Notes to Financial Statements

        The Company previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003, that it expects to contribute approximately $996,000 to its defined benefit plans in 2004. As of March 31, 2004, no contributions have been made, however, the Company still anticipates contributing approximately $996,000 to fund its defined benefit pension plans in 2004.

(7)     Segment Information

        The Company's business units have separate management teams and offer different products and services. Using the criteria of FASB No. 131, these business units have been aggregated into two reportable segments; Distribution of after-market repair products and services and Manufacturing of polymer products. The aggregation of business units is based on management by the chief operating decision maker for the segment as well as similarities of production processes, distribution methods and economic characteristics (e.g. average of gross margin and the impact of economic conditions on long-term financial performance).

        The Company's distribution segment is engaged in the distribution of equipment, tools and supplies used for tire servicing and automotive underbody repair. The distribution segment operates domestically through 40 branches located in major cities throughout the United States and in foreign countries through export and businesses in which the Company holds an equity interest.

        The Company's manufacturing segment designs, manufactures and markets a variety of polymer based plastic and rubber products. These products are manufactured primarily through the molding process in facilities throughout the United States and Europe.

        Sales to external customers for manufactured plastic products, including WEK Industries, were $130.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, while sales to external customers of rubber products, including Michigan Rubber Products, were $17.1 million. In the prior year, sales of plastic products to external customers were $119.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 while sales to external customers of rubber products were $11.8 million for the quarter.

        Operating income for each segment is based on net sales less cost of products sold and the related selling, administrative and general expenses. In computing segment operating income, general corporate overhead expenses and interest expenses are not included.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
              Results of Operations

Results of Operations

        For the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company had sales of $185.5 million, an increase of 14 percent from the prior year and net income of $8.9 million, an increase of 23 percent from $7.2 million reported in the first quarter of 2003. Net income per share was $.29, an increase of 21 percent compared with $.24 in the prior year period. On March 10, 2004, the Company acquired ATP Automotive, Inc.(ATP) a manufacturer of molded rubber and plastic products through its subsidiaries Michigan Rubber Products (MRP) and WEK Industries (WEK). On a proforma basis, including the results of the acquired businesses for the full quarter, net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 would have been $197.8 million with net income of $9.3 million or $.31 per share compared with net sales of $178.2 million for the first quarter of 2003 with net income of $7.9 million or $.26 per share.

        The net sales of $185.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 were the highest of any quarter in the Company's history and reflected stronger demand in both the distribution and manufacturing segments. In addition, favorable foreign currency translation increased sales by $6.7 million or 4 percent and contributions from the acquisition of MRP and WEK increased sales by $4.4 million or 3 percent. Without the impact of the favorable foreign currency translation and acquired businesses, net sales would have increased $11.2 million or 7 percent. Sales in the distribution segment increased 18 percent to $37.6

million reflecting higher unit volumes from increased sales to the auto dealer market and strong demand from tire dealers for both equipment and supplies. In the manufacturing segment, sales increased 13 percent to $151.5 million; however, without the impact of foreign currency translation or acquired businesses, sales increased only 5 percent. The increase in manufacturing segment sales was primarily the result of higher volume as the Company experienced positive growth in nearly all of its major markets.

        Cost of sales increased $15.1 million or 14 percent reflecting the higher sales volume as well as increased costs for raw materials compared with the prior year. Gross profit, expressed as a percent of sales, was virtually unchanged at 32.9 percent compared to 33.0 percent in the prior year. In the distribution segment, relatively stable selling prices and costs resulted in consistent gross profit margins between years. In the manufacturing segment, margins were also consistent as slightly higher selling prices and improved capacity utilization offset an increase in plastic resin raw material costs.

        Total operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 increased $4.0 million or 10 percent compared to the prior year period. Approximately, $2.4 million or 60 percent of this increase was due to the impact of foreign currency translation. In addition, the Company experienced increased freight and selling expenses related to the higher sales volumes experienced in the current year. Expressed as a percent of sales, operating expenses were reduced to 23.7 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared with 24.5 percent in the prior year

        Net interest expense increased $.6 million or 26 percent compared with the prior year period. The increase was primarily the result of higher interest rates, particularly for the $100 million of senior notes at 6.08 percent and 6.81 percent issued in December 2003. In addition, the Company increased borrowing by approximately $60 million in March 2004 in connection with the ATP acquisition.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
              Results of Operations

        Income taxes as a percent of income before taxes was virtually unchanged at 36.8 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared with 36.9 percent in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Cash provided by operating activities was $14.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared with $3.7 million for the same period in the prior year. During the quarter, debt increased $56.8 million as a result of the acquisition of ATP. Debt as a percentage of total capitalization increased to 47 percent at March 31, 2004 compared with 42 percent at December 31, 2003. At
March 31, 2004, the Company had working capital of $129.2 million and a current ratio of 2.2.

        On February 27, 2004, the Company entered into a new five year, $225 million unsecured revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the new credit facility were used to refinance the Company's then outstanding bank debt of $98.9 million and fund the acquisition of ATP for approximately $60 million. At March 31, 2004 the Company had approximately $63 million available under the new credit facility.

Part I - Financial Information
Myers Industries, Inc.

        Capital expenditures for the quarter were $5.4 million and are expected to be in the range of $20 to $25 million for the full year. Management believes that cash flows from operations and available credit facilities will be sufficient to meet expected business requirements including capital expenditures, dividends, working capital and debt service.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

        The Company has financing arrangements that require interest payments based on floating interest rates. As such, the Company's financial results are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Our objective in managing the exposure to interest rate changes is to limit the volatility and impact of rate changes on earnings while maintaining the lowest overall borrowing cost. 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.

        Some of the Company's subsidiaries operate in foreign countries and, as such, their financial results are subject to the variability that arises from exchange rate movements. The Company believes that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations do not represent a significant market risk due to the nature of the foreign countries in which we operate, primarily Canada and Western Europe, as well as the size of those operations relative to the total Company.

        The Company uses certain commodities, primarily plastic resins, in its manufacturing processes. As such, the cost of operations is subject to fluctuation as the market for these commodities changes. The Company monitors this risk but 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

        As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2004. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to March 31, 2004.
