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.
Adjusted EPS attributable to PolyOne common shareholders is calculated as follows:
2009* 2010* 2011* 2012* 2013* 2014* 2015* 2016 2017
Net income from continuing operations attributable

TOUGH ENOUGH TO PROTECT
THE POWER GRID
MODULAR BALLISTIC PROTECTION MADE POSSIBLE
WITH COMPOSITES
THE CHALLENGE
Recent attacks on U.S. electrical substations across the
country provide stark reminders that our nation’s power
supply remains a primary target for criminals focused
on harming our country and security.1
The call to action is evident: we must continually
improve the physical and technological infrastructure
protection of our nation’s energy supply.
Using GlasArmor panels, Ballisti-Wall® and Ballisti-
Cover® solutions enable utility companies to add a
superior level of protection to critical components and
meet FERC security requirements within a modular,
adaptable construction.
