STATEMENT
Statements in this presentation concerning the Companys 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
Companys business segments (2) Changes in trends and demands in the
markets in which the Company competes (3) Unanticipated downturn in
business relationships with customers or their purchases (4) Competitive
pressures on sales and pricing (5) Raw material availability, increases in
raw material costs, or other production costs (6) Harsh weather
conditions (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 Myers Industries, Inc. encourages investors to learn more about
these risk factors. A detailed explanation of these factors is available in the Companys publicly filed quarterly and annual reports, which can be found online at www.myersindustries.com and at the SEC.gov website.
