Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors
because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend
to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.
In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is
a component of Avient annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations.

Main advantages of liquid color systems include:
• Excellent statistical distribution for consistently high quality products
• Shot-to-shot and batch-to-batch consistency
• Single heat history
• Minimal wastage due to high level dosing accuracy and product recovery rates
• Highly concentrated formulations with capability of very low addition rates
• Reduced inventory and storage requirements
CHARACTERISTICS OF
HIGH PERFORMANCE
STABLE LIQUID FORMULATIONS
Under storage
• Remains stable
• Solid-like at low shear
• No sedimentation
During dosing
• Exceeds yield stress
• Liquid-like behavior
• Flows easily
After dispensing
• Self-levelling
• Rebuilds its structure
INSPIRATION AND INSIGHT
When developing a brand new color, consulting with
your color provider early in the decision process
can prove invaluable in gaining insight into which
formulation will be most effective and can open up
new ideas and opportunities for new colors, color
effects, polymer options or finishes that you may not
be familiar with.
When it comes to the creative application of color
and special effects in product design and branding,
Avient’s ColorWorks™ centers are a source of ideas,
inspiration and technical guidance.
Streamlining this process and being able to react
quickly and cost-effectively to market dynamics can
give that all-important competitive edge.
