Photovoltaic cables are low-voltage, high-weather-resistant cables that connect solar panels to an inverter. Polymers must be cross-linked to withstand the high temperatures generated by the metal wires they protect.

Some supply issues, such as the ones caused by the scarcity of substances and raw material shortages, are complex and difficult to overcome on short notice, especially in the healthcare area, due to high safety standards. Having multiple sites also means there is always a backup site producing to the same high-quality standards.

Enhancing polymer materials with colorants can: • Differentiate products • Reinforce branding • Evoke emotions • Add value to a commodity item • Promote safety Creative and effective use of polymer colorants, which come in liquid and solid forms, can have an impact all along the value chain. COMPLEMENTARY SOLUTIONS SMART COLORANTS: MAKING THE MOST OF COLOR SOLID COLORANTS LIQUID COLORANTS Available based on many different carrier resins Clean, easy handling + feeding Designed + engineered for compatible polymer matrix More effective for low letdown ratios Highly accurate dispensing Can be processed at lower temperatures COLOR STRATEGY BEST PRACTICES EXPANDING COLORANT OPTIONS Avoid limiting yourself to either solid or liquid forms, and focus on the requirements of the end application instead • Widen your materials and applications possibilities • Achieve the desired effect for each part • Optimize productivity and system costs by matching the right colorant type to the project ADDING SPECIAL EFFECTS Further differentiate and add value to your products • Examples include: metallic, pearlescent, chrome look, edge glow, sparkle/glitter, neon/fluorescent look, woodgrain/stone/camouflage SELECTING + SIZING COLORANT EQUIPMENT Both liquid and solid colorants can be used in the same production facility • Use the right colorant to significantly impact production and offer improvements in terms of efficiency and quality

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: • Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets that could adversely impact the availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future; • The effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs and other political, economic and regulatory risks; • Disruptions or inefficiencies in our supply chain, logistics, or operations; • Changes in laws and regulations in jurisdictions where we conduct business, including with respect to plastics and climate change; • Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; • Demand for our products and services; • Production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs; • Unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters; • Our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends and the amounts and timing of any future dividends; • Information systems failures and cyberattacks; • Amounts for cash and non-cash charges related to restructuring plans that may differ from original estimates, including because of timing changes associated with the underlying actions; • Our ability to achieve strategic objectives and successfully integrate acquisitions, including the implementation of a cloud-based enterprise resource planning system, S/4HANA;and • Other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates, changes in the rate of inflation, geopolitical conflicts and any recessionary conditions Use of Non-GAAP Measures This presentation includes the use of both GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) and non-GAAP financial measures. When showing constant dollar figures on GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, the foreign exchange impact is calculated by using current foreign exchange rates and applying them to the prior period results. We also monitor earnings (defined as net income from continuing operations) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA before the impact of special items) as a supplement to our GAAP measures.
