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 include 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 by the Company, including verbal statements, 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, debt and cash levels, 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 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 the Company acquires.  There may be risks and uncertainties not currently known to us.  The occurrence of risks and uncertainties and the impact of
such occurrences is often not predictable or within the Company’s control.  Such impacts could adversely effect the Company’s business, operations or assets as well as the
Company’s results and, in some cases, such effect could be material.
All written and verbal descriptions of our business, operations and assets and all 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. 
All such descriptions and forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such description or 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 such descriptions or forward-looking statements whether as a result
of additional 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 –
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.
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).
