In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient’s annual incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes the measures described above are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

Hydrocerol™ Chemical Foaming Agents FOR USE IN INJECTION MOLDING TECHNICAL GUIDE CHEMICAL FOAMING AGENTS • Reduced part weights, saving material and costs • Reduced cycle times • Smoother surface • Fine cell structure • No discoloration or odor • Suitable for standard machinery • Flexibility in production • Smaller machines, due to lower clamping forces • Higher stiffness-to-weight ratio • Elimination of warpage • Elimination of sink marks • Improved dimensional accuracy • Improved flowability • Improved thermal insulation • Decreased sound transfer • Creation of new effects Chemical foaming agents are substances, which get activated at typical thermoplastic polymer processing temperatures, liberating gases such as CO2 and/or N2. Our experience has shown that the following adjustments are effective: • The gates and runners should be designed to achieve a quick and uniform filling of the mold • The melt flow should be directed from thin- walled to thick-walled sections • It is important for the mold to have good venting at the end of the flow path, in “dead-end” recesses and at the ejection pins The tooling strength for foam injection molds need not be as high as for solid injection molds as the internal pressure is now lower, due to the reduced viscosity of the base polymer, when the dissolved gases plasticize it.

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; • An inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; • 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. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of Avient’s annual incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management believes the measures described above are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to Avient's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure Avient's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

The ultimate goal is to achieve the results you want in the most cost-effective manner by using the material that is best suited to your application. Like LSR, TPEs offer you the chance to achieve a wide variety of colors and special effects with relative ease. In the beverage industry, TPE liners in metal bottle caps effectively protect the taste and freshness of beer, a product that is particularly sensitive to oxygen.
