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 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 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, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be attained in subsequent periods or for the year ending December 31, 2025.
Accounting Standards Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires additional segment disclosures on an annual and interim basis, including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Company adopted this standard for the year ended December 31, 2024, and interim periods thereafter, and applied retrospective changes to all periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 impacted segment disclosures within Note 9, Segment Information.

ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes, provides guidance requiring disaggregated income tax disclosures on an annual basis, including information on the Company's effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of adopting this standard to its income taxes disclosures.
