THE IMPACT
The MPS incorporates Avient’s custom-formulated
GlasArmor ballistic panels that meet Level 3 protection
under Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 752 standards for
ballistic resistance.
Avient collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic-
resistant panels that were not only compatible with the
required hardware but also met color requirements for
better visual cover once deployed.
With our hardware fabrication capabilities and
Avient’s knowledge of composite ballistic protection
technology, we were able to create modular systems
that reduce time and logistic requirements for our brave
soldiers.”

HOW PHASE BARRIERS MADE OF AVIENT TPES MAKE THE DIFFERENCE FOR MOLDED
CASE CIRCUIT BREAKERS
Will not fail over the MCCB’s expected
service life – Avient materials are flexible, have
low moisture absorption, and have the needed
dielectric integrity, leading to a more reliable phase
barrier.

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.

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.
