HANDLING AND USAGE RATES
Triple A is a dispersion which can be
supplied individually or in combination
with other ColorMatrix colorant and
additive technologies.
ColorMatrix
will recommend the best use rate
depending on the expected level
of AA following processing, storage
conditions and the final desired AA
level in the packaged product.
This
additive technology
can be implemented
during PET processing
without impact on
production efficiency.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2022-04/Avient Q1 2022 Earnings Release.pdf
Although we are being impacted by weaker foreign exchange rates, Covid-related lockdowns in
China, and the war in Ukraine, we are maintaining our full year adjusted EPS guidance of $3.50
on stronger growth projections in the Americas.
Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those implied by these forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to: the ability and time required to consummate the acquisition of Dyneema;
our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the proposed acquisition of
Dyneema; 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; the current and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our
business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows; changes in polymer consumption
growth rates and laws and regulations regarding plastics in jurisdictions where we conduct
business; 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; an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
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.

When showing constant dollar figures on GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, the foreign exchange impact is calculated by using current foreign exchange rates and applying them to the prior period results.
Avient does not provide reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as outlook for Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Tax Rate, to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-
looking basis because Avient is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort.

Total expected cost synergy estimates increased from $60 million to $75
million, and the rate of capture has also accelerated.
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; 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.
