1 The “Trade accounts receivable” and “Other notes receivable” line items above include $25.0 and $26.0 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, from a customer in our Bedding Products segment who is experiencing financial difficulty and liquidity problems. This customer was placed on nonaccrual status in 2018, and became delinquent in quarterly interest payments in the first quarter of 2020. As a result, we increased and fully reserved the balances for this customer in the first quarter of 2020. The reserve for this customer was $25.0 ($23.0 for the note and $2.0 for the trade receivable) at September 30, 2020, and $16.0 ($15.0 for the note and $1.0 for the trade receivable) at December 31, 2019.

2 The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have adversely impacted the operations of many of our customers, which have and could further impact their ability to pay their debts to us. As a result, we increased the reserves on "Trade accounts receivable" to reflect this increased collectibility risk.
