• Net sales in the second quarter of 2013 rose 12.7% compared to the second quarter of 2012, reflecting strong sales in the Material Handing Segment.

• The overall gross margin was 27.3% in the second quarter of 2013 compared to 26.2% in the second quarter of 2012. The increase was due mostly to cost savings that resulted from productivity improvements and material substitutions.

• Net Income per diluted share increased 47% to $0.25 in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $0.17 in the second quarter of 2012, reflecting benefits from the Novel and Jamco acquisitions, cost reductions and the improved performance of the Lawn and Garden Segment.

President and Chief Executive Officer John C. Orr said, “I am very pleased with our performance in the second quarter as highlighted by our increased earnings per share of 47% year-over-year. I am particularly pleased with the second consecutive quarter of significant profit improvement in our Lawn and Garden Segment which is reflected in the segment’s year-over-year increase in adjusted income before taxes of $2.7 million. Our recent acquisitions also contributed to our earnings per share growth and continue to be accretive.”

Orr continued, “Earlier today, in a separate release, we announced phase two of our Lawn and Garden Segment restructuring which will position the segment for future growth and deliver annual savings of $8.0 million. A portion of those savings will begin to be realized in the fourth quarter of 2013. This second phase, coupled with the $5.0 million savings from the on-going phase one cost reduction initiative, will result in a total annual savings of $13.0 million in 2014.”

Segment Results

The results below are as adjusted and exclude special 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 second quarter of 2013 were $83.8 million compared to $60.3 million for the second quarter of 2012. The sales increase was driven by the Novel and Jamco acquisitions, a shift in customer orders into the second quarter and organic growth. Material Handling’s adjusted income before taxes was $11.0 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2012. The increase in income before taxes was due mostly to the higher sales volumes and the acquisitions of Novel and Jamco.

Net sales in the Lawn and Garden Segment for the second quarter of 2013 were $40.9 million compared to $42.5 million for the second quarter of 2012. Lawn and Garden’s adjusted income before taxes for the second quarter of 2013 was $1.2 million compared to a loss of $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2012. Productivity improvements and material substitution cost savings were the primary drivers behind the increase in adjusted income before taxes year-over-year.

Net sales in the Distribution Segment were $45.9 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $44.2 million for the second quarter of 2012. The increase in sales was due mostly to sales of new products and market share gains in equipment sales. Distribution’s adjusted income before taxes was $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2012. Distribution continues to be impacted by a slow replacement tire market. Costs associated with an upgrade in the segment’s information technology system contributed to the decline in adjusted income before taxes year-over-year.

Net sales in the Engineered Products Segment were $37.6 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $38.6 million for the second quarter of 2012. Strong sales in the marine and recreational vehicle markets were more than offset by a decline in custom sales year-over-year. Engineered Products’ adjusted income before taxes was $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2012. A favorable product mix and productivity improvements led to the increase in income before taxes year-over-year, despite the lower sales.

Other Financial Items

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flow provided by operations was $30.1 million compared to $7.9 million in the first half of 2012, reflecting efforts to better manage working capital.

Capital expenditures totaled $10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and are still forecasted to be approximately $30 million to $35 million in 2013.

Outlook

The Company expects continued year-over-year improvement in each of the next two quarters in both sales and adjusted earnings excluding special pre-tax adjusted charges. These improvements will come from our recent acquisitions, organic growth, continued reinvestment in our operations, new product introductions, cost savings and the expected benefits from the Lawn and Garden Segment restructuring initiatives.

Note on Reconciliation of Income and Earnings 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 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.

Myers Industries Announces Second Phase of Lawn and Garden Segment Restructuring;

Expected to Generate an Additional $8 Million of Annual Profit Improvement

Previously announced phase one targets $5 million of annual profit improvement

Lawn and Garden Segment expected to earn above Myers’ Cost of Capital in 2015

July 18, 2013, Akron, Ohio — Myers Industries, Inc. (NYSE: MYE) today announced the second phase of its restructuring of its Lawn and Garden Segment. On February 13, 2013, Myers Industries announced internal projects in its Lawn and Garden Segment that would generate annual savings of $5 million by 2014. This project is well underway and is already delivering savings. At that time, the Company indicated it was exploring other initiatives to increase the Lawn and Garden Segment’s value and drive returns above the Company’s cost of capital.

Today’s announced phase two of this restructuring initiative is comprised of a number of actions which include the closure of two plants; one in Brantford, ON and one in Waco, TX and the opening of a plant in Sparks, NV to better serve the west coast market and position the segment for future growth.

These actions are expected to result in an annual profit improvement of approximately $8 million. A portion of the benefits from these actions will begin in the fourth quarter of 2013. The majority of the benefits will be realized throughout 2014 through decreased labor, overhead, plant and freight costs.

The aggregate pre-tax charge for the actions will be approximately $15 million of which $12 million will be cash costs. Approximately 70% of the pre-tax charges will be recorded in the second half of 2013.

“After further evaluation of all options for our Lawn and Garden Segment, at this point the Company has determined that the greatest value can be produced from restructuring the business,” said President and Chief Executive Officer John C. Orr. “Today’s announced restructuring is phase two of our efforts towards increasing the value of the Lawn and Garden Segment. Earlier this year, we announced phase one which is focused on reducing costs in the Nursery and Greenhouse businesses. The combined annual profit improvement from both phases of our restructuring initiative of $13 million will provide for returns above the Company’s cost of capital in the Lawn and Garden Segment in 2015. On a pro forma basis, profit improvement from both phases of our restructuring initiative results in more than a 350% increase over the Lawn and Garden Segment’s 2012 operating earnings.”

Orr also said, “We understand that our decision regarding the restructuring of our Lawn and Garden Segment impacts a number of employees and their families as well as the local communities in which we operate, and we will handle those affected with respect and compassion.”
