• Integration going extremely well: synergy target increased to $85 million at December 9th Investor Day
• Relentless focus on guiding principles of safety first, employee collaboration and exceeding customer expectations
• Future revenue synergies are not part of these estimates and represent additional growth over the long term
SUSTAINABILITY FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
• Revenue from sustainable solutions grew
16% in 2021 and expected to grow 8-12% in
2022 as our innovation efforts and
collaboration with customers accelerates
• Investments centered around innovation and
global sustainability megatrends
o Enabling a circular economy –
Technologies that allow for increased use of
post-consumer recycled (PCR) material and
improve recyclability of plastics
o Light-weighting – Composites and CAI
applications to reduce weight and material
requirements, which minimize energy and
carbon emissions
o Eco-Conscious – Health and human safety
applications as well as Avient’s alternative
materials to replace lead, PVC, halogens,
BPA and other less eco-friendly options

We are a specialty formulator that enables many of the world’s products through innovation and custom
solutions.
We will deliver for our stakeholders through multiple value creation levers—many of
which are unique to Avient:
o Demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare, and composites, together with Clariant Color
revenue synergies, that will drive long-term revenue growth in excess of GDP
o Clariant color cost synergy capture will result in significant near-term benefit
In addition, we remain committed to increasing annual dividends in line with earnings growth and
opportunistically buying back shares, all while remaining modestly levered.

ColorMatrix™ rePrize is a PET compatible formulated liquid dispersion, designed to
increase the polymer chain length via reactive extrusion.
This results in an increase
in both the polymer intrinsic and melt viscosity. rePrize is suited to applications in:
• PET monolayer sheet
• PET multilayered sheet
• PET foamed sheet
rePrize can be used to optimise sheet manufacturing processes and product quality,
whilst allowing for increased levels of recycle, contributing towards improved
sustainability and reduced costs
