Repurchased $1 Million in Shares as Part of $10 Million 2025 Share Repurchase Program

Strategically Positioned to Provide Customers with U.S. Supply Chain Options as more than 90% of Material Handling’s 2025 Revenue is Expected to be Manufactured in the U.S.

Previously Announced CFO Transition Plan

AKRON, Ohio, May 01, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Myers Industries Inc. (NYSE: MYE), a leading manufacturer of products that protect the world from the ground up, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Myers Industries’ President and CEO Aaron Schapper commented, "We are pleased to report first quarter results of improved profitability on flat sales driven by the contribution of our Signature acquisition and strong performance of our Scepter military products. Further, we reduced our SG&A across the businesses. Our 'Focused Transformation' program, launched earlier this year, is gaining momentum as we foster a culture of accountability and ignite a renewed drive among employees. I have been encouraged by conversations with our teams as we identify opportunities and actions to drive enterprise-wide improvements. During the quarter, we activated our previously announced $10 million 2025 Share Repurchase Program, demonstrating our commitment to return cash to shareholders. Finally, the fact that fifteen of our sixteen manufacturing sites are located within the U.S. enables us to provide our customers with supply chain sourcing optionality and a level of insulation from potential tariff impacts. As we move forward, we remain committed to transforming our organization by building a culture rooted in accountability, continuous improvement, and a profitable growth mindset."

Net sales: Slightly lower as higher demand in Infrastructure and Industrial, particularly military applications, was offset by lower Food & Beverage demand due to cyclicality of seed box demand and lower Automotive Aftermarket demand.
Gross profit: Increased due to product sales mix, led by higher sales in Infrastructure due to the Signature acquisition.
Operating income: Increased due to improved mix and lower material and manufacturing costs. The 2024 comparison period also includes $6.5 million of Signature acquisition and integration costs, including acquisition-related inventory step up.

2025 End Market Outlook

The following table presents our current 2025 outlook for each of our end markets. Our 2025 end market outlook is unchanged from the outlook we provided on March 6, 2025, unless otherwise noted.

End Markets (TTM Sales as of March 31, 2025)	2025 Outlook
Industrial (30% of sales) Akro-Mils^®, Buckhorn^® & Jamco^® containers, organizational bins, totes, carts and cabinets; Scepter^® military ammunition containers; OEM parts for general industrial equipment	Moderate growth
Infrastructure (13% of sales) Signature Systems™ ground protection matting for construction, industrial sites, and event venues	Strong growth
Vehicle (13% of sales) RV, marine, and automotive components	Down (was "Stable to down")
Consumer (11% of sales) Scepter^® fuel cans; outdoor furniture and equipment	Stable, affected by hurricane responses
Food & Beverage (8% of sales) Buckhorn^® seed boxes, intermediate bulk containers, and Tuff Series bulk containers for agricultural and chemical customers	Stable
Automotive Aftermarket Distribution (25% of sales) Distribution sales to tire service aftermarket	Slightly down

Myers products are largely produced domestically. In 2025, we expect more than 90% of revenue from the Material Handling segment to be manufactured from our fifteen manufacturing sites within the U.S. We consistently monitor the effect of end-market dynamics, including price and volume; however, we expect minimal direct impact from current tariffs.

Caution on Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this release include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including information regarding the Company’s financial outlook, future plans, objectives, business prospects and anticipated financial performance. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "will," "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "plan," or variations of these words, or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, these statements inherently involve a wide range of inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. The Company’s actual actions, results, and financial condition may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Specific factors that could cause such a difference on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity include, without limitation, raw material availability, increases in raw material costs, or other production costs; risks associated with our strategic growth initiatives or the failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of such initiatives; unanticipated downturn in business relationships with customers or their purchases; competitive pressures on sales and pricing; changes in the markets for the Company’s business segments; changes in trends and demands in the markets in which the Company competes; operational problems at our manufacturing facilities or unexpected failures at those facilities; future economic and financial conditions in the United States and around the world, including the impacts of U.S. and foreign tariff policies; inability of the Company to meet future capital requirements; claims, litigation and regulatory actions against the Company; changes in laws and regulations affecting the Company; unforeseen events, including natural disasters, unusual or severe weather events and patterns, public health crises, geopolitical crises, and other catastrophic events; and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Given these factors, as well as other variables that may affect our operating results, readers should not rely on forward-looking statements, assume that past financial performance will be a reliable indicator of future performance, nor use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date thereof. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or intention to provide updates to the forward-looking statements and the estimates and assumptions associated with them.
