Further, as a result of Avient's strategic shift to an
innovator of materials solutions, it has completed
several acquisitions and divestitures which have
resulted in a significant amount of intangible asset
amortization.
Management excludes intangible
asset amortization from adjusted EPS as it believes
excluding acquired intangible asset amortization is
a useful measure of current period earnings per
share.
