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.
Further, as a result of Avient's strategic shift to an innovator
of materials solutions, it has completed several acquisitions and divestitures which have resulted in a significant amount of
intangible asset amortization.

In fact, the supplier specializes in automotive interiors
and was encountering production issues with certain
vinyl materials.
Finally, the material was formulated
to mimic the plush look and dry feel of leather.
Additionally, it was projected that scrap rates were
reduced by at least 10% over competitive materials.

Demand (34) • Demand was down, but less than in previous
quarters, due to slowing pace of destocking
• Positive net price benefit:
o CAI – Pricing flat with favorable mix from
uptick in packaging and consumer end
markets and raw material deflation
o SEM - Pricing flat with favorable mix from
Composites and raw material deflation
• Cost reductions primarily driven by reduced
administrative costs and cost synergies

MEETING FR GOALS IN DATA CABLES WITH AN
ALTERNATIVE TO FEP
Maxxam FR materials can provide cost savings and improved
processing capabilities when used in category 5e cables
and above.
Not only is the material costly,
it can also be challenging to process and use in thin wall
cable applications.
After Avient delivered test data for pair combinations and
the manufacturer’s team completed material trials, they
were able to replace FEP with Maxxam FR material in four
out of four insulation pairs.

the Versaflex XP 2850 material demonstrated
exceptional wet kinetic COF performance—
showing more than a 100% improvement over the
competition—and better dry COF performance as
well.
In addition to enhanced tackiness, this specialty
material offers excellent abrasion and UV resistance,
plus a skin-safe, non-abrasive finish.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
