accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys
latest annual report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the
financial position as of March 31, 2009, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three
months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. The results of operations for the three months ended March
31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the year
ending December 31, 2009.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141R Business Combinations and FASB
Statement No. 160, Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. Statements
141R and 160 require most identifiable assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests, and goodwill
acquired in a business combination to be recorded at full fair value and require non-controlling
interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be reported as a component of equity,
which changes the accounting for transactions with non-controlling shareholders. The adoption of
these standards did not have a material impact to the Companys statement of financial position,
result of operations or cash flows. The Company will apply the guidance of the statements to
business combinations in 2009 and beyond.
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, and amendment of SFAS No. 133. The Statement requires enhanced
disclosures about an entitys derivative and hedging activities. The adoption of this standard did
not have a material impact to the Companys statement of financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157) as of January 1,
2008. SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in
measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted
prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets
that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in
which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own
assumptions. FASB Staff Position 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, applies to
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities and was effective January 1, 2009. The adoption
of this standard had no impact on the Company in first quarter 2009.
Discontinued Operations
In the first quarter of 2007, the Company sold its European Material handling businesses. In
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the operating results related to
these businesses have been included in discontinued operations in the Companys condensed
statements of consolidated income for all periods presented.
In the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded net income of approximately
$1.7 million as a result of net proceeds received related to the settlement of certain
contingencies in connection with the disposed businesses.
Merger Agreement
On April 3, 2008, the Company entered into a letter agreement mutually terminating the
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) with MYEH Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the Parent) and MYEH
7
Part I Financial Information
Myers Industries, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Unaudited
Acquisition Corporation, an Ohio corporation (MergerCo). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement,
MergerCo would have been merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the
surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the Merger). Parent is
owned by GS Capital Partners, LP (GSCP) and other private equity funds sponsored by Goldman, Sachs
& Co.
The Merger Agreement contained termination rights for both the Company and Parent in the event
the Merger was not consummated by December 15, 2007. In December 2007, an agreement was made to extend this date from
December 15, 2007 to April 30, 2008. This extension did not provide GSCP additional rights with
respect to the potential merger and any consummation of the merger would have remained subject to
satisfaction of the conditions to the closing in the Merger Agreement. In connection with the
extension, GSCP paid the Company a previously agreed upon $35.0 million termination fee in 2007.
This non refundable termination fee, net of related expenses of $8.3 million, was recorded as other
income by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2007. In addition, as permitted by the extension,
the Company paid a special dividend of $0.28 per common share totaling approximately $9.9 million
on January 2, 2008 to shareholders of record as of December 20, 2007.

Restructuring & Impairment Charges
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company continued the implementation of its plan to
restructure the businesses in the Lawn and Garden segment. Certain components of production from
its Surrey, B.C., Brantford, Ontario and Sparks, Nevada manufacturing facilities were reallocated
to the segments other five manufacturing facilities. In conjunction with this reallocation, the
Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million related to certain property, plant, and
equipment at these and other manufacturing Lawn and Garden facilities. The Company also incurred
severance and personnel related, consulting, and other expenses associated with the
restructuring of approximately $5.0 million in the first quarter.
In 2009, the Company expects to incur additional charges of $2.0 million for severance and
other one time termination benefits and $4.1 million of other restructuring charges associated with
the realignment.
Activity related to the Lawn and Garden business restructuring as of March 31, 2009 is as

Also in the first quarter of 2009, the Company announced the closure of its Fostoria, Ohio
facility. As a result, an impairment charge of approximately $1.0 million was recorded to adjust
the carrying value of real estate at this location to its estimated fair value.
Stock Compensation
In 1999, the Company and its shareholders adopted the 1999 Stock Plan allowing the Board of
Directors to grant key employees and Directors various types of stock based awards including stock
options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. In general, options granted and
outstanding vest over three to five years and expire ten years from the date of grant. On January
1, 2009, the 1999 Stock Plan expired by its terms, and these shares were no longer available for
future grants from that date.
Stock compensation expense under SFAS No. 123R reduced income before taxes approximately $0.5
million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These
expenses are included in SG&A expenses in the accompanying Condensed Statements of Consolidated
Income. Total unrecognized compensation cost
related to non-vested share based compensation arrangements at March 31, 2009 was approximately
$3.3 million, which will be recognized over the next four years.

