Myers Industries Reports 2016 Second Quarter Results
GAAP EPS of $0.19; Adjusted EPS of $0.21
Company Maintained Gross Margin despite Volume and Revenue Declines
August 3, 2016, Akron, Ohio - Myers Industries, Inc. (NYSE: MYE) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016.
Second Quarter 2016 Business Highlights
• | Net sales decreased 12% (or 11% organic) compared to the second quarter of 2015 |
• | Gross profit margin 30.9%, compared to 30.8% for the second quarter of 2015 |
• | GAAP income per diluted share from continuing operations $0.19, compared to $0.35 for the second quarter of 2015 |
• | Adjusted income per diluted share from continuing operations $0.21, compared to $0.30 for the second quarter of 2015 |
President and Chief Executive Officer Dave Banyard commented, “A weakened environment for capital spending in some of our key end markets contributed to the shortfall in sales in both the Material Handling and Distribution segments during the second quarter. Based on these results and our current indicators, we now expect full-year revenue to be down mid-to-high single digits.”
Banyard continued, “Despite the lower sales volume, we delivered solid margins and concurrently made progress on our strategic plans during the quarter. I am pleased with the extensive strategic marketing work we completed and the key initiatives we established for each of our businesses. In light of the current market environment, we are accelerating certain cost actions within those initiatives and expect to provide a more comprehensive update of our long-term strategy later this year.”

Segment Results
Net sales in theMaterial Handling Segment for the second quarter of 2016 were down 13% (or 12% organic) vs. the second quarter of 2015 due primarily to declines in the food and beverage markets.

The segment’s adjusted operating income was $13.3 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared to $18.3 million for the second quarter of 2015.
Net sales in theDistribution Segmentfor the second quarter of 2016 were down 11% vs. the second quarter of 2015. The decline was primarily the result of lower equipment sales.

The segment’s operating income was $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared to $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2015.
2016 Outlook

Note on Reconciliation of Income and Earnings Data: Income from continuing operations as adjusted and adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations are non-GAAP financial measures 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.
