CONTOUR
Where possible, contouring the products’
exterior form, as shown in Figure 5, can help to
eliminate pooling of fluids.
Figure 11 shows an
example of a standard spiral molded-in insert
that does a good job of minimizing sharp edges.

Holes should follow best practices for a
polymer’s viscosity and tensile strength when
determining the ideal distance to the edge
versus the wall thickness.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS)
attributable to PolyOne common shareholders and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to assess performance and allocate resources
because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and that current levels may serve as a base for future performance.
