Knoll is a leading global manufacturer of commercial and residential furniture, accessories, lighting and coverings. The Company has included the financial results of Knoll in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. On October 11, 2021, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to our Restated Articles of Incorporation to change our corporate name from Herman Miller, Inc. to MillerKnoll, Inc. On November 1, 2021, the change in corporate name and change in the ticker symbol to MLKN became effective.

A global leader in design, MillerKnoll includes Herman Miller® and Knoll®, as well as Colebrook Bosson Saunders®, DatesWeiser®, Design Within Reach®, Edelman® Leather, ~~Fully®,~~ Geiger®, HAY®, Holly Hunt®, KnollTextiles®, Maars® Living Walls, Maharam®, Muuto®, NaughtOne®, and Spinneybeck®|FilzFelt®.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by MillerKnoll, Inc. in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Management believes the disclosures made in this document are adequate with respect to interim reporting requirements. Unless otherwise noted or indicated by the context, all references to "MillerKnoll," "we," "our," "Company" and similar references are to MillerKnoll, Inc., its predecessors, and controlled subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, taken as a whole, contain all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of ~~December 3, 2022.~~March 4, 2023. Operating results for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 3, 2023 ("fiscal 2023"). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2022 ("fiscal 2022"). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The financial statements of equity method investments are not consolidated.

Segment Reorganization

Effective as of May 29, 2022, the beginning of fiscal year 2023, the Company implemented an organizational change that resulted in a change in the reportable segments. The Company has recast historical results to reflect this change. See Note 15 "Operating Segments" for additional information.

Change in Accounting Principle

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company elected to change the method of accounting for the cost of certain inventories within the Americas segment from the last-in, first-out method (“LIFO”) to first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”). With this change

there are no longer any inventories accounted for under the LIFO method. The Company has retrospectively adjusted the Consolidated Financial Statements for the prior period presented to reflect this change.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company evaluates all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for consideration of their applicability to our consolidated financial statements. We have assessed all ASUs issued but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are not relevant to the Company or are not expected to have a material impact.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Knoll common stock (excluding shares exercising dissenters rights, shares owned by Knoll as treasury stock, shares owned by the deal parties or their subsidiaries, or shares subject to Knoll restricted stock awards) was converted into a right to receive 0.32 shares of Herman Miller, Inc. (now MillerKnoll, Inc.) common stock and $11.00 in cash, without interest. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred for Knoll was $1,887.3 million, which consisted of the following (in millions, except share amounts):

The aggregate cash paid in connection with the Knoll acquisition was $1,176.6 million. MillerKnoll funded the acquisition through cash on-hand and debt proceeds, as described in "Note 13. Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt."

Outstanding unvested restricted stock awards, performance stock awards, performance stock units and restricted stock units with a fair value of $53.4 million converted into Company awards. Of the total fair value, $22.4 million was allocated to purchase consideration and $31.0 million was allocated to future services and is being expensed over the remaining service periods on a straight-line basis. Per the terms of the converted awards any qualifying termination within the twelve months subsequent to the acquisition resulted in accelerated vesting and related recognition of expense.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination which requires that assets and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition:


(In millions)	Fair Value

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has more likely than not declined below its carrying value. When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first assess qualitative factors. If an initial qualitative assessment identifies that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, additional quantitative testing is performed. The Company may also elect to bypass the qualitative testing and proceed directly to the quantitative testing. If the quantitative testing indicates that goodwill is impaired, the carrying value of goodwill is written down to fair value.

Each of the reporting units was reviewed for impairment using a qualitative assessment as of March 31, 2022, our annual testing date. In performing the qualitative impairment test for fiscal year 2022, the Company determined that the fair value of its reporting units exceeded the carrying amount and, as such, these reporting units were not impaired.

In connection with the segment reorganization, the Company’s reporting units have changed in composition, and goodwill was reallocated between such reporting units using a relative fair value approach. Accordingly, the Company performed interim goodwill impairment tests in the first quarter of 2023 for each reporting unit. Based on the results of the tests performed, the Company determined that the fair value of each reporting unit, both before and after the reorganization, exceeded its respective carrying amount.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company assessed changes in circumstances that occurred during the quarter to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair values of any reporting units were below their carrying amounts. Although our annual impairment test is performed during the fourth quarter, we perform this qualitative assessment each interim reporting period.

