Conference call participants in the question and answer session should pre-register using the
link at avient.com/investors, or here, to receive the dial-in number and personal PIN.
In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient's annual
incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations.
Senior management believes this measure is useful to investors
because it allows 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.
