Bonding of TPE
with a particular polyamide chemistry is also affected by the additives packages, such as heat
stabilizers, glass fibers, flow modifiers, impact modifiers and pigments.
There has been a technical and a market need for a TPE which can bond to different types of
polyamide chemistries from various sources which includes variables such as polyamide
chemistries, additive packages, moisture content, post molding aging history and processing
conditions.

In addition to packaging, we also work closely
with customers to provide solutions for transportation, building and construction, healthcare and consumer markets.
The remaining decline is a result of lower demand within the oil and gas and packaging end
markets.

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.
