Disclaimers 1 Forward Looking Statements Some of the statements in this presentation contain forward‐looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This presentation includes forward‐looking statements that reflect our plans, beliefs, expectations, and current views with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. Forward‐looking statements are often characterized by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “intends,” “plans”, “on track”, or “anticipates,” or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions, including all matters described on the slide titled “2016 Modeling Assumptions” including, but not limited to, expectations for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, depreciation and amortization, non‐cash compensation expense, interest expense, tax provision, capital expenditures, spread between FIFO and ECRC, net debt, anticipated synergies and cost reset savings. All forward‐looking statements in this presentation are made based on management's current expectations and estimates, which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward‐looking statements. These risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our latest Annual Report on Form 10‐K, including but not limited to “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” therein, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and include, but are not limited to, risks related to: the integration of Arizona Chemical (now, AZ Chem Holdings LP); Kraton's ability to repay its indebtedness; Kraton's reliance on third parties for the provision of significant operating and other services; conditions in the global economy and capital markets; fluctuations in raw material costs; limitations in the availability of raw materials; competition in Kraton's end‐use markets; and other factors of which we are currently unaware or deem immaterial. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward‐looking statements. Forward‐looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we assume no obligation to update such information in light of new information or future events. Pro Forma Financial Information The unaudited pro forma information presented herein is for information purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the Arizona Chemical Acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the period, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results. The unaudited pro forma amounts above have been calculated after applying Kraton's accounting policies and adjusting the Arizona Chemical results to reflect (1) the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets had been applied from January 1, 2015; (2) the elimination of historical interest expense for Arizona Chemical as this debt was paid off by the previous owners; (3) the additional interest expense resulting from the debt issued to fund the Arizona Chemical Acquisition; (4) the elimination of transaction‐related costs; and (5) an adjustment to tax‐effect the aforementioned unaudited pro forma adjustments using an estimated aggregate statutory income tax rate of the jurisdiction to which that above adjustments relate. The unaudited pro forma amounts do not include any potential synergies, cost savings or other expected benefits of the Arizona Chemical Acquisition Kraton First Quarter 2016 Earnings Call

Disclaimers GAAP Disclaimer This presentation includes the use of both GAAP and non‐GAAP financial measures. The non‐GAAP financial measures are EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Net Income attributable to Kraton (or earnings per share). Tables included in this presentation and our earnings release reconcile each of these non‐GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. For additional information on the impact of the spread between the FIFO basis of accounting and estimated current replacement cost (“ECRC”), see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. We consider these non‐GAAP financial measures to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in the evaluation of our performance including period‐to‐period comparisons and/or that of other companies in our industry. Further, management uses these measures to evaluate operating performance, and our incentive compensation plan bases incentive compensation payments on our Adjusted EBITDA performance, along with other factors. These non‐GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and in some cases can vary substantially from other measures of our performance. You should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results under GAAP in the United States. For EBITDA, which represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, these limitations include: EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense on our debt; EBITDA does not reflect the significant depreciation and amortization expense associated with our long‐lived assets; and EBITDA included herein should not be used for purposes of assessing compliance or non‐compliance with financial covenants under our debt agreements. The calculation of EBITDA in our debt agreements includes adjustments, such as extraordinary, non‐recurring or one‐time charges, pro forma cost savings, certain non‐cash items, turnaround costs, and other items included in the definition of EBITDA in our debt agreements. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. As an analytical tool, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to all the limitations applicable to EBITDA. We prepare Adjusted EBITDA by eliminating from EBITDA the impact of a number of items we do not consider indicative of our on‐going performance, including the spread between FIFO and ECRC, but you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non‐recurring items. In addition, due to volatility in raw material prices, Adjusted EBITDA may, and often does, vary substantially from EBITDA and other performance measures, including net income calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP; and Adjusted EBITDA may, and often will, vary significantly from EBITDA calculations under the terms of our debt agreements and should not be used for assessing compliance or non‐compliance with financial covenants under our debt agreements. Because of these and other limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. As a measure of our performance, Adjusted Gross Profit is limited because it often will vary substantially from gross profit calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP due to volatility in raw material prices. Finally, we prepare Adjusted Net Income attributable to Kraton by eliminating from net income the impact of a number of items we do not consider indicative of our on‐going performance, including the spread between FIFO and ECRC. Our presentation of non‐GAAP financial measures and the adjustments made therein should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non‐recurring items, and in the future we may incur expenses or charges similar to the adjustments made in the presentation of our non‐GAAP financial measures. 2Kraton First Quarter 2016 Earnings Call

These estimates are forward‐looking statements and speak only as of April 28, 2016. Management assumes no obligation to update these estimates in light of new information or future events. (2) We have not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income (loss) because we do not provide guidance for net income (loss) or for items that we do not consider indicative of our on‐going performance, including the gain on sale of assets and the spread between FIFO and ECRC, as certain of these items are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the non‐GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort. Note: Non‐cash compensation expense is excluded in determining Adjusted EBITDA and included in determining Adjusted EPS. 12Kraton First Quarter 2016 Earnings Call
