Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(Dollars in 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.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-11/excelite-im-auto-case-study.pdf
This meant the molder was running longer cycle times
to manage shot-to-shot irregularities and control
dimensional stability.
By using proprietary stabilizing
agents, greater control of the dispersion of the active
particles was achieved.
This offered
significant improvement in dispersion and dimensional
stability, and an additional 2% density reduction,
lowering final part weight.
