Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On March 25, 2013, PolyOne Corporation, a premier global provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions, with operations in specialty polymer formulations, color additive systems, liquid colorants, fluoropolymer and silicone colorants, plastic sheet and packaging solutions and polymer distribution announced an agreement to sell its resins business. As a result of this agreement, the resins business will be reported as a discontinued operation. Further, in conjunction with the announced sale, PolyOne’s Specialty Coatings business, which was historically reported within its Performance Products and Solutions segment will be reported within its Global Color, Additives and Inks segment to align with PolyOne’s new reporting structure. These changes are required to be applied retrospectively to conform to current period presentation.

For informational purposes, included in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K are historical unaudited consolidated statements of income, business segment information, and adjusted earnings per share information, adjusted to reflect the aforementioned changes.
