Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income attributable to PolyOne common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to PolyOne common
shareholders and operating income before special items 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.

Industry
A circular economy would reduce the cost of materials and production, which in turn
creates savings for industries.
Industry Infrastructure & Technology
Investment is needed to create the systems and industries that allow for goods and
materials to re-enter the production cycle.
Industries
often choose a material because they are economically advantageous, but this
also means the material can have low residual value.