On
April 30, 2009, the shareholders of the Company approved the
adoption of the 2008 Incentive Stock Plan.
The full text of the 2008 Incentive Stock Plan is attached as Exhibit 4.3 to the registration
statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on March 17, 2009. As a
result of this approval, the
Company granted 584,869 options with an exercise price of $10.92 that were originally awarded to
certain employees and non-employees on October 8, 2008. These options
were awarded conditionally based on shareholder approval of the 2008 Stock Incentive plan.
In addition, at March 31, 2009 the Company had 126,000 shares of restricted stock outstanding.
The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying
stock exceeds the exercise price of the option. There were no stock options exercised during the
three months ended March 31, 2009. The total intrinsic value of the options exercised during the
three months ended March 31, 2008 was approximately $0.1 million.
Income Taxes
As of December 31, 2008, the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits in accordance
with FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation
of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), was $6.7 million of which $6.3 million would reduce the
Companys effective tax rate. The amount of accrued interest expense within the Companys
consolidated financial position at December 31, 2008 was $0.4 million.
No material changes have occurred in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits during the three
months ended March 31, 2009. The Company does not expect any significant changes to its unrecognized tax benefit balance
over the next twelve months.

The Company recognizes accrued amounts of interest and penalties related to its uncertain tax
positions as part of its income tax expense within its consolidated statements of income.

Contingencies
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and a party to various other legal proceedings,
in the ordinary course of business, some of which are covered in whole or in part by insurance. We
believe that the outcome of these lawsuits and other proceedings will not individually or in the
aggregate have a future material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
A number of parties, including the Company and its subsidiary, Buckhorn, Inc., were identified
in a planning document adopted in October 2008 by the California Regional Water Quality Control
Board, San Francisco Bay Region (RWQCB). The planning document relates to the presence of mercury,
including amounts contained in mining wastes, in and around the Guadalupe River Watershed
(Watershed) region in Santa Clara County, California. Buckhorn has been
alleged to be a successor in interest to an entity that performed mining operations in a portion of
the Watershed area. The Company has not been contacted by the RWQCB with respect to Watershed
clean-up efforts that may result from the adoption of this planning document. The extent of the
mining wastes that may be the subject of future cleanup has yet to be determined, and the actions
of the RWQCB have not yet advanced to the stage where a reasonable estimate of remediation cost, if
any, is available.
11
Part I Financial Information
Myers Industries, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Unaudited
Although assertion of a claim by the RWQCB is reasonably possible, it is not possible at this time
to estimate the amount of any obligation the Company may incur for these cleanup efforts within the
Watershed region, or whether such cost would be material to the Companys financial statements.
Segment Information
The Companys business units have separate management teams and offer different products and
services. Using the criteria of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information, these business units have been aggregated into four reportable business
segments. These include three manufacturing segments encompassing a diverse mix of plastic and
rubber products: 1) Material Handling, 2) Automotive and Custom, and 3) Lawn and Garden. The
fourth segment is Distribution of tire, wheel, and undervehicle service products. The aggregation
of operating business segments is based on management by the chief operating decision maker for the
segment as well as similarities of products, production processes, distribution methods and
economic characteristics.
Income (Loss) Before Income Taxes for each business segment is based on net sales less cost of
products sold, and the related selling, administrative and general expenses. In computing business
segment operating income, general corporate overhead expenses and interest expenses are not
included.

