Myers Industries Announces 2026 Third Quarter Results

img184536972_0.gif

Grew Revenue 8.1% as Focused Transformation Initiatives Drive Commercial Excellence Across Growth Platforms Spike in Resin Costs and Unfavorable Product Mix Pressured Third Quarter Margins; Anticipate Significant Sequential Fourth Quarter Margin Improvement Based on Pricing Actions and Resin Stabilization Reduced SG&A Expense as a Percent of Revenue Year-over-year, Indicating Sustained Focused Transformation Savings and Disciplined Investment with Growth Myers Tire Supply Divestiture Simplifies Portfolio and Enables Focus on Growth Platforms to Drive Sustainable Value Creation October 29, 2026, Akron, Ohio - Myers Industries Inc. (NYSE: MYE), a leading manufacturer of Products that Protect™, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Myers Industries President and CEO Aaron Schapper commented, “Our Focused Transformation initiatives continued to drive commercial excellence across our growth platforms, resulting in a year-over-year increase in revenue. At the same time, a significant spike in resin cost and unfavorable product mix pressured gross margins in the quarter. Resin costs have since declined and stabilized from their recent peak, while our pricing actions remain in place and continue to support margin recovery. With the completion of our sale of Myers Tire Supply, we have further focused our portfolio on our core specialty engineered products and are driving operational productivity and disciplined cost control to offset the inflationary environment. We expect significant sequential margin improvement in the fourth quarter and the outlook for our end markets remains favorable.”

•

Net sales increased 10.4% excluding the impact from our decision to exit approximately $3 million low-margin products with the idling of two rotational molding facilities in the fourth quarter of 2025. Infrastructure grew 38% and Food & Beverage grew 12%. Sales were flat in the Industrial, Vehicle and Consumer end markets.

•

Gross profit and Operating income decreased due to higher resin costs, unfavorable mix and unplanned maintenance costs, partially offset by higher volume and pricing actions.

•

EPS from continuing operations decreased 23.5% and adjusted EPS from continuing operations improved 3.2%. Lower interest expense and tax expense offset the decrease in operating income; GAAP EPS also reflects the non-cash extinguishment loss from amending the credit agreement.

Balance Sheet & Cash Flow

•

Total liquidity was $254.7 million, including $201.2 million of availability under the revolving credit facility and $53.5 million in cash on hand.

•

Cash flow from operations was $17.4 million, free cash flow was $11.5 million, and capital expenditures were $5.9 million.

•

Net debt as defined by the credit agreement was reduced by $28.5 million while the net leverage ratio improved to 1.86x from 1.94x from the second quarter.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted operating income margin, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share (adjusted EPS), and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures and are intended to serve as a supplement to results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Myers Industries believes that such information provides an additional measurement and consistent historical comparison of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available in this news release.

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 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, 2025. 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.
