     Statement of Accounting Policy

         The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Myers Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (Company), and have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in 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 Company's 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, 2005, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

     Contingencies

         On July 15, 2004, the Company announced that it had reported to the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission certain international business practices that were believed to be in violation of U.S. and, possibly, foreign laws. The practices, which involved a limited number of customers, related to the invoicing of certain sales to foreign customers of the Company's distribution segment and sales made by foreign subsidiaries to prohibited customers in certain prohibited international jurisdictions. These business practices were discontinued and an investigation, which has been substantially completed, was conducted by outside counsel under the authority of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The results of the investigation have been provided to the DOJ and the SEC. If the government determines that these incidents were unlawful, the government could take action against the Company and/or some of its empl oyees. We will seek to settle any enforcement issues arising from these matters, however, at this time we cannot reasonably estimate its potential liability and, therefore, as of March 31, 2005, and the date of this filing, the Company has not recorded any provision for any resulting settlements or potential fines or penalties. Such amounts could be material to the Company's financial statements. The Company believes that the practices in question have no effect on previously filed financial statements, and that the final findings from the investigation will not lead to any restatement of reported financial results.

     Acquisitions

         On March 10, 2004, the Company acquired all of the shares of ATP Automotive, Inc. (ATP), a subsidiary of Applied Tech LLC. ATP and its operating subsidiaries Michigan Rubber Products (MRP) and WEK Industries (WEK) are manufacturers of molded rubber and plastic products for the automotive industry with manufacturing facilities in Michigan (MRP) and Ohio (WEK). The total purchase price was approximately $61 million, which includes the assumption of ATP debt outstanding as of the acquisition date. ATP compliments our existing product offering in our plastic and rubber original equipment and replacements parts market. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their fair values as determined by appraisals, other studies and additional information as shown in the table below.

         On July 7, 2004, the Company acquired the operations and assets of Productivity California, Inc. (Pro Cal), a leading manufacturer of plastic nursery containers and specialty printed containers for professional growers based in South Gate, California. The total acquisition cost was approximately $18.5 million including approximately $3.8 million in cash and 1,054,900 shares of the Company's stock. In addition, for a one-year period ending July 7, 2005, the Company has agreed to issue additional shares of common stock in the event that shares issued in connection with the Pro Cal acquisition are sold at a price below the $12.73 per share value at issuance or if the value of shares originally issued is below $12.73 on the anniversary date. As of March 31, 2005 no additional shares have been issued. In connection with the acquisition the Company also assumed approximately $10 million of Pro Cal debt. Pro Cal is a natural expansion to the Company' s plastic horticultural product offering. The purchase price will be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values when appraisals and additional information become available.

         On September 24, 2004, the Company acquired certain assets of Premium Molding Inc. d/b/a Diakon Molding (Diakon), a manufacturer of plastic refuse collection containers and other blow molded products located in Reidsville, North Carolina. Diakon enables Myers to better serve certain customers in the Southeastern United States. The assets acquired including cash, accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment and intangibles such as customer lists, license and intellectual property were purchased for $4.4 million. In addition, the Company assumed certain liabilities of Diakon including trade payables and certain accrued liabilities related to the business operations.

     The allocations of purchase price for ATP and Diakon, and the preliminary allocation for Pro Cal are as follows:

(In thousands)	ATP		Pro Cal		Diakon

     Goodwill

          The change in goodwill for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 is as follows:

Total	$279,576	$0	$(5,232)	$274,344

     Net Income Per Share

        Net income per share, as shown on the Condensed Statement of Consolidated Income, is determined on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and for all periods shown basic and diluted earnings per share are identical.

     Stock Compensation

        The Company accounts for stock compensation arrangements using the intrinsic value in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." In accordance with the intrinsic value method, the Company has not recognized any expense related to stock options, as options have only been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the shares at the date of the grant.

        The alternative police in SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," provides that compensation expense be recognized based on the fair value of the options awarded, determined by an option pricing model. The Company did not issue any stock options or incur any stock compensation expense in the periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

        In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FSAS No. 123 (revised) "Share Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123R required that cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and establishes a fair value measurement objective in determining the value of such cost). SFAS No. 123R will become effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 123R on its financial statements.

     Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

        The Company made cash payments for interest expense of $2,216,000 and $1,534,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Cash payments for income taxes totaled $818,000 and $747,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

     Comprehensive Income

        An unaudited summary of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In Thousands)	2005		2004

Other comprehensive income:     Foreign currency translation         Adjustment	(8,859	)	(3,640	)

     Retirement Plans

        For the Company's two defined benefit pension plans, the net periodic benefit cost for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was as follows:

	2005		2004
Service cost	$58,087		$60,078

        The Company previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, that it does not expect to make any contributions to its defined benefit plans in 2005. As of March 31, 2005, no contributions have been made.

     Segment Information

        In 2004, the Company changed its reportable business segments. The business segment information for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was been restated to conform with the current quarter business segment presentation.

       The Company's business units have separate management teams and offer different products and services. Using the criteria of SFAS No. 131, these business units have been aggregated into five reportable segments. These include four manufacturing segments encompassing a diverse mix of plastic and rubber products: 1) Material Handling - North America, 2) Material Handling - Europe, 3) Automotive and Custom, and 4) Lawn and Garden. The fifth segment is Distribution of tire, wheel, and undervehicle service products. The aggregation of operating 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.