Sales in the first quarter of 2009 were adversely affected by the weakness in the general
economy, which impacted all segments of the Companys business and all markets in which the Company
sells. The sales decline is primarily due to lower sales volumes and
a decrease of $10.0 million from foreign currency translation and the
unfavorable impact of exchange rates for the Canadian dollar.
Net
sales in the Lawn and Garden segment in the first quarter of 2009
were down $16.0 million or 17% compared to the first quarter of
2008. Approximately $8.7 million of the decrease was due to foreign currency translation from the
unfavorable impact of the exchange rates for the Canadian dollar. Excluding the impact of foreign
currency translation, sales in this segment were down
$7.3 million. Volume declines of $11.2
million were partially offset by increases of $3.9 million from higher selling prices.
In
the Material Handling segment, sales decreased $14.6 million or 20% in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the
same quarter in 2008. Sales were down 15% due to the impact of volume declines in automotive,
industrial and other markets.
Net sales in the Distribution segment decreased $8.2 million or 18% in the first quarter of
2009 compared to the first quarter of 2008. Sales were down primarily due to lower unit volumes
from softer sales of replacement tires and the impact of a weak economy which reduced miles driven.
These factors reduced demand for the Companys tire service and retread consumable supplies. In
addition, sales of equipment in the Distribution segment continued to be weak as tire dealers, auto
dealers, fleet and other customers reduced capital purchases.
In the Auto and Custom segment, net sales in the first quarter of 2009 decreased $19.3
million, or 42% compared to the prior year. The decrease is due to significant volume declines in
the automotive, heavy truck, recreational vehicle and marine markets in the first quarter of 2009.

Gross profit margin increased to 29% in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared with 24% in
the prior year primarily due to lower raw material costs as prices for plastic resins were, on
average, approximately 40% lower in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the first quarter of
2008. In addition, the liquidation of inventories valued at LIFO cost reduced cost of sales by
approximately $1.4 million. The impact of lower raw material costs more than offset the
unfavorable impact of higher manufacturing costs due to a reduction in capacity utilization and
increased unabsorbed overhead.

Selling
and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 were $43.2 million,
which remained consistent with the prior year. Expenses in 2009 include unusual charges of
approximately $5.0 million for consulting fees, movement of machinery and equipment and other
restructuring costs of our Lawn and Garden businesses. These unusual charges were offset by lower
freight and selling expenses from decreased sales volumes.
Impairment Charges from Continuing Operations:
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company continued the implementation of its restructuring
plan in the Lawn and Garden business and announced the closure of its Fostoria, Ohio manufacturing
facility in its Auto and Custom business. In connection with this closure, the Company recorded
impairment charges of $1.3 million for certain property, plant, and equipment, primarily related to
the estimated fair value of its facility in Fostoria, Ohio.

Net interest expense for quarter ended March 31, 2009 was $2.4 million, a decrease of 19%
compared to $3.0 million in the prior year. The decrease was the result of lower average borrowing
levels and lower interest rates compared to the same period last year.

Income before taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, was lower than the same period in
the prior year due to the impact of significantly lower sales volumes and restructuring and
impairment charges totaling $6.4 million. These factors were partially offset by a reduction in
certain raw material costs.

