PolyOne’s chief operating decision maker uses these financial measures to
monitor and evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company and each
business segment and to allocate resources.
In addition, operating income
before special items and adjusted EPS are components of various PolyOne
annual and long-term employee incentive plans
Senior management
believes these measures are useful to investors because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature,
tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.

Forward-Looking Statements
In this presentation, statements that are not reported financial results or other historical information are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
In addition, operating income before special items and
adjusted EPS are components of various PolyOne annual and long-term employee
incentive plans
Senior management believes these measures are useful to investors
because they allow for comparison to PolyOne's performance in prior periods without the effect of items that, by their nature, tend to obscure PolyOne's operating results due
to the potential variability across periods based on timing, frequency and magnitude.
