Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
PolyOne Corporation
The Retirement Plan Committee
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the PolyOne
Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statement of changes in
net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We
were not engaged to perform an audit of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Our
audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the
changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2007, in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken
as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December
31, 2007, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules
and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental
schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

PolyOne Retirement Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006 and
Year Ended December 31, 2007
1. Summary Description of the Plan
General
The PolyOne Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) is a defined contribution plan that covers all
employees of the Company, other than leased employees, nonresident aliens, other employees
regularly employed outside of the United States, and persons classified by the Company as anything
other than employees (even if that classification is later changed). The Plan is subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
The following summary description of the Plan is provided for general information purposes only.
Participants should refer to the plan document for a more complete description of the Plans
provisions.
The Plan is sponsored by PolyOne Corporation (the Company and Plan Sponsor) and is administered by
the PolyOne Corporation Retirement Plan Committee.
Contributions
Employee
A participant who is not a highly compensated employee may elect a bi-weekly payroll deduction from
1% to 50% of eligible earnings while participants who are classified as highly compensated
employees may elect a bi-weekly payroll deduction of 1% to 15% of eligible earnings. The Retirement
Plan Committee has the authority at its discretion to reduce the employees bi-weekly contribution
percentage in order to maintain the tax-qualified status of the Plan.
The Plan offers participants the choice of two savings options: an after-tax savings option and a
pretax savings option. Participants may elect to participate in either or both of the savings
options. Under both savings options, participants may direct that contributions be invested in any
eligible funds offered by the Plan. Participants may change their investment options daily.

1. Summary Description of the Plan (continued)
Contributions
(continued)
Employer
The Company provides for a matching contribution equal to 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the next
3% of the participants eligible compensation. For each payroll period, the Company intends to make
a retirement contribution for each participant equal to 2% of eligible earnings. Both the employer
matching contributions and the 2% retirement contributions follow the participants investment
elections. In addition the Company will make additional contributions to certain eligible
participants, as defined, equal to 1% to 4% of eligible compensation.
The Plan provides for the acceptance of rollover contributions from other plans qualified under the
Internal Revenue Code (the Code). Rollover contributions can be made only in cash to the Plans
tax-deferred savings option.
Forfeiture accounts in the Plan total approximately $434,532 at December 31, 2007 and are held in
the NYL Insurance Anchor Account I Stable Value Fund (NYL Anchor). The balance in these accounts
will be used to fund future Company contributions and Plan administrative expenses.
Vesting
Participant contributions and Company matching and discretionary contributions are fully vested
immediately. Company retirement contributions are 100% vested after three years of service.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow a maximum amount equal to the lesser of 50% of their vested account balance
(excluding amounts relating to discretionary profit sharing contributions) or $50,000, subject to
certain Department of Labor and Internal Revenue Service requirements. The Plan provides that loan
amounts must be a minimum of $1,000. Interest is charged to the borrower at the trustees prime
rate plus 1%. Payments on loans are made through payroll deductions and must be repaid within five
years (personal loans) or five to fifteen years (primary residence loans).

