Earnings Presentation
Exhibit 99.2


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) Changes in the markets for the Company’s business segments
(2) Changes in trends and demands in the markets in which the Company competes
(3) Unanticipated downturn in business relationships with customers or their purchases
(4) Competitive pressures on sales and pricing
(5) Raw material availability, increases in raw material costs, or other production costs
(6) Harsh weather conditions
(7) Future economic and financial conditions in the United States and around the world
(8) Inability of the Company to meet future capital requirements
(9) Claims, litigation and regulatory actions against the Company
(10) Changes in laws and regulations affecting the Company
(11) The Company’s ability to execute the components of its Strategic Business Evolution process
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 be found online at
www.myersind.com and at the SEC.gov web site.

Second Quarter 2015 Financial Summary
3
Net sales increased due to the Scepter
acquisition and new product sales, but
were partially offset by decreased
sales in the Material Handling
Segment’s agricultural,  industrial,
recreational vehicle and marine end
markets
Gross profit margin increased due to
the contribution from Scepter, pricing
actions, new product sales and
ongoing cost reduction activities
SG&A decreased due to the reversal of
a litigation reserve, lower salaries and
other employee related expenses and
lower variable selling expenses,
including freight, all of which more
than offset the incremental SG&A
expense from Scepter

Incremental sales of $28.6 million from 
Scepter and new product sales were
partially offset by sales declines in the
agriculture, industrial, recreational
vehicle and marine end markets as
compared to Q2 2014, which resulted
from weaker demand and a tough
industrial economy
Adjusted income before taxes (IBT)
increased versus Q2 2014 due to the
contribution from Scepter, pricing
actions, reductions in labor and
overhead costs and decreased selling,
general and administrative expenses

The decrease in Distribution sales
as compared to Q2 of last year was
the result of decreased demand for
some of the segment’s tire repair
and retread products due to soft
market conditions
The lower sales volume and a shift
in product mix led to the decline in
adjusted income before taxes year-
over-year

Outlook/Guidance
Challenging market conditions in Material Handling expected to continue  in 2015
Decreased corn production and low crop prices are expected to continue to decrease demand for
agricultural storage containers, but seeing signs that order activity may increase in second half
Shift of orders from Q3 into Q2 will add to anticipated decline in sales of agricultural storage containers
in Q3 2015
Softer demand in industrial, recreational vehicle and marine end markets expected to continue for the
near-term
Third  quarter and full year 2015 results should benefit from re-introduction of legacy
products which began in the third quarter of 2015
Additional legacy product re-introductions have been identified and will be introduced early in 2016
Capital expenditures for continuing operations in 2015 are expected to be approximately $30
million
Approximately 70% of Capital Expenditures will be used for growth and productivity projects
Anticipate effective tax rate for full year 2015 will be approximately 32.5%
A result of shift to more international earnings with a full year of Scepter in our results
Capital Allocation in near-term focused on investment in capital for growth and paying down
debt to reduce leverage; long-term focus remains balanced:
Organic growth investments in new products, process improvements and market development
Growth through acquisitions in both core and adjacent markets
Returning capital to stakeholders through debt reduction, dividends and share repurchases

Data:
Income
(loss)
excluding
the
items
mentioned
above
in
the
text
of
this
release
and
in
this
reconciliation
chart
is
a
non-GAAP
financial
measure
that
Myers

Inc.
calculates
according
to
the
schedule
above,
using
GAAP
amounts
from
the
unaudited
Consolidated
Financial
Statements.
The
Company
believes
that
the
excluded
items
are
not
primarily
related
to
core
operational
activities.
The
Company
believes
that
income
(loss)
excluding
items
that
are
not
primarily
related
to
core
operating
activities
is
generally
viewed
as
providing
useful
information
regarding
a
company's
operating
profitability.
Management
uses
income
(loss)
excluding
these
items
as
well
as
other
financial
measures
in
connection
with
its
decision-making
activities.
Income
(loss)
excluding
these
items
should
not
be
considered
in
isolation
or
as
a
substitute
for
net
income
(loss),
income
(loss)
before
taxes
or
other
consolidated
income
data
prepared
in
accordance
with
GAAP.
The
Company's
method
for
calculating

excluding
these

may
not
be
comparable
to
methods
used
by
other
companies.
