Avient’s chief operating decision maker uses these financial measures to monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of Avient and each business segment and to allocate resources.
Avient does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as outlook for Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Free Cash Flow to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking
basis because Avient is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort.

Avient’s business objective is to use conflict free materials and components in our products and expects our global supply chain partners to do the same.
Avient has elected to utilize the reporting template provided by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) formerly Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative, which facilitates the transfer of information through the supply chain regarding mineral country of origin as well as smelters and refiners being utilized.
The template also facilitates the identification of new smelters and refiners to potentially undergo an audit via the RMI Conflict– Free Smelter program.