        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

        For the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company had record sales of $236.2 million, an increase of 27 percent from the $185.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2004. Contributions from companies acquired in 2004 increased sales by $23.9 million and favorable foreign currency translation also increased sales by $2.8 million. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and currency translations, total net sales for the quarter would have increased $24.0 million or 13 percent compared to the first quarter of 2004. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was $7.8 million, a decrease of 12 percent from the $8.9 million reported in the prior year and net income per share of $.22 was a decrease of 19 percent compared to the $.27 in the first quarter of 2004. The decline in net income was primarily the result of substantially higher costs for plastic raw materials used by the Company's manufacturing business units.

        Sales in the Distribution Segment were $42.1 million, up 12 percent compared to the first quarter 2004. The Company's tire dealer markets and others delivered strong sales for tire and undervehicle service equipment and supplies.

        Sales in the Material Handling - North America Segment were $57.8 million, an increase of 14 percent compared to the same period in 2004. The increase comes from strong unit volumes for plastic reusable containers and pallets in a diverse mix of end markets including industrial manufacturing, automotive, agriculture, and others.

        In the Material Handling - Europe Segment, sales were $44.3 million, 14 percent above the comparable quarter of 2004. Excluding favorable foreign currency translation, primarily the strength of the euro, sales in the segment increased $3.2 million or 8 percent.

        The Automotive and Custom Segment, serving a wide range of OEM automotive, heavy truck, recreational vehicle, and other niche markets with plastic and rubber products, posted sales of $48.0 million in the first quarter, up 43 percent compared to 2004. Excluding contributions from the acquisition of Michigan Rubber Products and WEK, sales in the Automotive and Custom Segment increased $4.4 million or 13 percent.

        First quarter sales in the Lawn and Garden Segment were $50.8 million, 61 percent above the first quarter 2004, due to strong seasonal demand for the Company's plastic flowerpots, nursery containers, and decorative planters from professional plant growers, retail garden centers, and mass merchandisers. Excluding contributions from last year's acquisition of Pro Cal, sales in the Lawn and Garden Segment increased $5.6 million or 18 percent.

        Total cost of sales increased $47.9 million or 39 percent reflecting the higher sales volumes as well as increased costs for raw materials compared with the prior year. Gross profit, expressed as a percent of sales was reduced to 27.0 percent compared to 32.9 percent in the first quarter of 2004. This decline was primarily the result of significantly higher plastic raw material costs experienced by most of the Company's manufacturing business units. Costs were higher for all types of plastic resins used in the Company's manufacturing operations and were, on average, 50 percent higher than the first quarter of 2004. In the Company's Distribution segment, stable selling prices and costs resulted in consistent gross profit margins between years.

        Total operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 increased $4.0 million or 10 percent compared to the prior year period. Approximately $2.9 million of this increase was the result of companies acquired in the prior year and the effect of foreign currency translation also increased operating expenses by $.9 million. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, operating expenses were essentially unchanged and, expressed as a percent of sales, declined to 20.3 percent for the first quarter of 2005 compared to 23.7 percent in the prior year.

        Net interest expense increased $.7 million or 22 percent compared with the first quarter of 2004. The increase was due to higher average borrowing levels in the current year resulting from the acquisitions made in 2004, and increases in interest rates.

        Income taxes as a percent of income before taxes decreased slightly to 35.8 percent from 36.8 percent in the prior year as a result of foreign tax rate differences.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Cash provided by operating activities was $13.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, a slight reduction from the $14.1 million generated in the prior year. During the quarter, total debt increased slightly to $279.5 million and 45 percent of total capitalization at March 31, 2005 compared with $277.4 million and 44 percent at December 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005, the Company had working capital of $159.1 million and a current ratio of 2.1.

        Capital expenditures for the quarter were $3.8 million in the quarter 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.

        On July 15, 2004, the Company announced that it had reported to the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission certain international business practices that were believed to be in violation of U.S. and, possibly, foreign laws. The practices, which involved a limited number of customers, related to the invoicing of certain sales to foreign customers of the Company's distribution segment and sales made by foreign subsidiaries to prohibited customers in certain prohibited international jurisdictions. These business practices were discontinued and an investigation, which has been substantially completed, was conducted by outside counsel under the authority of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The results of the investigation have been provided to the DOJ and the SEC. If the government determines that these incidents were unlawful, the government could take action against the Company and/or some of its employees. We will seek to settle any enforcement issues arising from these matters, however, at this time we cannot reasonably estimate its potential liability and, therefore, as of March 31, 2005 and the date of this filing, the Company has not recorded any provision for any resulting settlements or potential fines of penalties. Such amounts could be material to our financial statements. We believe that the practices in question have no effect of preciously filed financial statements, and that the final findings from the investigation will not lead to any restatement of reported financial results.

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 quarterly report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of Myers Industries, Inc.'s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Myers Industries, Inc.'s internal controls (as defined in Section 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

        Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our company's financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

        As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal controls and procedures are not effective due to material weaknesses in the Company's internal controls over business segment reporting, the financial statement close process and the income tax process which is consistent with the material weaknesses identified in the Company's internal controls as of December 31, 2004 and reported in the Company's Form 10-K/A.

        As disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K/A, the Company is in the process of remediating these material weaknesses as follows:

        The Company has dedicated substantial resources to the review of its internal control processes and procedures. As a result of that review, the Company has taken steps toward remediation of the material weaknesses by: (i) creating and filling the position of Senior Compliance Manager; (ii) creating and filling four new positions of Director of Finance at individual operating units; (iii) establishing a Corporate Compliance Committee; (iv) increasing the size of the internal audit staff from three to five; and (v) implementing procedures to strengthen the quarterly closing process.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

        Other than as described above, there have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
