The Company 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 the Company is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable
effort.

Our transformation and business model are still being
understood, and as a result, we are currently trading at a
discount to peer companies
Our financial metrics are consistent with specialty
formulator peers, yet our EBITDA multiple is at a 4.1x
discount to peer companies
Ongoing synergy capture is another value creation lever
that is unique to Avient
This creates a compelling investment opportunity
Total Enterprise Value / 2021E EBITDA (1)
Our current valuation implies an
EBITDA multiple that is significantly
below specialty formulator peers and
our historic valuations, when the
company had considerable exposure
to more cyclical and challenging end
markets.
