KEY CUSTOMER CHALLENGES:
• Meet Aggressive Sustainability Goals - While brand owners have made
strong, public sustainability commitments – many are currently trailing far
behind goals
• Develop Strategies to Minimize Plastic Waste - Plastic waste remains
a global priority with consumers and legislatures – forcing brand owners to
implement tangible mitigation strategies
• Increase Post Consumer Recycle (PCR) Utilization & Post
Consumer Recycle Availability - Increasing the use of PCR is far more
challenging than many companies had anticipated
• Meet Legislation Requirements - Legislatures are drafting financial
penalties for companies unable or unwilling to meet post-consumer recycled
content targets

recycled content and
minimize plastic waste

We are also benefitting from the recent acquisition of Clariant Masterbatch and early synergy capture.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on our business, results from operations, financial condition and liquidity; our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the acquisition of Clariant's Masterbatch business, including any expected synergies; our ability to successfully integrate Clariant's Masterbatch business and achieve the expected results of the acquisition of Clariant's Masterbatch business, including, without limitation, the acquisition being accretive; 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 polymer consumption growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct business; changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online; 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 continue to pay cash dividends including at the increased rate; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services; an ability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to acquisitions and integration, working capital reductions, costs reductions and employee productivity goals; information systems failures and cyberattacks; and other factors affecting our business beyond our control, including, without limitation, changes in the general economy, changes in interest rates and changes in the rate of inflation.
