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.

Devices that rely on 5G are sparking innovation in industries ranging from telecommunications and consumer electronics to automotive and healthcare.
The devices, in turn, rely on materials that limit signal loss at high-band 5G frequencies (mmWave).
With a dielectric constant (Dk) range spanning 2.55 to 23, the materials are optimized to boost antenna efficiency and deliver lightweight solutions for 5G devices.
