Exhibit 99.2
Myers Industries, Inc.


Statements in this presentation concerning the Company’s goals, strategies, and expectations for business
and financial results may be "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on current indicators and expectations.  Whenever you read a
statement that is not simply a statement of historical fact (such as when we describe what we "believe,"
"expect," or "anticipate" will occur, and other similar statements), you must remember that our expectations
may
not
be
correct,
even
though
we
believe
they
are
reasonable.
We
do
not
guarantee
that
the
transactions
and
events
described
will
happen
as
described
(or
that
they
will
happen
at
all).
You
should
review
this
presentation with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what we
expect.  Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control or predict.  You
are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement.  We do not intend, and undertake
no obligation, to update these forward-looking statements.  These statements involve a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the
applicable statements.  Such risks include:
(1) Fluctuations in product demand and market acceptance
(2) Uncertainties associated with the general economic conditions in domestic and international markets
(3) Increased competition in our markets
(4) Changes in seasonality
(5)
Difficulties
in
manufacturing
operations,
such
as
production
outages
or
maintenance
programs
(6) Raw material availability
(7)
Fluctuations
in
raw
material
costs;
fluctuations
outside
the
“normal”
range
of
industry
cycles
(8) Changes in laws and regulations and approvals and decisions of courts, regulators, and
governmental bodies
Myers Industries, Inc. encourages investors to learn more about these risk factors. A detailed
explanation of these factors is available in the Company’s publicly filed quarterly and annual reports,
which
can

Results in the Material Handling Segment should benefit from the
shift in demand from the second quarter to late in the second half
in higher margin agricultural and food processing markets.
Anticipate stronger order activity in the Lawn & Garden Segment
in the second half as inventories are replenished and customers
prepare for next season.
Anticipate continued headwinds in Distribution due to a decline in
miles driven and replacement tire sales.
Expect continued strength in the marine market of our
Engineered Products Segment  as boat builders switch to our EPA
approved fuel system.
Despite
a
mixed
economy,
expect
overall
results
in
second
half
to
benefit
from
our
operations
excellence
initiatives
and
the
shift
in
orders in Material Handling.
Full-year results should reflect another year of solid results and
successful execution of our strategic principles.
