(1)The Company’s measure of segment operating performance is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as income from continuing operations before interest expense, net; provision for income taxes; depreciation and amortization expense; loss on extinguishment of long-term debt and certain debt issuance costs; asset impairment charges; gains or losses on the dispositions of businesses and assets; restructuring charges; acquisition related costs and benefits, and other items. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is the key metric that is used by the chief operating decision maker to evaluate business performance in comparison to budgets, forecasts, and prior year financial results, providing a measure that the chief operating decision maker believes reflects core operating performance by removing the impact of transactions and events that would not be considered a part of core operations.
(2)On November 13, 2024, the Company announced it entered into agreements to supply a polycarbonate technology license and proprietary polycarbonate production equipment in Stade, Germany to a wholly owned subsidiary of Deepak for use in India. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed its performance obligations on the delivery of the technology license and recognized $26.0 million in “Other Expense (Income), Net” within the Polymer Solutions segment.
(3)Other segment items contain activity primarily defined as addbacks to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA included from the loss on extinguishment of long-term debt and certain debt issuance costs; asset impairment charges; gains or losses on the dispositions of businesses and assets; restructuring charges; acquisition related costs and benefits, and other items.
(4)Segment depreciation and amortization expense is included as a component of cost of goods sold; and selling, general, and administrative expense in the amounts regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and are therefore added back to arrive at Segment Adjusted EBITDA.