While there was no single determinate event, the consideration in totality of several factors that developed during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 led us to conclude that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Global Retail reporting unit was below its carrying amount. These factors included: (i) the decision to discontinue stand-alone operations of the Fully brand and (ii) the assessment of our third quarter results, for which the performance of the Global Retail reporting unit was below management's expectations.

Accordingly, the Company performed an interim quantitative impairment analysis as of March 4, 2023 to determine the fair value of the Global Retail reporting unit as compared to the carrying value. In performing the quantitative impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of the Global Retail reporting unit exceeded the carrying amount and, as such, the reporting unit was not impaired. The Company determined that the Global Retail reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 1% and therefore has a heightened risk of future impairments if any assumptions, estimates or market factors change in the future. The Global Retail reporting unit has a goodwill carrying amount of $389.2 million as of March 4, 2023.

The Company generally uses the discounted cash flow method under a weighting of the income and market approach to estimate the fair value of our reporting units. These approaches are based on a discounted cash flow analysis and observable comparable company information that use several inputs, including:

•actual and forecasted revenue growth rates and operating margins,

•discount rates based on the reporting unit's weighted average cost of capital, and

•revenue and EBITDA of comparable companies

The Company has selected the assumptions used in the financial forecasts using historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions, management’s long-term strategic plans, and guideline companies.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not subject to amortization and are evaluated annually for impairment, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. Management has not identified any events or changes in circumstances that may indicate that an indefinite-lived intangible is more likely than not to be impaired as of the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

9. Stock-Based Compensation

The following table summarizes the stock-based compensation expense and related income tax effect for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended:

Three Months Ended Six Months Ended
(In millions) December 3, 2022 November 27, 2021 December 3, 2022 November 27, 2021
Stock-based compensation expense $ 5.5 $ 7.0 $ 10.9 $ 22.1
Related income tax effect $ 1.3 $ 1.6 $ 2.6 $ 5.3


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(In millions)	March 4, 2023		February 26, 2022		March 4, 2023		February 26, 2022
Stock-based compensation expense	$	4.8	$	4.9	$	15.7	$	27.0
Related income tax effect	$	1.2	$	1.2	$	3.8	$	6.6

The decrease in stock-based compensation expense infor the ~~current three and six month periods~~nine months ended March 4, 2023 as compared to the same ~~periods~~period of the prior year was driven primarily by the prior year's acceleration of stock-based compensation award expense related to the targeted workforce reductions implemented subsequent to the Knoll ~~integration.~~acquisition.

Certain Company equity-based compensation awards contain provisions that allow for continued vesting into retirement. Stock-based awards are considered fully vested for expense attribution purposes when the employee's retention of the award is no longer contingent on providing subsequent service.

10. Income Taxes

The Company's process for determining the provision for income taxes for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 involved using an estimated annual effective tax rate which was based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates across the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The effective tax rates were ~~19.8%~~31.2% and ~~77.6%~~15.6%, respectively, for the three month periods ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 and ~~November 27, 2021.~~February 26, 2022. The year over year change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 resulted from the current year quarter reporting minimal pre-tax book income with ~~favorable foreign tax credit~~unfavorable discrete compensation impacts in the United States. The same quarter of the prior year had no comparable impacts.

For the three months ended ~~December 3,~~March 4, 2023, the effective tax rate is higher than the United States federal statutory rate due to an unfavorable tax adjustment in the current quarter related to stock compensation and the absence in the current quarter of favorable tax adjustments in the prior quarter related to acquisition and restructure charges. For the three months ended February 26, 2022,the effective tax rate was lower than the United States federal statutory rate due to the impact of applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the year to date pre-tax loss.

The effective tax rates were 19.5% and 19.8%, respectively, for the nine months ended March 4, 2023 and February 26, 2022. The year over year decrease in the effective rate for the nine months ended March 4, 2023 resulted from favorable foreign tax

credit impacts in the United States whereas the prior year period had no comparable impacts. For the nine months ended March 4, 2023, the effective tax rate is lower than the United States federal statutory rate due to the favorable impact of increased foreign tax credits in the United States resulting from the recapture of prior year overall domestic loss. For the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~November 27, 2021,~~ ~~the effective tax rate is higher than the United States federal statutory rate due to the impact of applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the year to date pre-tax loss.~~

