Factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to: disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit
markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the
availability and cost of credit in the future; the effect on foreign operations of currency
fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; changes in laws and
regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw
material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; production outages or
material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; unanticipated
developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and
environmental matters; our ability to achieve strategic objectives and successfully integrate
acquisitions, including Avient Protective Materials; an inability to raise or sustain prices for
products or services; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and
timing of any future dividends; information systems failures and cyberattacks; amounts for cash
and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates,
including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions; and other factors
affecting our business beyond our control, including without limitation, changes in the general
economy, changes in interest rates, changes in the rate of inflation and any recessionary
conditions.
