SELECT COMFORT
PROFIT SHARING AND 401(k) PLAN
 



The Plan Administrator and Investment Committee of the
Select Comfort Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Select Comfort Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s administrator. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule H, Line 4i – Schedule of Assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2011 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s administrator. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

SELECT COMFORT
PROFIT SHARING AND 401(k) PLAN
December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
(1)
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following brief description of the Select Comfort (“Company”) Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (“Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
 
General – The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees. A full-time employee is eligible on the first day of the calendar month following 30 days of employment provided the employee is age 21 or older. A part-time employee is eligible after completing one year of at least 1,000 hours of service and is age 21 or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). The inception date of the Plan was January 1, 1994.
 
Recordkeeper and Custodian – The Plan assets are in the custody of The Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”). Prudential is the recordkeeper, custodian and trustee of the Plan.
 
Contributions – Each year, participants may contribute a percentage of eligible earnings, as defined by the Plan. Participants can contribute up to 50% of eligible earnings. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or contribution plans. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the calendar year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. Company contributions are determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Company discretionary contributions for 2011 and 2010, net of forfeitures, were $1,834,219 and $1,023,598, respectively.
 
Participant Accounts – Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions, the Company’s discretionary contributions, if applicable, and Plan earnings.
 
Vesting – Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company’s discretionary contributions to their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of service. Participants are vested 25% upon the completion of one year, 50% after two years, 75% after three years, and fully vested after completion of four years of service, or if they have reached normal retirement age of 65, die, or become disabled.
 
Forfeitures – Forfeited non-vested accounts are used to either reduce Company contributions or to pay administrative expenses. The balance of forfeited non-vested accounts at December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $0 and $27,425, respectively. Forfeitures of non-vested amounts were used to pay Plan expenses of $25,021 and $20,000, in 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, forfeitures of non-vested amounts were used to pay $88,495 and $310,000, of the Company’s 2011 and 2010 contributions, respectively.
 
Notes Receivable – Participants – Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000, or 50% of their vested account balance. Loans are made on a pro-rata basis from all investment funds in which a participant’s account is invested. Loan terms range from one to five years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account. Loans bear interest at the prime rate plus one percentage point. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions not less frequently than quarterly.
 
Notes receivable – participants are valued at their outstanding balances.
 
Investment Options – Upon enrollment in the Plan, participants may direct their contributions in 1% increments into any of the eleven investment funds, Company common stock, or the Self-Directed Brokerage Account. Participants may modify their investment options daily.
 
The following descriptions summarize the investment philosophy of the various investment alternatives offered through Prudential as outlined in the fund literature:

Prudential Guaranteed Income Fund – Fixed-interest annuity backed by Prudential Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company’s general account. Funds are invested primarily in private placement bonds, intermediate-term bonds, and commercial mortgages.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Accounting – The accompanying financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition – The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value, which is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 6, Fair Value Measurements, for the disclosure of the Plan’s fair value measurements.
 
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
Payment of Benefits – Benefit payments are recorded upon distribution.
 
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of change in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and as such requires the use of judgment. Future results could be materially affected if actual results differ from these estimates and assumptions.
 
Risks and Uncertainties – The Plan provides for investment, at the participant’s option, in any combination of the Company’s common stock, investment funds, a guaranteed investment contract or a self-directed brokerage account which enables participants to invest in mutual funds or publicly traded stocks with a share value of greater than $5.00. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk and uncertainty, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of the investments will occur in the near term, and such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances, and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.
 
Concentration of Market Risk – At December 31, 2011 and 2010, approximately 25% and 21%, respectively, of the Plan’s net assets were invested in the common stock of the Company. The underlying value of the Company’s common stock is entirely dependent upon the performance of the Company and the market’s evaluation of such performance. It is at least reasonably possible that changes in the fair value of the Company’s common stock could materially affect participants’ account balances, and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.
 
New Accounting Standards – In May 2011, the FASB issued new guidance regarding fair value measurements. The new guidance changes the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements to ensure consistency between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. This guidance is effective prospectively for the Plan year ending December 31, 2012. The Plan Administrator is currently evaluating the impact of this pending adoption on the Plan’s financial statements.
 
Subsequent Events – Events that have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2011 have been evaluated through the date these financial statements were issued. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements as of or for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.

(3)
PLAN TERMINATION
 
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

(4)
FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
 
The Plan has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated January 12, 2009 indicating that the Plan is designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, no provisions for income taxes have been made.

U.S. GAAP requires Plan management to evaluate uncertain tax positions taken by the Plan. The financial statement effects of a tax position are recognized when the position is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, to be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service.  The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Plan has recognized no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.  The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2008.