~~The effective tax rates were 19.2% and 18.8%, respectively, for the six months ended December 3,~~February 26, 2022, and November 27, 2021. The year over year increase in the effective rate for the six months ended December 3, 2022 resulted from pre-tax book income reported for the six months with favorable foreign tax credit impacts in the United States and the same six months in the prior year resulted from an overall pre-tax book loss reported for the six months coupled with non-deductible discrete compensation and acquisition costs in connection with the Knoll acquisition. For the six months ended December 3, 2022, the effective tax rate is lower than the United States federal statutory rate due to the favorable impact of increased foreign tax credits in the United States resulting from the recapture of prior year overall domestic loss. For the six months ended November 27, 2021, the effective tax rate is lower than the United States federal statutory rate due to the impact of applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to the year to date pre-tax loss, which included an adjustment impacted by non-deductible Knoll acquisition related costs.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits through ~~income~~Income tax expense in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Interest and penalties recognized in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income were negligible for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 and ~~November 27, 2021.~~February 26, 2022.

The Company's recorded liability for potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits was:


(In millions)	(In millions)	December 3, 2022		May 28, 2022		(In millions)	March 4, 2023		May 28, 2022
Liability for interest and penalties	Liability for interest and penalties	$	0.9	$	0.9	Liability for interest and penalties	$	0.9	$	0.9
Liability for uncertain tax positions, current	Liability for uncertain tax positions, current	$	2.0	$	2.3	Liability for uncertain tax positions, current	$	2.0	$	2.3

The Company is subject to periodic audits by domestic and foreign tax authorities. Currently, the Company is undergoing routine periodic audits in both domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions. It is reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits could change in the next twelve months because of the audits. Tax payments related to these audits, if any, are not expected to be material to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

For the majority of tax jurisdictions, the Company is no longer subject to state, local, or non-United States income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years before 2019.

11. Fair Value Measurements

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, ~~marketable securities,~~ accounts and notes receivable, a deferred compensation plan, accounts payable, debt, interest rate swaps, foreign currency exchange contracts, redeemable noncontrolling interests, indefinite-lived intangible assets and right-of-use assets. The Company's financial instruments, other than long-term debt, are recorded at fair value.

The carrying value and fair value of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities, is as follows for the periods indicated:


(In millions)	(In millions)	December 3, 2022		May 28, 2022		(In millions)	March 4, 2023		May 28, 2022

Fair value	Fair value	$	1,380.9	$	1,364.7	Fair value	$	1,393.0	$	1,364.7

The following describes the methods the Company uses to estimate the fair value of financial assets and liabilities recorded in net earnings, which have not significantly changed in the current period:

Cash and cash equivalents — The Company invests excess cash in short term investments in the form of money market funds, which are valued using net asset value ("NAV").

Deferred compensation plan — The Company's deferred compensation plan primarily includes various domestic and international mutual funds that are recorded at fair value using quoted prices for similar securities.

Foreign currency exchange contracts — The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts are valued using an approach based on foreign currency exchange rates obtained from active markets. The estimated fair value of forward currency exchange contracts is based on month-end spot rates as adjusted by market-based current activity. These forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments.

The following table sets forth financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through net income and the respective pricing levels to which the fair value measurements are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 and May 28, 2022.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company transacts business in various foreign currencies and has established a program that primarily utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risks associated with the effects of certain foreign currency exposures. Under this program, the Company's strategy is to have increases or decreases in our foreign currency exposures offset by gains or losses on the foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risks and volatility associated with foreign currency transaction gains or losses. Foreign currency exposures typically arise from net liability or asset exposures in non-functional currencies on the balance sheets of our foreign subsidiaries. Foreign currency forward contracts generally settle within 30 days and are not used for trading purposes.

These forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments. Accordingly, we record the fair value of these contracts as of the end of the reporting period in the Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in fair value recorded within the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The balance sheet classification for the fair values of these forward contracts is to "Other current assets" for unrealized gains and to "Other accrued liabilities" for unrealized losses. The Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income classification for the fair values of these forward contracts is to "Other (income) expense, net", for both realized and unrealized gains and losses.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rate changes and its overall cost of borrowing. The Company's interest rate swap agreements exchange variable rate interest payments for fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. The notional amount of the interest rate

swap agreements is used to measure interest to be paid or received. The differential paid or received on the interest rate swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense.

