Why Invest In PolyOne?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-06/AVIENT_TPEs and LSR eBook.pdf
LSR flows easily into molds with varied wall thicknesses and can fill very
long, thin sections of a mold.
A 2012 article in Plastics Technology1 notes silicone rubber molds need tighter
tolerances to prevent flash.
On the other hand, TPEs are most commonly processed using in-line, single-
screw injection equipment that has been routinely used in the plastics industry
for decades.

The non-GAAP financial measures include: Adjusted Earnings Per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margins and
Adjusted free cash flow.
Avient does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as outlook for Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-
looking basis because Avient is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items, and the information is not available without unreasonable effort.
