Computation of Ratios of Earnings to Fixed Charges


The following table sets forth our ratios of earnings to fixed charges for the periods presented ($ in millions). All Successor periods have been revised to reflect adjustments for discontinued operations related to the sale of the North American composites business on July 1, 2014. All Predecessor financial data represents a carve-out financial statement presentation of the Distribution Business, which was an unincorporated commercial unit of Ashland. This predecessor financial data does not reflect adjustments for discontinued operations related to the sale of the North American composites business due to unavailability of certain data and insufficient detail for other data which would be required to complete the necessary adjustments.
