COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL This presentation includes Adjusted Segment Operating Profit, Adjusted Segment EBITDA, Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA and other financial measures which are Non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. OMNOVA’s Adjusted Segment Operating Profit is calculated as Segment Operating Profit (Loss) less restructuring and severance expenses, asset impairments and other items. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is calculated as Adjusted Segment Operating Profit less depreciation and amortization expense less accelerated depreciation. OMNOVA’s Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes is calculated as Adjusted Segment Operating Profit less corporate expenses, interest, restructuring and severance, asset impairments and other items. OMNOVA’s Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes less interest expense less debt premium and depreciation and amortization expense less accelerated depreciation. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit and Adjusted Segment and/or Consolidated EBITDA and the other financial measures (collectively, the “Non-GAAP financial measures”) 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. The Non-GAAP financial measures 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. The Non-GAAP financial measures 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 in the appendices are the reconciliations of these Non- GAAP financial 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 the global wallcovering business).