In February 2023, the Company entered into an additional interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap is for an aggregate notional amount of $150.0 million with a forward start date of March 3, 2023 and a termination date of January 3, 2029. As a result of the transaction, under the terms of the agreement the Company effectively will convert one month Spread Adjusted Term SOFR floating interest rate plus applicable margin to 3.95% fixed interest rate and adjustment % plus applicable margin as of the forward start date. "Spread adjusted Term SOFR" means Term SOFR plus an adjustment % that varies with tenor. The Company typically selects a one month tenor and that is calculated as the one month Term SOFR rate plus 0.11448%.

The interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges at inception and the facts and circumstances of the hedged relationships remain consistent with the initial quantitative effectiveness assessment in that the hedged instruments remain an effective accounting hedge as of ~~December 3, 2022.~~March 4, 2023. Since a designated derivative meets hedge accounting criteria, the fair value of the hedge is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax." The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is immediately recognized in earnings. The interest rate swap agreements are assessed for hedge effectiveness on a quarterly basis.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Product Warranties

The Company provides coverage to the end-user for parts and labor on products sold under its warranty policy and for other product-related matters. The specific terms, conditions and length of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold. The Company does not sell or otherwise issue warranties or warranty extensions as stand-alone products. Reserves have been established for various costs associated with the Company's warranty programs. General warranty reserves are based on historical claims experience and other currently available information and are periodically adjusted for business levels and other factors. Specific reserves are established once an issue is identified with the amounts for such reserves based on the estimated cost of correction. The Company provides an assurance-type warranty that ensures that products will function as intended. As such, the Company's estimated warranty obligation is accounted for as a liability and is recorded within current and long-term liabilities within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Changes in the warranty reserve for the stated periods were as follows:

Guarantees

The Company is periodically required to provide performance bonds to do business with certain customers. These arrangements are common in the industry and generally have terms ranging between one year and three years. The bonds are required to provide assurance to customers that the products and services they have purchased will be installed and/or provided properly and without damage to their facilities. The bonds are provided by various bonding agencies. However, the Company is ultimately liable for claims that may occur against them. As of ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, the Company had a maximum financial exposure related to performance bonds totaling approximately ~~$8.1~~$8.2 million. The Company has no history of claims, nor is it aware of circumstances that would require it to pay, under any of these arrangements. The Company also believes that the resolution of any claims that might arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not materially affect the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded in respect to these bonds as of either ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 or May 28, 2022.

The Company has entered into standby letter of credit arrangements for purposes of protecting various insurance companies and lessors against default on insurance premium and lease payments. As of ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, the Company had a maximum financial exposure from these standby letters of credit totaling approximately $14.1 million, all of which is considered usage against the Company's revolving line of credit. The Company has no history of claims, nor is it aware of circumstances that would require it to perform under any of these arrangements and believes that the resolution of any claims that might arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not materially affect the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded with respect to these arrangements as of ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 or May 28, 2022.

Contingencies

The Company is also involved in legal proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such proceedings and litigation currently pending will not have a material adverse effect, if any, on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In connection with the acquisition of Knoll, in July, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement that provided for a syndicated revolving line of credit and two term loans. The revolving line of credit provides the Company with up to $725 million in revolving variable rate interest borrowing capacity that matures in July 2026, replacing the previous $500 million syndicated revolving line of credit. The term loans consist of a five-year senior secured term loan "A" facility with an aggregate principal amount of $400 million and a seven-year senior secured term loan "B" facility with an aggregate principal amount of $625 million, the proceeds of which were used to finance a portion of the cash consideration for the acquisition of Knoll, for the repayment of certain debt of Knoll and to pay fees, costs and expenses related thereto. ~~Both term loans have a LIBOR-based floating interest rate plus applicable margin. The~~In January 2023, the company entered into the 2nd Amendment to the credit agreement ~~provides for~~which transitioned the ~~transition~~benchmark rate from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") for U.S. dollar borrowings. SOFR is the recommended risk-free reference rate of the Federal Reserve Board and Alternative Reference Rates Committee, as ~~of the LIBOR Transition Date, as~~ defined within the credit agreement. ~~The credit agreement includes accommodations regarding the transition to SOFR.~~ During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~November 27, 2021,~~February 26, 2022, the Company repaid $64 million of private placement notes due May 20, 2030 and a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $13.4 million was recognized as part of the repayment of the private placement notes, which represented the premium on early redemption. The Company made ~~quarterly~~total principal payments on term loan "A" and "B" during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3,~~March 4, 2023 in the amount of $15.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively. The Company made total principal payments on term loan "A" and "B" during the nine months ended February 26, 2022 in the amount of $5.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

~~Available borrowings under the syndicated revolving line of credit were as follows for the periods indicated:~~

Supplier Financing Program

The Company has an agreement with a third-party financial institution that allows certain participating suppliers the ability to finance payment obligations of the Company. Under this program, participating suppliers may finance payment obligations of the Company, prior to their scheduled due dates, at a discounted price to the third-party financial institution.

