Somnigroup reaffirmed its commitment to pursuing a transaction designed to deliver significant value to the shareholders of both companies. The proposed deal, announced on December 1, 2025, values Leggett & Platt at $12 per share, representing a 30% premium over the unaffected 30-day average stock price, and provides shareholders an opportunity to participate in the growth of the combined company. Somnigroup has stated it will not revise this proposal before the customary due diligence process.
Completion of the transaction is contingent on reaching a definitive agreement and satisfying customary closing conditions, including Leggett & Platt shareholder approval and regulatory approvals. The transaction does not require financing contingencies or approval by Somnigroup's shareholders.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC serves as financial advisor, and Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP as legal advisor to Somnigroup.
