Segment Results
The results below are as adjusted and exclude impairment and other unusual pre-tax charges as detailed on the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures included in this release.
Net sales in the Material Handling Segment for the first quarter of 2016 were down 3% (or flat organic) vs. the first quarter of 2015. Strength in the vehicle end market was offset by significant declines in the Brazil business. The segment’s adjusted operating income was $16.0 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $13.5 million for the first quarter of 2015, primarily due to favorable input costs and operational cost improvements.
Net sales in the Distribution Segment for the first quarter of 2016 were down 4% vs. the first quarter of 2015. The decline was the result of lower sales productivity due to the implementation of a new sales team initiative during the quarter. The segment’s adjusted operating income was $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2015.
2016 Outlook
The Company continues to anticipate that total revenue will be flat to down low-single digits on a constant currency basis in fiscal year 2016 as the impacts of softer demand conditions persist across certain of its end markets.

Note on Reconciliation of Income and Earnings Data: Income from continuing operations as adjusted and adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations are non-GAAP financial measures that Myers Industries, 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 income (loss) excluding these items may not be comparable to methods used by other companies.