The Company has lengthened the payment terms for certain suppliers that have chosen to participate in the program. As a result, certain amounts due to suppliers have payment terms that are longer than standard industry practice and as such, these amounts have been excluded from “Accounts payable” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the amounts have been accounted for by the Company as current debt, within “Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt”. As of ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, the liability related to the supplier financing program is ~~$2.6~~$2.1 million.

15. Operating Segments

Effective as of May 29, 2022, the beginning of fiscal year 2023, the Company implemented an organizational change that resulted in a change in the reportable segments. The Company has restated historical results to reflect this change. Below is a summary of the change in reportable segments.

•The reportable segments now consist of three segments: Americas Contract ("Americas"), International Contract & Specialty ("International & Specialty"), and Global Retail ("Retail").

•The activities related to the manufacture and sale of furniture products direct to consumers and third-party retailers for the Knoll ~~Muuto~~ and ~~Fully~~Muuto brands that were previously reported within the Knoll segment have been moved to the Global Retail segment.

•The activities related to the manufacture and sale of furniture products in the Americas for the Knoll, Muuto and Datesweiser brands that were previously reported within the Knoll segment have been moved to the Americas Contract segment.

•The activities related to the manufacture and sale of furniture products in geographies other than the Americas for the Knoll and Muuto brands have been moved to the International Contract & Specialty segment.

•The activities related to manufacture and sale of products for the Maharam brand have been moved from the Americas Contract segment to the International Contract & Specialty segment, along with the activities of Holly Hunt, Spinneybeck, Knoll Textiles, and Edelman, which were previously reported within the Knoll segment.

The Americas Contract segment includes the operations associated with the design, manufacture and sale of furniture products directly or indirectly through an independent dealership network for office, healthcare, and educational environments throughout North and South America.

The International Contract and Specialty segment includes the operations associated with the design, manufacture and sale of furniture products, indirectly or directly through an independent dealership network in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific as well as the global activities of the Specialty brands, which include Holly Hunt, Spinneybeck, Maharam, Edelman, and Knoll Textiles.

The Global Retail segment includes global operations associated with the sale of modern design furnishings and accessories to third party retailers, as well as direct to consumer sales through eCommerce, direct-mail catalogs, and physical retail stores.

The Company also reports a “Corporate” category consisting primarily of unallocated expenses related to general corporate functions, including, but not limited to, certain legal, executive, corporate finance, information technology, administrative and acquisition-related costs. Management regularly reviews corporate costs and believes disclosing such information provides more visibility and transparency regarding how the chief operating decision maker reviews results of the Company. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those of the Company.

The following is a summary of certain key financial measures for the respective periods indicated:

Many of the Company's assets, including manufacturing, office and showroom facilities, support multiple segments. For that reason, it is impractical to disclose asset information on a segment basis.

16. Restructuring and Integration Expense

As part of restructuring and integration activities the Company has incurred expenses that qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include severance and employee benefit costs as well as other direct separation benefit costs. Severance and employee benefit costs primarily relate to cash severance, as well as non-cash severance, including accelerated equity award compensation expense. The Company also incurs expenses that are an integral component of, and directly attributable to, our restructuring and integration activities, which do not qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP. These include integration implementation costs that relate primarily to professional fees and non-cash losses incurred on debt extinguishment.

The expense associated with integration initiatives are included in Selling, general and administrative and the expense associated with restructuring activities are included in Restructuring expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Non-cash costs related to debt extinguishment in the financing of the transaction is recorded in Other expense (income), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Knoll Integration:

Following the Knoll acquisition, the Company announced a multi-year program (the "Knoll Integration") designed to reduce costs and integrate and optimize operations of the combined organization. The Company currently expects that the Knoll Integration will result in pre-tax cash costs that are expected to be approximately $140 million, comprised of the following categories:

•Severance and employee benefit costs associated with plans to integrate our operating structure, resulting in workforce reductions. These costs will primarily include: severance and employee benefits (cash severance, non-cash severance, including accelerated stock-compensation award expense and other termination benefits).

