ
from the Federal statutory rate principally because of the application of
purchase accounting, the effect of certain foreign tax rate differentials, and
state and local income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 50.6% for
the quarter ended May 30, 1999 as compared to 33.5% for the quarter ended May
31, 1998. The relatively low effective tax rate for 1998 was due to low full
year projected pretax income resulting from increased leverage and compensation
charges associated with the Recapitalization, as well as the charges related to
the Corporate Headquarters, Research and Development Center and Lexington plant
relocation to High Point, North Carolina.
Net Income (Loss). For the reasons set forth above, the Company recorded net
income of $3.2 million for the quarter ended May 30, 1999 versus a net loss of
$(1.7) million for the quarter ended May 31, 1998.
Six Months Ended May 30, 1999 compared with Six Months Ended May 31, 1998
Net Sales. Net sales increased $31.7 million, or 7.5% for the six months
ended May 30, 1999, when compared to the six months ended May 31, 1998. The
increase is attributable to a 4.8% increase in average unit selling price and a
2.7% increase in unit volume. The increase in average unit selling price is
primarily attributable to the introduction of the Crown Jewel DSS line and a
strong increase in the Stearns & Foster brand.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the six months, as a percentage
of net sales, decreased 2.1 percentage points to 55.3%. This decrease is
primarily attributable to an increase in sales of higher end units, such as the
Crown Jewel DSS and Stearns & Foster brands with higher margins than average,
improved plant efficiencies, a reduction in manufacturing overhead and reduced
prices for certain raw materials.

SEALY CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION--(Continued)
Selling, General, and Administrative. Selling, general, and administrative
expenses increased $13.7 million. This increase is primarily due to increased
marketing expenses, of $8.4 million, associated with increased sales volume, as
well as higher cooperative advertising and promotions associated with the new
Crown Jewel DSS and Golden Anniversary product launch. The Company also
incurred an additional $1.3 million of depreciation expense associated with
capital spending, performance based compensation $1.2, $0.6 of expense
associated with increased business activity, a foreign currency loss of $1.3
million associated with its foreign operations (primarily associated with test
market activities in Brazil) and $0.9 million in costs associated with Year
2000 compliance.
Compensation Associated with Recapitalization. During the first six months
of 1998, the Company recorded a charge of $18.6 million as a result of
accelerated vesting of stock options and restricted stock, other incentive
based compensation payments and option grants to employees in connection with
the Recapitalization.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased $0.6
million primarily due to lower average interest rates associated with the
floating rate debt and lower average debt levels.
Income Tax. The Company's effective income tax rates in 1999 and 1998 differ
from the Federal statutory rate principally because of the application of
purchase accounting, the effect of certain foreign tax rate differentials, and
state and local income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate for 1999 is
expected to be approximately 52.2% compared to 7.5% for 1998. The relatively
low effective tax rate for 1998 was due to low full year projected pretax
income resulting from increased leverage and compensation charges associated
with the Recapitalization, as well as the charges related to the Corporate
Headquarters, Research and Development Center and Lexington plant relocation to
High Point, North Carolina.
Extraordinary Item. During the first six months of 1998, the Company
recorded a $14.5 million charge, net of income tax benefit of $9.7 million,
representing the write-off of the remaining unamortized debt issue costs
related to long-term obligations repaid in connection with the Recapitalization
as well as consent fees and premiums paid related to the tender offer for the
Parent notes in connection with the Recapitalization.
Net Income (Loss). For the reasons set forth above, the Company recorded net
income of $3.6 million for the six months ended May 30, 1999 versus a net loss
of $(34.0) million for the six months ended May 31, 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's principal sources of funds are cash flows from operations and
borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company's principal use of
funds consists of payments of principal and interest on its Senior Credit
Agreements, capital expenditures and interest payments on its outstanding
Notes. Capital expenditures totaled $7.1 million for the six months ended May
30, 1999. Management believes that annual capital expenditure limitations in
its current debt agreements will not significantly inhibit the Company from
meeting its ongoing capital needs. At May 30, 1999, the Company had
approximately $96.2 million available under its Revolving Credit Facility with
Letters of Credit issued totaling approximately $3.8 million outstanding. The
weighted average effective interest rate on the Company's debt for the six
months ended May 30, 1999 was 9.4%.
From time to time Sealy makes investments in debt, preferred stock or other
securities of manufacturers, retailers, joint ventures and distributors of
bedding and related products both domestically and internationally in order to
strengthen relationships with such businesses.

SEALY CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION--(Continued)
Management believes that the Company will have the necessary liquidity
through cash flow from operations, and availability under the Revolving Credit
Facility for the next several years to fund its expected capital expenditures,
obligations under its credit agreement and subordinated note indentures,
environmental liabilities, and for other needs required to manage and operate
its business.
