Impact
Important information about the health, safety and environmental impacts of Avient products.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-11/AVNT Q3 2023 Earnings Press Release.pdf
Versus our projections, lower depreciation expense, related to prior restructuring actions, and
reduced interest expense more than offset the impact of lower sales.”

The company noted that during the third quarter certain end markets continued to perform
relatively well, such as energy, transportation and defense, whereas demand in most other
markets remained weak versus the prior year.
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; changes in laws and
regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; fluctuations in raw
material prices, quality and supply, and in energy prices and supply; 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; our ability to achieve strategic objectives and successfully
integrate acquisitions, including Avient Protective Materials; an inability to raise or sustain
prices for products or services; our ability to pay regular quarterly cash dividends, including at
the increased rate, 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; 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 and any recessionary conditions.