•Exit and disposal activities include those incurred as a direct result of integration activities, primarily including ~~contract~~the reorganization and ~~lease terminations and~~consolidation of facilities as well as asset impairment charges.

•Other integration costs include professional fees and other incremental third-party expenses, including a loss on extinguishment of debt associated with financing of the Knoll acquisition.

2122

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, we incurred ~~$8.7~~$12.7 million of costs related to the Knoll Integration including: ~~$1.4~~$3.1 million of severance and employee benefit costs, ~~$2.8~~$3.6 million of lease termination fees, and ~~$4.5~~$6.0 million of other integration costs.

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~November 27, 2021,~~February 26, 2022, we incurred ~~$95.8~~$101.7 million of costs related to the Knoll Integration including: ~~$46.4~~$49.9 million of severance and employee benefit costs, $15.5 million of non-cash asset impairments, $13.4 million of non-cash costs related to debt-extinguishment in the financing of the transaction, and ~~$20.5~~$22.9 million of other integration costs.

The following table provides an analysis of the changes in liability balance for Knoll Integration costs that qualify as exit and disposal costs under U.S. GAAP (i.e., severance and employee benefit costs and exit and disposal activities) for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022:~~March 4, 2023:

2023 Restructuring Plan

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company announced a restructuring plan ("2023 restructuring plan") to reduce expenses. These restructuring activities included voluntary and involuntary reductions in workforces. As the result of these actions, the Company projects an annualized expense reduction of approximately $30 million to $35 million. In connection with the 2023 restructuring plan, the Company incurred severance and related charges of ~~$14.7~~$4.6 million and ~~$15.2~~$19.8 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, respectively. These charges consisted solely of cash expenditures for employee termination and severance costs to be paid in fiscal 2023.

Impairment of Fully

In the third quarter of fiscal 2023 the decision was made to cease operating Fully as a stand-alone brand and sales channel and instead sell certain Fully products through other channels of the Global Retail business. As a result of this decision, the Company recorded asset Impairment charges of $37.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

The table below provides information related to the impairments recognized during the third quarter of fiscal 2023. These charges are included in "Impairment charges" and "Cost of sales" within the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

17. Variable Interest Entities

The Company entered into notes receivable with certain of its third-party independently owned dealers that are deemed to be variable interests in variable interest entities. The carrying value of these notes receivable was $5.7 million and $1.2 million as of ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 and May 28, 2022 respectively. This carrying value of long-term notes receivable represents the Company’s maximum exposure to loss. The Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary for any of these variable interest entities as each dealer controls the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, including sales, marketing, and operations.

The following summary includes the Company's view of the economic environment in which it operates:

•During the quarter the Company continued to experience the impact of economic uncertainty in many of the geographies and markets in which we operate. The Company believes that our third quarter financial results reflect how our diversified business model, with brands across multiple channels, customer segments and geographies, provides risk diversification and opportunities for future growth.

•The Company's financial performance is sensitive to changes in certain input costs, including steel and steel component parts. Ongoing cost reduction initiatives and price increase actions have been implemented to help offset these cost pressures, and the benefit from these initiatives is expected to increase over time.

•During the quarter the Company has continued to experience the impact of economic uncertainty in many of the geographies and markets in which we operate. The Company believes that our second quarter financial results reflect

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report contains non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, nor an alternative to, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and may be different from non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to the related GAAP measurement. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items. We compensate for these limitations by providing equal prominence of our GAAP results. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are provided in the financial tables included within this report. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures are useful for investors as they provide financial information on a more comparative basis for the periods presented.

The non-GAAP financial measures referenced within this report include: Adjusted Earnings per Share and Organic Growth (Decline).

Adjusted Earnings per Share represents reported diluted earnings per share excluding the impact from amortization of purchased intangibles, acquisition and integration charges, debt extinguishment charges, restructuring charges, impairment charges, other special charges or gains and the related tax effect of those adjustments. These adjustments are described further below.

Organic Growth (Decline) represents the change in sales and orders, excluding currency translation effects, the impact of an additional week in the fiscal 2023 and the impact of acquisitions and divestitures.

