Avient acquired the Clariant Color business on July 1, 2020 (the “Acquisition Date”).
To provide comparable financial results, the Company references “pro forma” financial metrics, which include the business results of Clariant Color
for periods prior to the Acquisition Date.
We will deliver for our stakeholders through multiple value creation levers—many of
which are unique to Avient:
o Demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare, and composites, together with Clariant Color
revenue synergies, that will drive long-term revenue growth in excess of GDP
o Clariant color cost synergy capture will result in significant near-term benefit
In addition, we remain committed to increasing annual dividends in line with earnings growth and
opportunistically buying back shares, all while remaining modestly levered.

PRODUCT BULLETIN
OnColor™ Recovered Black
OnColor™ Recovered Black is a black color
concentrate that utilizes polymer material recyclate
including pigments recovered from separate
manufacturing processes.
Used as a general
purpose black, it is a versatile and cost-effective
solution suitable for applications where a basic
black colorant is required.
An effective means of repurposing recyclate,
OnColor R3 Recovered Black keeps waste from
being sent to a landfill by reprocessing it into
usable colorant.

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 common shareholders, adjusted earnings per share (EPS)
attributable to PolyOne common shareholders and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to assess performance and allocate resources
because senior management believes that these measures are useful in understanding current profitability levels and that current levels may serve as a base for future performance.
