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 segment; (2)  changes in trends
and demands in the markets in which the Company competes; (3) unanticipated downturn in business relationships with customers
or their purchase; (4) competitive pressures on sales and pricing; (5) raw material availability, increases in raw material costs, or
other
production
cost;
(6)
harsh
weather
condition;
(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 plan; and other risks as detailed in the Company’s 10-K and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
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