The adjustments made to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures are as follows:

•Amortization of Purchased Intangibles: Includes expenses associated with the amortization of inventory step-up and amortization of acquisition related intangibles acquired as part of the Knoll acquisition. The revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP financial measure. We exclude the impact of the amortization of purchased intangibles, including the fair value adjustment to inventory, as such non-cash

amounts were significantly impacted by the size of the Knoll acquisition. Furthermore, we believe that this adjustment

enables better comparison of our results as Amortization of Purchased Intangibles will not recur in future periods once such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets. Although we exclude the Amortization of Purchased Intangibles in these non-GAAP measures, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.

•Acquisition and Integration Charges: Costs related directly to the Knoll acquisition including legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as integration-related costs. Integration-related costs include severance, accelerated stock-based compensation expenses, asset impairment charges, and expenses related to other cost reduction efforts or reorganization initiatives.

•Debt Extinguishment Charges: Includes expenses associated with the extinguishment of debt as part of financing the Knoll acquisition. We excluded these items from our non-GAAP measures because they relate to a specific transaction and are not reflective of our ongoing financial performance.

•Restructuring charges: Includes actions involving targeted workforce reductions.

•Impairment charges: Includes non-cash, pre-tax charges for the impairment of assets associated with the decision to cease operating Fully as a stand-alone brand.

•Special charges: Include certain costs arising as a direct result of COVID-19 pandemic.

•Tax ~~Related Items:~~related items: We excluded the income tax benefit/provision effect of the tax related items from our non-GAAP measures because they are not associated with the tax expense on our ongoing operating results.

Cash Flows - Operating Activities

The principal source of our operating cash flow is net earnings, meaning cash receipts from the sale of our products, net of costs to manufacture, distribute, and market our products. Net cash ~~used in~~provided by operating activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 totaled ~~$5.3~~$70.4 million, as compared to cash used of ~~$57.6~~$57.9 million in the same period of the prior year. The ~~decrease~~increase in cash ~~outflow~~inflow is due primarily to an increase in earnings in the current ~~quarter~~nine month period compared to the same period of the prior ~~year.~~year as well as a reduction in working capital. Our working capital consists primarily of receivables from customers, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued compensation, and accrued other expenses. The timing of collection of our receivables, and the timing of spending commitments and payments of our accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued compensation and related benefits, all affect these account balances.

Cash Flows - Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 was ~~$32.0~~$53.2 million, as compared to ~~$1,133.8~~$1,145.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash outflow in the current year, compared to the prior year, was primarily due to the acquisition of Knoll, which drove a cash outflow, net of cash acquired, of $1,088.5 million in the prior year period. In the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, we were advanced $13.5 million of cash against the value of company owned life insurance policies. This is reflected as cash proceeds from investing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

At the end of the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2023, there were outstanding commitments for capital purchases of ~~$17.9~~$19.7 million. The Company plans to fund these commitments through a combination of cash on hand and cash flows from operations. The Company expects full-year capital purchases to be between ~~$90~~$80 million and ~~$100~~$90 million, which will be primarily related to investments in the Company's facilities and equipment. This compares to full-year capital spending of $94.7 million in fiscal 2022. Capital expenditures through for the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal 2023 of ~~$40.3~~$60.6 million are ~~$6.0~~$5.2 million less than the same period of the prior year.

Cash Flows - Financing Activities

Cash ~~provided from~~used in financing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~December 3, 2022~~March 4, 2023 was ~~$11.6~~$22.1 million, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of ~~$1,035.5~~$1,061.4 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash provided in the current year, compared to the prior year, was primarily due to net borrowings of $1,007.0 million ~~from~~under the credit agreement the Company entered into during the prior year.

Sources of Liquidity

The Company has taken actions to safeguard its cash flow and liquidity position in the current environment. The Company is closely managing spending levels, capital investments, and working capital.

The Company maintains an open market share repurchase program under our existing share repurchase authorization and may repurchase shares from time to time based on management’s evaluation of market conditions, share price and other factors.

At the end of the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company had a well-positioned balance sheet and liquidity profile. The Company has access to liquidity through credit facilities, cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments. These sources have been summarized below. For additional information, refer to Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.


(In millions)	(In millions)	December 3, 2022		May 28, 2022		(In millions)	March 4, 2023		May 28, 2022

Total liquidity	Total liquidity	$	428.4	$	526.9	Total liquidity	$	459.5	$	526.9

Of the ~~cash~~Cash and cash equivalents noted above at the end of the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company had ~~$181.6~~$200.9 million of ~~cash~~Cash and cash equivalents held outside the United States.