Part I Financial Information
Income tax expense as a percentage of pretax income increased to 38.6% for the quarter ended
March 31, 2009 compared to 37.2% in the prior year. The increase is attributable to changes in the
mix of domestic and foreign composition of income and the related foreign tax rate differences.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash used by operating activities from continuing operations was $2.4 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2009 compared to $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2008. The decrease in cash used for operations was
primarily attributable to a $9.1 million reduction in cash used for working capital which more than
offset a decline of $2.2 million in cash generated from income, excluding depreciation and other
non-cash charges.
The change in cash flow used for working capital was the result of a reduction of inventory
that generated $6.6 million more cash in the first quarter of 2009 compared to 2008 and the Company
using $5.0 million less cash for accounts payable and other current liabilities in the current
year. These benefits to cash flow were partially offset by an increase of $1.1 million used for
accounts receivable, primarily related to seasonal business in the Companys Lawn and Garden
segment and an increase of $1.4 million for prepaid expenses in
the first quarter of 2009.
Capital expenditures were approximately $1.4 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and
are expected to be in the range of $15 to $20 million for the year. In addition, the Company used
cash to pay dividends of $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2009.
Total debt at March 31, 2009 was approximately $181.5 million compared with $169.5 million at
December 31, 2008. The Companys Credit Agreement provides available borrowing up to $250 million
and, as of March 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $174 million available under this
agreement. The Credit Agreement expires in October 2011 and, as of March 31, 2009 the Company was
in compliance with all its debt covenants. The significant financial covenants include an interest
coverage ratio and a leverage ratio, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and
amortization, as adjusted, compared to total debt. The ratios as of and for the period ended
December March 31, 2009 are shown in the following table:

The Company believes that cash flows from operations and available borrowing under its Credit
Agreement will be sufficient to meet expected business requirements including capital expenditures,
dividends, working capital, and debt service into the foreseeable future.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
The Company has certain financing arrangements that require interest payments based on
floating interest rates. The Companys financial results are subject to changes in the market rate
of interest. At present, the Company has not entered into any interest rate swaps or other
derivative instruments to fix the interest rate on any portion of its financing arrangements with
floating rates. Accordingly, based on current debt levels at March 31, 2009, if market interest
rates increase one percent, the Companys interest expense would increase approximately $0.8
million annually.
Some of the Companys subsidiaries operate in foreign countries and their financial results
are subject to exchange rate movements. The Company has operations in Canada with foreign currency
exposure, primarily due to sales made from businesses in Canada to customers in the United States.
These sales are denominated in US dollars. In addition, the Companys subsidiary in Brazil has
loans denominated in U.S. dollars. In 2007, the Company began a systematic program to limit its
exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates related to certain assets and liabilities of its
operations in Canada and Brazil that are denominated in U.S. dollars. The net exposure generally
ranges from $5 to $10 million. The foreign currency contracts and arrangements created under this
program are not designated as hedged items under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, and accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the foreign
currency arrangements, which have been immaterial, are recorded in the income statement. The
Companys foreign currency arrangements are generally three months or less and, as of March 31,
2009, the Company had no foreign currency arrangements or contracts in place.
15
Part I Financial Information
The Company uses certain commodities, primarily plastic resins, in its manufacturing
processes. The cost of operations can be affected as the market for these commodities changes. The
Company currently has no derivative contracts to hedge this risk, however, the Company also has no
significant purchase obligations to purchase fixed quantities of such commodities in future
periods.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure
that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the Commissions rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to the Companys management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing
and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
The Company carries out a variety of on-going procedures, under the supervision and
with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Companys Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by
this report.
There has been no change in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting
during the Companys most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
Part II Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
A number of parties, including the Company and its subsidiary, Buckhorn, Inc., were identified
in a planning document adopted in October 2008 by the California Regional Water Quality Control
Board, San Francisco Bay Region (RWQCB). The planning document relates to the presence of mercury,
including amounts contained in mining wastes, in and around the Guadalupe River Watershed
(Watershed) region in Santa Clara County, California. Buckhorn has been alleged to be a successor
in interest to an entity that performed mining operations in a portion of the Watershed area. The
Company has not been contacted by the RWQCB with respect to Watershed clean-up efforts that may
result from the adoption of this planning document. The extent of the mining wastes that may be the
subject of future cleanup has yet to be determined, and the actions of the RWQCB have not yet
advanced to the stage where a reasonable estimate of remediation cost, if any is available.
Although assertion of a claim by the RWQCB is reasonably possible, it is not possible at this time
to estimate the amount of any obligation the Company may incur for these cleanup efforts within the
Watershed region, or whether such cost would be material to the Companys financial statements.
