Special items for the fourth quarter of 2022 had a $(0.42) impact on EPS and included acquisition-related costs that primarily consist of inventory step-up adjustments, restructuring costs, debt extinguishment costs, and a pension market-to-market adjustment. 2 On a pro forma basis, fourth quarter and full year adjusted EPS were $0.42 and $3.04, respectively, which excludes special items and intangible amortization expense, exceeding previous guidance of $0.33 and $2.95. That being said, versus the prior year, global demand conditions and inventory destocking negatively impacted nearly every industry and region during the quarter,” Mr. Three Months Ended December 31, 2022 2021 GAAP Results Special Items Adjusted Results GAAP Results Special Items Adjusted Results (Loss) income from continuing operations before income taxes $ (77.4) $ 104.3 $ 26.9 $ 27.4 $ 20.5 $ 47.9 Income tax benefit (expense) - GAAP 60.8 — 60.8 (17.1) — (17.1) Income tax impact of special items (Attachment 3) — (26.8) (26.8) — (4.1) (4.1) Tax adjustments (Attachment 3) — (39.2) (39.2) — 7.5 7.5 Income tax benefit (expense) $ 60.8 $ (66.0) $ (5.2) $ (17.1) $ 3.4 $ (13.7) Effective Tax Rate(1) 78.5 % 19.6 % 62.4 % 28.6 % (1) Rates may not recalculate from figures presented herein due to rounding 15 Year Ended December 31, 2022 2021 GAAP Results Special Items Adjusted Results GAAP Results Special Items Adjusted Results Income from continuing operations before income taxes $ 63.8 $ 194.0 $ 257.8 $ 203.5 $ 57.1 $ 260.6 Income tax benefit (expense) - GAAP 19.3 — 19.3 (51.9) — (51.9) Income tax impact of special items (Attachment 3) — (49.4) (49.4) — (13.0) (13.0) Tax adjustments (Attachment 3) — (28.4) (28.4) — 5.9 5.9 Income tax expense $ 19.3 $ (77.8) $ (58.5) $ (51.9) $ (7.1) $ (59.0) Effective Tax Rate(1) (30.2)% 22.7 % 25.5 % 22.7 % (1) Rates may not recalculate from figures presented herein due to rounding Three Months Ended Year Ended Reconciliation of Pro Forma Adjusted Earnings per Share December 31, 2022 Net (loss) income from continuing operations attributable to Avient shareholders $ (17.0) $ 82.8 Special items, after tax (Attachment 3) 38.3 116.2 Amortization expense, after-tax (Attachment 1) 14.6 49.0 Adjusted net income from continuing operations excluding special items 35.9 248.0 APM pro forma adjustments to net income from continuing operations* 2.5 13.6 APM amortization expense, after tax* — 19.1 Pro forma adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Avient shareholders $ 38.4 $ 280.7 Weighted average diluted shares 91.7 92.2 Pro forma adjusted EPS - excluding special items $ 0.42 $ 3.04 * Pro forma adjustment for January - August 2022 APM results (period before Avient ownership) including the impacts of debt financing and prepayments on net income from continuing operations.

High viscosity flow. High molded-in stress. High shear in the material.

High viscosity flow. High molded-in stress. High shear in the material.

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoset composites combine high molecular weight resins with glass or carbon fibers. These products can operate at high temperatures and have strong mechanical properties. The fibers will pull and eventually fracture but will withstand high loads due to the high tensile modulus of the reinforcement.

Relative viscosity and shear rate can be calculated using the equations below. 3 Fountain Flow Plastic materials exhibit fountain flow due to the high viscosities and high aspect ratios. Because this material has such a high heat transfer rate, it tends to freeze off quickly. This pressure is high at the gate area and low at the end of fill.

SEBS TPEs can have elongation as high as 1,200 percent. For high elongation SEBS grades, hot runner tools with valve gates can be used. Under some circumstances, too high shear rates may cause phase separation.