The Company’s syndicated revolving line of credit, which matures in July, 2026, provides the Company with up to $725 million in revolving variable interest borrowing capacity and allows the Company to borrow incremental amounts, at its option, subject to negotiated terms as outlined in the agreement. Outstanding borrowings bear interest at rates based on the prime rate, federal funds rate, ~~LIBOR~~SOFR or negotiated terms as outlined in the agreement.

As of ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, the total debt outstanding related to borrowings under the syndicated revolving line of credit was ~~$480.0~~$468.5 million with available borrowings against this facility of ~~$230.9~~$242.4 million.

The Company intends to repatriate $185.0 million of undistributed foreign earnings of which ~~$104.9~~$104.0 million is held in cash in certain foreign jurisdictions with the remainder recorded in working capital. The Company has recorded a $6.3 million deferred tax liability related to foreign withholding taxes on these future dividends received in the U.S. from foreign subsidiaries. A significant portion of the $185.0 million of undistributed foreign earnings was previously taxed under the U.S. Tax Cut and Jobs Act (TCJA). The Company intends to remain indefinitely reinvested in the remaining undistributed earnings outside the U.S. which is estimated to be approximately $250.2 million on ~~December 3, 2022.~~March 4, 2023.

The Company believes cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and borrowing capacity will provide adequate liquidity to fund near term and foreseeable future business operations, capital needs, future dividends and share repurchases, subject to financing availability in the marketplace.

Contractual Obligations

A table summarizing the amounts and estimated timing of these future cash payments as of May 28, 2022 was provided in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2022. There have been no material changes in such obligations since that date.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2022 has not changed materially. The nature of market risks from interest rates and commodity prices has not changed materially during the first ~~six~~nine months of fiscal 2023.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company primarily manufactures its products in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, China, Italy, India, Mexico and Brazil. It also sources completed products and product components from outside the United States. The Company's completed products are sold in numerous countries around the world. Sales in foreign countries as well as certain expenses related to those sales are transacted in currencies other than the Company's reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, production costs and profit margins related to these sales are affected by the currency exchange relationship between the countries where the sales take place and the countries where the products are sourced or manufactured. These currency exchange relationships can also impact the Company's competitive positions within these markets.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts denominated in foreign currencies. The principal foreign currencies in which the Company conducts its business are the British pound sterling, euro, Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, Hong Kong dollar, Chinese renminbi, and the Danish krone. Changes in the fair value of such contracts are reported in earnings in the period the value of the contract changes. The net gain or loss upon settlement and the change in fair value of outstanding contracts is recorded as a component of Other (income) expense, net.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of ~~December 3, 2022,~~March 4, 2023, and the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of that date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1: Legal Proceedings

There have been no material changes in the Company's legal proceedings from those set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, 2022.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in the Company's risk factors from those set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 28, ~~2022.~~2022, except for the addition of the following risk factor:

Recent events affecting the financial services industry could have an adverse impact on the Company's business operations, financial condition, and results of operations.

The closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank have created bank-specific and broader financial institution liquidity risk and concerns. Future adverse developments with respect to specific financial institutions or the broader financial services industry may lead to market-wide liquidity shortages, impair the ability of companies to access working capital needs, and create additional market and economic uncertainty.

Although the Company does not have any deposits with any of the banks that have been placed into receivership to date, some of our customers may have deposits with them, which may expose us to potential risks that could impact our financial position and operations. This could include an adverse impact on the ability of our customers to pay amounts they owe to the Company. In addition, if any of our vendors have relationships with any of the banks that have been closed, it could negatively impact their ability to deliver goods and services to the Company.

More generally, these events have resulted in market disruption and volatility and could lead to greater instability in the credit and financial markets and a deterioration in confidence in economic conditions. Our operations may be adversely affected by any such economic downturn, liquidity shortages, volatile business environments, or unpredictable market conditions. These events could also make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult and/or costly.

The future effect of these events on the financial services industry and broader economy are unknown and difficult to predict but could include failures of other financial institutions to which we or our customers, vendors, or other counterparties face direct or more significant exposure. Any such developments could adversely impact our results of operation and financial position. There may be other risks we have not yet identified. We are working to identify any potential impact of these events on our business in order to minimize any disruptions to our operations. However, we cannot guarantee we will be able to avoid any negative consequences relating to these recent developments or any future related developments.
