millions, except per share data) Senior management uses comparisons of adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders and diluted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations attributable to PolyOne shareholders, excluding special items, to assess performance and facilitate comparability of results. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, or solely as alternatives to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

MINIMIZING RISK OF CHANGES Incoming batch-to-batch control of ingredients versus a fingerprint to monitor changes, and documented change control beyond CAS number reduce the risk of changes. Mevopur color and performance concentrates as well as ready-to-use formulations add value to a wide range of applications: MEDICAL DEVICES • Drug delivery • Catheters • Renal care/dialysis • Surgical instruments • Dental instruments • Medical device packaging • Electronic instruments and accessories for monitoring PHARMACEUTICAL PACKAGING • Vials, ampoules • Bottles for pills, liquid medicines • Blister packaging IN VITRO DIAGNOSTICS (IVD) • Blood analysis • IVD devices • IVD disposables (e.g., pipette tips) • Point-of-Care To meet various manufacturing processes, colorants and functional additives are provided as concentrates for dilution into the polymer or as ready-to-use formulations.
