PERFORMANCE ADDITIVES
• Cesa™ Nox A4R Additives for Enhanced
Recycling protect polymers against
degradation by enhancing the autocatalytic
cycle of radicals caused by O2 and heat during
the extrusion process and preventing hereby
further degradation.
The additives help
stabilize the polymer and reduce the creation
of new gels and black spots

Avient Corporation
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses gross margin before special items 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 how it may serve as a basis for future performance.
In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is
a component of Avient annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations.

Also,
the acrylic sheets required an additional process to
cut them to size before thermoforming, which led to
excessive waste and disposal costs.
The OEM was able to purchase
virgin resin and add only the necessary amounts of
color and diffusion additives required to achieve peak
performance.
This saved the customer over $25,000
in annual material costs in addition to resolving its
toughest design challenges.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except for per share data)
Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Avient shareholders
and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to Avient shareholders, excluding special
items, to assess performance and facilitate comparability of results.
In addition, operating
income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient’s annual incentive plans and is used in debt covenant
computations.
A reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the tables below.