(5)
GROUP ANNUITY INSURANCE CONTRACT
 
The Prudential Guaranteed Income Fund (“Fund”) offers a full guarantee on principal and interest by Prudential Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company (“Issuer”), an affiliate of the trustee. Investment contracts held in the Fund are recorded at their contract value. Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. As the Fund’s interest rates are adjusted to market semi-annually, on July 1 and January 1, contract value, which represents net contributions plus interest at the contract rate, approximates fair value. The contracts are fully benefit responsive.
 
The Fund qualifies as a fully benefit-responsive investment contract because it meets all of the following criteria:
 
 
a.
The investment contract is effected directly between the Fund and the Issuer and prohibits the Fund from assigning or selling the contract or its proceeds to another party without the consent of the Issuer.

 
b.
The contract Issuer is obligated to (i) repay principal and interest, or (ii) apply prospective crediting rate adjustments with an assurance the crediting rate will not be less than zero.
 
 
c.
The terms of the investment contract require all permitted participant-initiated transactions with the Fund to occur at contract value with no conditions, limits, or restrictions. Permitted participant-initiated transactions are those transactions allowed by the underlying defined-contribution plan, such as withdrawals for benefits, loans, or transfers to other funds within the Plan.
 
 
d.
An event that limits the ability of the Fund to transact at contract value with the Issuer (for example, premature termination of the contracts by the Fund, plant closings, plan termination, bankruptcy, mergers, and early retirement incentives) and that also limits the ability of the Fund to transact at contract value with the participants in the Fund must be probable of not occurring.
 
 
e.
The Fund itself must allow participants reasonable access to their funds.
 
The interest crediting rate is determined semi-annually and during 2011 and 2010 resulted in an average annual yield earned and credited to participants of approximately 2.25% and 2.50%, respectively. The minimum crediting rate is 1.50%. The interest crediting rate is calculated based upon many factors, including current economic and market conditions, the general interest rate environment, and both the expected and actual experience of a reference portfolio within the Issuer’s general account.
 
For information related to fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, refer to Note 6, Fair Value Measurements.

There is no event that limits the ability of the Plan to transact at contract value with the Issuer. There are also no events or circumstances that would allow the Issuer to terminate the fully benefit-responsive group annuity insurance contract with the Plan and settle at an amount different from contract value.
 
The credit rating of the Issuer at December 31, 2011 was A2 as reported by Moody’s Investors Service.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
The FASB’s guidance for fair value measurements establishes the authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and outlines the required disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs as follows:
 
•
Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
•
Level 2 – inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
•
Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Outlined below are descriptions of the valuation methodologies used to measure assets at fair value.  There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2011 compared with the prior year.

Pooled Separate Accounts – The pooled separate accounts invest mainly in domestic stocks, international stocks, domestic bonds and balanced funds.  The fair value of participation units owned by the Plan in the pooled separate accounts is based on unit values on the last business day of the Plan year.

Domestic Stocks:  The fair value of the underlying domestic stocks are determined by the closing price from the applicable stock exchange (Level 1) and are used in determining the net asset value (“NAV”) of the pooled separate accounts, which is not publicly quoted.
International Stocks:  The fair value of the international stocks have observable Level 1 pricing inputs, including closing quoted prices from the appropriate local stock exchange. Prudential subscribes to the Fair Value Evaluation Service provided by Interactive Data Corporation (“IDC”), which seeks to update prices in the event there are material U.S. market movements between local stock exchange closing time and portfolio valuation time.
Domestic Bonds: These investments are typically composed primarily of domestic fixed-income securities. Securities are priced by IDC using inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quote, and issuer spreads. IDC also monitors market indices, and industry and economic events, including credit rating agency actions.
Balanced Fund:  The fair value of the balanced fund (currently the SA/Oakmark Equity & Income Strategy) is based on the individual securities included in the fund. The SA/Oakmark Equity & Income Strategy fund invests primarily in domestic stocks and bonds, but may include some international stocks.  See the valuation methodologies for domestic stocks, international stocks and domestic bonds described above which are applied to the securities held in the balanced fund.

Select Comfort Corporation Common Stock – Select Comfort Corporation common stock is valued at the quoted market price on the last business day of the Plan year.

Guaranteed Investment Contract – The fair value of the guaranteed investment contract is estimated using the current yields of similar investments in the marketplace with comparable durations and the overall creditworthiness of the Issuer.

Mutual Funds – The fair value of mutual funds are determined by NAV of shares held by the plan on the last business day of the Plan year.

Self-Directed Brokerage Account – The fair value of the individual investments are valued at the NAV of shares held by the plan on the last business day of the Plan year.

The valuation methods described could result in fair values that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  Furthermore, while the Plan Administrator believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

At December 31, 2011, the Plan had no unfunded commitments related to the Pooled Separate Account funds. The redemption of the Pooled Separate Account funds is subject to the preference of the individual Plan participants and contains no restrictions on the timing of redemptions.
