NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
(1) 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 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, 1996 and the
results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1996
and 1995.
(2) Income Per Share
----------------
Income per share is determined on the basis of the weighted average
number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during the
period with the 1995 data adjusted for the ten percent stock dividend paid in
August, 1995.
(3) Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information
------------------------------------------------
The Company made cash payments for interest expense of $396,982 and
$210,954 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Cash payments for income taxes were $1,269,618 and $329,216 for the three

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased
$5,053,279 or 7.5 percent over the same period in 1995. The increase was
primarily due to the inclusion of Ameri-Kart Corp. which was acquired in June,
1995.
Cost of sales for the three month period ended March 31, 1996
increased $1,913,455 or 4.1 percent over the period ended March 31, 1995. This
was attributable to the increase in sales. Gross profit, expressed as a
percentage of sales, increased to 33.6 percent in 1996 from 31.4 percent for
the three month period in 1995 primarily due to lower raw material costs in the
Manufacturing segment.
Operating expenses increased $520,672 or 3.5 percent for the three
month period ended March 31, 1996, as compared to the same period in 1995.
Operating expenses, expressed as a percentage of sales, decreased to 21.1
percent as compared to 21.9 percent in 1995 as the result of cost controls and
greater fixed expense coverage.
Net interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 1996
increased to $169,538 compared to $99,435 for the same period in 1995. The
increase was attributable to both higher average levels of debt and higher
interest rates in the current year.
Income taxes, expressed as a percentage of income before income taxes,
increased to 41.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 1996, from the
40.4 percent in the same period in 1995. The higher effective tax rate
reflects an increase in non-deductible amortization expense and foreign tax
rate differences.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Company's financial position continues to be solid. Cash provided
from operating activities is the primary source of liquidity and amounted to
$12,959,188 for the three month period ended March 31, 1996. During the
quarter long-term debt was reduced by $6,357,862 and total debt at March 31,
1995, expressed as a percentage of total capitalization, decreased to 4.7
percent as compared to 9.0 percent at December 31, 1995. Working capital
decreased to $65,519,612 at March 31, 1996 from $68,715,271 at December 31,
1995.
During the quarter, capital expenditures were $4,416,457. The Company
currently anticipates capital expenditures in the range of $15.0 to $20.0
million per year over the next five years, primarily for increased polymer
manufacturing capacity. Management believes that anticipated cash flows from
operations and available credit facilities will be sufficient to fund capital
expenditures and meet its short-term and long-term operating needs.
