Forward-Looking Statements
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, refer to the presentation Appendix.
This presentation and the accompanying oral remarks includes descriptions of our current business, operations, assets and other matters affecting the Company as
well as “forward-looking statements,” as defined by federal securities laws.  All forward-looking statements, as well as any verbal statements by the Company in
connection with this presentation, are intended to qualify for the protections afforded forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995.  Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectation, judgment, belief, assumption, estimate or forecast about future events, circumstances
or results and may address business conditions and prospects, strategy, capital structure, sales, profits, earnings, markets, products, technology, operations,
customers, raw materials, claims and litigation, financial condition, and accounting policies among other matters.  Words such as, but not limited to, “will,” “may,”
“should,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “seeks,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “optimistic,” “likely,” “would,” “could” and similar
expressions or phrases identify forward-looking statements. 
All descriptions of our current business, operations and assets, as well as all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  Many risks and
uncertainties are inherent in business generally and the markets in which the Company operates or proposes to operate.  Other risks and uncertainties are more
specific to the Company’s businesses, including businesses that the Company acquires.  There may be risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company.
The occurrence of such risks and uncertainties and the impact of such occurrence is often not predictable or within the Company’s control.  Such impacts could
adversely effect the Company’s results and, in some cases, such effect could be material.
All written and verbal descriptions of our current business, operations and assets and forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or any person acting
on the Company’s behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the risks, uncertainties and cautionary statements contained herein. 
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation, and specifically declines
any obligation, other than that imposed by law, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
Risks and uncertainties that may adversely impact our current business, operations, assets, or other matters affecting the Company, and which may cause actual
results to differ materially from expected results include, among others:  economic trends and conditions affecting the economy in general and/or the Company’s
end-use markets; prices and availability of raw materials including styrene, butadiene, vinyl acetate monomer, polyvinyl chloride, acrylonitrile, acrylics and textiles;
ability to increase pricing to offset raw material cost increases; product substitution and/or demand destruction due to product technology, performance or cost
disadvantages; high degree of customer concentration and potential loss of a significant customer; supplier, customer and/or competitor consolidation; customer
credit and bankruptcy risk; failure to successfully develop and commercialize new products; a decrease in regional customer demand due to reduced in-region
production or increased import competition; risks associated with international operations including political unrest, fluctuations in exchange rates, and regulatory
uncertainty; failure to successfully implement productivity enhancement and cost reduction initiatives; risks associated with chemical handling and manufacturing
and with acts of war, terrorism, natural disasters or accidents, including fires, floods, explosions and releases of hazardous substances; unplanned full or partial
suspension of plant operations; ability to comply, and cost of compliance with legislative and regulatory changes, including changes impacting environmental, health
and safety compliance and changes which may restrict or prohibit the Company from using or selling certain products and raw materials; losses from the Company’s
strategic alliance, joint venture, acquisition, integration and operational activities; rapid inflation in health care costs; loss of key employees and inability to attract and
retain new key employees; prolonged work stoppage resulting from labor disputes with unionized workforce; changes in, and significant contributions required to
meet pension plan funding obligations; attacks on and/or failure of the Company’s information systems; infringement or loss of the Company’s intellectual property;
litigation and claims against the Company related to products, services, contracts, employment, environmental, safety, intellectual property and other matters;
adverse litigation judgments or settlements; absence of or inadequacy of insurance coverage for litigation judgments, settlements or other losses; higher than
expected capital expenditures; availability of financing at anticipated rates and terms; and loan covenant default arising from substantial debt and leverage and the
inability to service that debt, including increases in applicable short-term or long-term borrowing rates.
For further information on risks and uncertainties, see the Company’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Appendix

This presentation includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt which are Non-GAAP financial measures as
defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
OMNOVA’s EBITDA is calculated as income (loss) from continuing operations less interest expense, amortization of
deferred financing costs, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense.  OMNOVA’s Adjusted EBITDA is
calculated as OMNOVA’s EBITDA less restructuring and severance expenses, asset impairments, non-cash stock
compensation and other items.  Segment EBITDA is calculated as segment operating income (loss) less interest
expense, amortization of deferred financing costs, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. 
Segment Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Segment EBITDA less restructuring and severance expenses, asset
impairments, non-cash stock compensation and other items.  For purposes of this presentation, Net Debt is
calculated as total debt less cash.
ELIOKEM’s  EBITDA is calculated as net income less interest expense, amortization of deferred financing costs,
income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense.  ELIOKEM’s Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as ELIOKEM’s
EBITDA less restructuring and severance expenses, asset impairments and other items. 
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt are not measures of financial performance under GAAP.  EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA
and
Net
Debt
are
not
calculated
in
the
same
manner
by
all
companies
and,
accordingly,
are
not
necessarily
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for comparing
performance relative to other companies.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt should not be construed as
indicators of the Company’s operating performance or liquidity and should not be considered in isolation from or as
a substitute for net income (loss), cash flows from operations or cash flow data, which are all prepared in
accordance with GAAP.  EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt are not intended to represent, and should not be
considered more meaningful than or as an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in
accordance with GAAP.  Management believes that presenting this information is useful to investors because these
measures are commonly used as analytical indicators to evaluate performance and by management to allocate
resources.  Set forth below are the reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable
GAAP financial measure.
All appendix results are pro forma reflecting continuing business (including the acquisition of ELIOKEM and
excluding the sale of global wallcovering businesses).
