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.
