Compared to our prior adjusted EPS expectations, raw material deflation as
well as improving mix from composites and sustainable solutions positively impacted the quarter
and more than offset weaker demand conditions.”

“Sequentially, we’ve seen modest improvement in Asia, but demand across other regions remains
sluggish, particularly in Europe, as consumers remain cautious with continued inflation and rising
interest rates,” Mr.
We have remained consistent in our view all year that to the
extent demand conditions weakened further, we would be able to offset that with strength in
composites, improving margins and cost reductions.”

For the full year, adjusted EPS
increased 58% to $3.05 driven by demand for sustainable solutions, healthcare applications and
composites technologies.”
In December, we completed our annual employee
engagement survey and received our 3rd consecutive Great Place to Work® certification from the
Great Place to Work Institute.”

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-08/carbonerro-paddle-case-study.pdf
Recognized for putting
the user experience first, Carbonerro first approached
Avient with the need for a paddle shaft that would
float, rather than sink, and use composites rather
than aluminum to provide an improved experience for
intermediate riders.
Using this process together with an advanced composite
polymer formulation from Avient would offer a better
stiffness-to-weight ratio than that of aluminum and
mandrel-made fiberglass.
Avient was able to help this company evaluate its
manufacturing processes and recommend a superior
composite material solution.

Demand (34) • Demand was down, but less than in previous
quarters, due to slowing pace of destocking
• Positive net price benefit:
o CAI – Pricing flat with favorable mix from
uptick in packaging and consumer end
markets and raw material deflation
o SEM - Pricing flat with favorable mix from
Composites and raw material deflation
• Cost reductions primarily driven by reduced
administrative costs and cost synergies
