Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes information that does not conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are considered non-GAAP measures, including the presentation of Organic Sales, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Pro Forma Gross Profit, Adjusted Operating EBITDA, Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA, Adjusted Operating EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Pro Forma EPS, Base Tax Rate, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Pro Forma Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Pro Forma Base Tax Rate. The non-GAAP measures presented are not necessarily indicative of the future possible key performance indicators or non-GAAP measures of Qnity.

Qnity believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide additional information related to the performance of Qnity on an as-managed basis by DuPont and a stand-alone basis. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement disclosures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reflect results in a manner that enables, in some instances, more meaningful analysis of trends and facilitates comparison of results across periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, such non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with similar measures provided or used by other companies. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures are provided below. Non-GAAP measures included in this press release are defined below.

Adjusted Earnings is defined as net income available for Qnity common stockholders excluding the impacts of significant items, amortization expense of intangibles, non-operating pension / other post-employment benefits (“OPEB”) credits / costs, and indirect legacy costs / benefits and adjusted for the income tax effect of these excluded items. Adjusted Earnings is the numerator used in the calculation of Adjusted EPS.

Adjusted EPS is defined as Adjusted Earnings per common share - diluted.

Base Tax Rate is a non-GAAP measure defined as the GAAP Effective Tax Rate excluding the tax rate impacts of adjustments to net income available for Qnity common stockholders in determining Adjusted Earnings.

Adjusted Operating EBITDA is defined as Pre-tax Earnings (i.e., “Income before income taxes") before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension / OPEB benefits credits / costs, foreign exchange gains / losses, indirect legacy costs / benefits, and adjusted for significant items.

Adjusted Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted Operating EBITDA divided by Net Sales.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by/used for operating activities less capital expenditures and excluding the impact of indirect legacy costs / benefits related to cost sharing arrangements executed between DuPont and Qnity at the time of spin-off, IT independence costs, and transformation, integration, and other charges, as well as cash inflows/outflows that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company's underlying business liquidity.

Significant items are items that impact Qnity and arise outside the ordinary course of business that management believes may cause misinterpretation of underlying business performance, both historical and future, based on a combination of some or all of the item’s size, unusual nature and infrequent occurrence. Within this definition, Management classifies as significant items certain costs and expenses associated with transformation, integration, and other charges related to transformational activities, including acquisitions and divestitures, as they are considered unrelated to ongoing business performance.

Indirect legacy costs/benefits relate to cost sharing arrangements executed between DuPont and Qnity at the time of the spin-off. Such costs include certain litigation and environmental-related shared costs, taxes, and indirect cost sharing arrangements, and are excluded from Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted Operating EBITDA, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, as defined above, as they are considered unrelated to ongoing Qnity business performance.

Organic Sales is defined as net sales excluding the impacts of currency and portfolio actions.

Adjusted gross profit is calculated as Gross Profit (net sales less cost of sales), excluding the impact of Significant items on Net Sales and Cost of Sales and the impact on Cost of Sales from certain services associated with transaction agreements entered with DuPont, including the Transition Services Agreement, certain product service agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, raw materials supply agreements, and site services agreements.

Qnity has also presented measures on a pro forma basis which were prepared in a manner consistent with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Our pro forma results give effect to the spin-off and related transactions as if the Spin Off occurred on January 1, 2025. Our Pro Forma adjustments reflect:

• Interest expense associated with our current debt structure;
• Income tax effect of incremental interest expense;
• The impact of the Transition Services Agreements and other commercial agreements entered into with DuPont in connection with the spin-off; and
• Transaction and other incremental costs required to operate as a stand-alone entity.

We believe pro forma measures are helpful to supplement our financial results as they allow a comparison of results as a stand-alone company as if the agreements were in place for the periods presented.

Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings is defined as net income available for Qnity common stockholders excluding the impacts of significant items, amortization expense of intangibles, non-operating pension / other post-employment benefits credits / costs, and indirect legacy costs / benefits, less the after-tax impacts of the pro forma adjustments described above and adjusted for the income tax effect of these excluded items. Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings is the numerator used in the calculation of Adjusted Pro Forma EPS.

Adjusted Pro Forma EPS is defined as Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings per common share - diluted.

Adjusted Pro Forma Base Tax Rate is a non‑GAAP measure defined as the Base Tax Rate adjusted to reflect the estimated income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments described above.

Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA is defined as Adjusted Operating EBITDA less certain pro forma adjustments described above.

Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted Pro Forma Operating EBITDA divided by Net Sales.

Adjusted Pro Forma Free Cash Flow is defined as pro forma cash provided by/used for operating activities less capital expenditures and excluding the impact of indirect legacy costs / benefits related to cost sharing arrangements executed between DuPont and Qnity at the time of spin-off, IT independence costs, transformation, integration, and other charges, and transaction and other incremental costs required to operate as a stand-alone entity, as well as cash inflows/outflows that are unusual in nature and/or infrequent in occurrence that neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company's underlying business liquidity.

Adjusted Pro Forma Gross Profit is calculated as Gross Profit (net sales less cost of sales), excluding the impact on Cost of Sales from certain services associated with transaction agreements entered with DuPont, including the Transition Services Agreement, certain product service agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, raw materials supply agreements, and site services agreements.