1. Summary Description of the Plan (continued)
Plan Withdrawals and Distributions
Active participants may make hardship withdrawals from their salary deferral and rollover account.
Age-based in-service withdrawals are available from the participants vested account balance.
Plan distributions are made to participants or their designated beneficiary upon normal retirement,
disability, or death, in the full amounts credited to their participant account. A participant who
leaves employment of the Company before normal retirement for reasons other than disability, death,
or a reduction in workforce is eligible to receive all amounts credited to their account relating
to participant contributions, including rollovers, and the vested portion of Company matching and
discretionary contributions. Distributions are made in either a single lump sum or periodic
payments. Additionally, employees of select merged plans may elect a portion in a lump sum with the
remainder paid in periodic payments, a single life annuity for single participants, or a joint and
50% or 100% survivor annuity with the participants spouse as the joint annuitant for married
participants if these options were available under their previous plan.
Plan Termination
Although the Company has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the
Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions of ERISA. Upon either of these events, the accounts of each affected employee will vest
immediately, and participants will receive a distribution of their total participant account
balance.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses of the Plan are generally paid through the forfeiture account. Participants
are charged investment management fees, which are allocated to participant accounts.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncement
In December 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position AAG
INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain
Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health
and Welfare and Pension Plans (the FSP). The FSP defines the circumstances in which an investment
contract is considered fully benefit responsive and provides certain reporting and disclosure
requirements for fully benefit responsive investment contracts in defined contribution health and
welfare and pension plans.
7
PolyOne Retirement Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
New Accounting Pronouncement (continued)
The financial statement presentation and disclosure provisions of the FSP are effective for
financial statements issued for annual periods ending after December 15, 2006 and are required to
be applied retroactively to all prior periods presented for comparative purposes. The Plan has
adopted the provisions of the FSP at December 31, 2006.
As required by the FSP, investments in the accompanying Statements of Net Assets Available for
Benefits include fully benefit responsive investment contracts recognized at fair value. AICPA
Statement of Position 94-4-1, Reporting of Investment Contracts Held by Health and Welfare Benefit
Plans and Defined Contribution Pension Plans, as amended, requires fully benefit responsive
investment contracts to be reported at fair value in the Plans Statement of Net Assets Available
for Benefits with a corresponding adjustment to reflect these investments at contract value.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair
value, establishes the framework for measuring fair value under U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS
No. 157 to have a material impact on the statement of net assets available for benefits or the
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition
Investments are stated at fair value. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are
valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the Plan year. Investments for
which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the average of the last reported bid and ask
prices. Shares of mutual funds are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net asset
values of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Common/collective trust funds are stated at fair
value, as determined by the trustee.
The NYL Anchor comprises 100% and 99.8% at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, of the PolyOne
Stable Value Fund. The NYL Anchor is a pooled separate account made available to participating
plans through a group annuity contract offered to the plans trustee. The group annuity contract is
an investment contract that is benefit-responsive. The investment contract is recorded at contract
value (i.e., book value), which represent contributions and reinvested income, less any withdrawals
plus accrued interest.

PolyOne Retirement Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Valuation of Investments and Income Recognition (continued)
Participants may ordinarily direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their
investment at contract value. However, withdrawals influenced by Company-initiated events, such as
in connection with the sale of a business, may result in a distribution at other than contract
value.
The contract value of the investment contracts at December 31, 2007 and 2006, was $56,866,036 and
$52,662,621, respectively. There are no reserves against contract values for credit risk of
contract issuer or otherwise.
The fair value of the investment contracts at December 31, 2007 and 2006, was $56,479,347 and
$51,093,275, respectively. The net average yield was approximately 4.29% and 4.18% in 2007 and
2006. The crediting interest rate for these investment contracts is reset daily by the issuer but
cannot be less than zero and was approximately 5.24% and 4.94% at
December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value. Purchases
and sales of securities are reported on a trade date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Gains and losses on security
transactions are determined using the average cost method.
3. Investments
The fair value of individual investments that represent 5% or more of the Plans net assets are as

4. Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various
risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of
investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect
participants account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available
for benefits.
5. Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated March 10,
2004, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code. As a result the related
trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to this determination by the Internal Revenue Service,
the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code
to maintain its qualification. The Plan Sponsor believes the Plan is being operated in compliance
with the applicable requirements of the Code, and therefore, believes that the Plan, as amended, is
qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.

Deemed distributions of participant loans are loans that are in default by participants of the
Plan. While the U.S. Department of Labor does not recognize these loans as assets for regulatory
reporting, they are included as assets (i.e., loans) in the financial statements of the Plan.
The accompanying financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 11-K are prepared using the
accrual method of accounting. The Form 5500 is prepared using the cash basis of accounting.
Therefore, Plan receivables represent a reconciling item.