Year 2000 Issue
Until recently, computer programs were generally written using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Accordingly, such programs may
be unable to distinguish properly between the Year 1900 and the Year 2000. This
could result in system failures or data corruption for the Company, its
customers or suppliers which could cause disruptions of operations, including,
among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions or engage in
business activities or to receive information, services, raw materials and
supplies, or payment from suppliers, customers or business partners or any
other companies with which the Company conducts business.
The Company believes that the new business systems, including appropriate
software, being installed both alongside and as part of an upgrade of its
existing computer system will address the dating system flaw inherent in most
operating systems (the "Year 2000 Issue"). There can be no assurance, however,
that the new business systems will be installed and fully operational at all
locations and for all applications prior to the turn of the century, and
management has therefore deemed it necessary to convert its current system to
be Year 2000 compliant.
The Company conducted a comprehensive impact analysis to determine what
computing platforms and date-aware functions with respect to its existing
computer operating systems will be disrupted by the Year 2000 Issue. In January
1998, the Company completed a prioritization of the impacted areas identified
to date and commenced the detailed program code changes through a contracted
third party vendor which has experience in Year 2000 conversions for the
Company's existing system including the same release of such system. The
Company has received converted source code from the contracted vendor, has
validated the code, and is currently implementing the converted programs. The
Company's current timetable anticipates rollout and implementation to all
locations by August, 1999. As of June 28, 1999, 19 of 26 locations are in
"production status" with the Y2K compliant business system. The remaining seven
locations are scheduled for July, 1999 implementation. At this time, the
Company has not deemed it necessary to develop contingency plans for any of the
applications being converted, however, the Company will continue to assess this
and will develop contingency plans for any applications not converted and
operating by August, 1999. Senior management regularly reviews the status of
the Year 2000 program and the Company has hired an independent third party to
review and report on the Company's status and preparedness.
The Company is currently in the process of replacing personal computers and
phone systems that are not Year 2000 compliant. The Company has confirmed that
its primary manufacturing equipment is Year 2000 compliant. Major suppliers to
the Company have been contacted and the Company has received confirmation of
Year 2000 compliance or a timetable to be compliant from such suppliers.
Contingency plans will be developed for any significant suppliers or customers
that are not Year 2000 compliant by August 1999 or earlier if the Company
becomes aware that such entities may not be Year 2000 compliant in a timely
manner.
The Company is funding the expenditures related to the Year 2000 plan with
cash flows from operations. The required code changes, testing and
implementation necessary to address the Year 2000 Issue are expected to cost
approximately $3.25 million and the Company has incurred $2.2 million through
May, 1999, with approximately $0.5 incurred during the current quarter. The
Company estimates that it is approximately 75% complete with the efforts
required to be Year 2000 compliant.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION--(Continued)
Even though the Company's Year 2000 plan should adequately address the Year
2000 Issue, there can be no assurance that unforeseen difficulties will not
arise. If the Company does not identify and fix all Year 2000 problems, or if a
major supplier or customer is unable to adequately address its Year 2000 Issue,
the Company's results of operations or financial condition could be materially
impacted. A possible worst case scenario might include one or more of the
Company's significant manufacturing or information technology systems being
interrupted causing a delay or curtailment in the production and/or
distribution of goods, a delay or curtailment in the billing and collection of
revenues, an inability to maintain accounting records accurately, and/or an
inability to manage its financial resources, potentially causing a material
impact on the Company's results of operations and financial position. The
Company is engaged in extensive efforts to provide a continuous, uninterrupted
flow of goods and services to customers.
Forward Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Report Act of 1995.
Although the Company believes its plans are based upon reasonable assumptions
as of the current date, it can give no assurances that such expectations can be
attained. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company's expectations include: general business and economic conditions,
competitive factors, raw materials pricing, and fluctuations in demand.
Item 3--Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Information relative to the Company's market risk sensitive instruments by
major category at November 29, 1998 is presented under Item 7a of the
registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 29,
1998.
Foreign Currency Exposures
The Company's earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of its
subsidiaries' functional currency as compared to the currencies of its foreign
denominated purchases. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to hedge
against the earnings effects of such fluctuations. The result of a uniform 10%
change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to currencies of countries in
which the Company manufactures or sells its products would not be material to
earnings or financial position. This calculation assumes that each exchange
rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar.
Interest Rate Risk
Because the Company's obligations under the bank credit agreement bear
interest at floating rates, the Company is sensitive to changes in prevailing
interest rates. The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its long-term
debt interest rate exposure, rather than for trading purposes. A 10% increase
or decrease in market interest rates that effect the Company's interest rate
derivative instruments would not have a material impact on earnings during the
next fiscal year.
