This financial information includes the use of non-GAAP financial
measures, including adjusted gross profit, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EPS.
Slide 6 - Non-GAAP Reconciliations
Reflects a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for these recast historical financial results.
Slide 7 - Summary of Special Items Recast for DSS Divestiture
Reflects special items from continuing operations which include charges related to specific strategic initiatives or financial restructuring such as: consolidation of
operations; debt extinguishment costs; costs incurred directly in relation to acquisitions or divestitures; employee separation costs resulting from personnel reduction
programs, plant realignment costs, executive separation agreements; asset impairments; mark-to-market adjustments associated with actuarial gains and losses on
pension and other post-retirement benefit plans; environmental remediation costs, fines, penalties and related insurance recoveries related to facilities no longer owned
or closed in prior years; gains and losses on the divestiture of operating businesses, joint ventures and equity investments; gains and losses on facility or property sales
or disposals; results of litigation, fines or penalties, where such litigation (or action relating to the fines or penalties) arose prior to the commencement of the performance
period; one-time, non-recurring items; and the effect of changes in accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results.

POLYONE CORPORATION 3
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
This presentation includes the use of both GAAP (generally accepted accounting
principles) and non-GAAP financial measures.
The non-GAAP financial measures
include: adjusted EPS, Specialty platform operating income percentage, adjusted
operating income, and return on invested capital
1) Special items are a non-GAAP financial measure and are used to determine adjusted earnings.

Non-uniform walls
will contribute to warp, stress, and cracking by
creating areas of the part that cool faster.
However, non-parallel walls
should be ½°.
