PolyOne Announces Third Quarter 2011 Results
| • | Revenues increase 8% versus third quarter 2010 |
| • | Diluted earnings per share of $0.23 versus $0.04 in the prior-year third quarter |
| • | Adjusted earnings per share expand 10% over third quarter 2010 to $0.26 per share |
| • | Agreements to acquire ColorMatrix and establish joint venture in Middle East to drive specialty growth |
CLEVELAND – October 25, 2011 – PolyOne Corporation (NYSE: POL) today reported revenues of $735.8 million for the third quarter of 2011, an 8% increase compared to revenues of $680.8 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.23 in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $0.04 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2010. Adjusted earnings per share increased 10% to $0.26 for the third quarter of 2011 up from $0.24 recorded in the third quarter last year.
“I am pleased that we expanded year over year earnings per share despite a number of headwinds,” said Stephen D. Newlin, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “During the third quarter, we observed slower global economic growth, a weaker euro, increased competitive pressure in our Performance Products and Solutions segment and higher taxes.”
“We expect these challenges could remain for the near term, but we are very optimistic our performance will continue to improve over the mid to long term, as we continue shifting our mix toward higher margin, more specialized products and services,” added Newlin. “Our announced agreements to acquire ColorMatrix and form a joint venture in Saudi Arabia illustrate perfectly our strategy of adding new technologies and expanding our presence in high-growth markets and geographies.”
“Our strong track record of converting earnings to cash continues as we generated $20 million of free cash flow while also accelerating capital expenditures during the third quarter,” said Robert M. Patterson, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “We are in a strong position to acquire ColorMatrix and still have substantial cash and liquidity to fund organic initiatives, additional bolt-on acquisitions as well as return cash to shareholders. On October 11, 2011, our Board increased our share repurchase authorization to ten million shares after we purchased two million during the third quarter.”

The Company’s third quarter ending cash balance was $410 million and it had $157 million of availability under its accounts receivable sale facility.
To facilitate a comparison of current period results with prior-year amounts, net income and earnings per share have been adjusted to exclude special items, tax adjustments and equity income from the now divested OxyVinyls and SunBelt joint ventures. The chart below identifies the adjustments related to the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Special items for the third quarter of 2011 primarily related to environmental remediation costs, while third quarter 2010 special items of $34.9 million ($21.8 million after tax) include a $29.4 million charge for the early retirement of long-term debt. Tax adjustments in both periods principally relate to deferred tax asset valuation allowance changes.

Attachment 7
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
Senior management uses gross margin before special items and operating income before special items 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. In addition, operating income before the effect of special items is a component of various PolyOne annual and long-term employee incentive plans and is used in debt covenant computations. Senior management uses free cash flow to assess our ability to service our debt. Below is a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. See Attachment 2 for a definition of special items.
