Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | Note 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Form 10-Q instructions and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments, including those that are normal, recurring and necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 of Avient Corporation. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Avient” and the “Company” mean Avient Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be attained in subsequent periods or for the year ending December 31, 2023. Historical information has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the classification of discontinued operations. Discontinued operations are further discussed in Note 3, Discontinued Operations. Accounting Standards Adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50), provides guidance that requires entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose the key terms of the program and information about their obligations that are outstanding at the end of the reporting period. The Company has evaluated the impact of adopting this standard and has concluded that there is not material activity under supplier finance programs that would require disclosure within the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
