When showing constant dollar figures on GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, the foreign exchange impact is calculated by using current foreign exchange rates and applying them to the prior period results.
Avient reflects 2023 adjusted EBITDA guidance of $530M and estimated run-rate CAPEX of $110M.
We also monitor earnings (defined as net income from continuing operations) before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA) and adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA before the impact of special items) as a supplement to our GAAP
measures.
