Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Myers Industries, Inc. and all wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) 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. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2026, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the year ending December 31, 2026.

Segment Realignment and Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2026, and in conjunction with the announced sale of Myers Tire Supply, the Company transitioned to a new internal organizational and reporting structure, consistent with the manner in which the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates performance and makes resource allocation decisions, supporting a single reportable segment. The Company's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The reportable segment does not include operating segments that have been aggregated. The reportable segment contains individual business components that have been combined on the basis of common management, customers, products, production processes and other economic characteristics. This change in structure has resulted in a more agile organization and solidified achievement of recent productivity improvements and cost efficiency initiatives. In conjunction with the change the Company has begun reporting on this new single-segment structure effective March 31, 2026.

Historical information also reflects discontinued operations presentation for the Myers Tire Supply business, which met the held for sale criteria as described in Note 3. Accordingly, the accompanying Financial Statements and Supplementary Data have been retrospectively revised to reflect the classification of the Myers Tire Supply business as assets and liabilities held-for-sale and their operating results, net of tax, as discontinued operations.

Change in Accounting Principle

As of January 1, 2026, the Company changed its method of accounting for the classification of shipping and handling costs. Under the new method of accounting, the Company includes shipping and handling costs in Cost of sales, whereas previously, these costs were included in operating costs and expenses within Selling, general and administrative for internal costs and Freight out for external costs.

The Company believes that including these expenses in Cost of sales is preferable, as it better aligns these costs with the related revenue in the gross profit calculation and is consistent with the practices of other industry peers. This change in accounting principle has been applied retrospectively, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) reflect the effect of this accounting principle change for all periods presented. This reclassification had no impact on operating income, net income or earnings per common share. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited), Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) (Unaudited), Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity (Unaudited), and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited) were not impacted by this accounting principle change.

The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) were impacted as follows:

The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026 have been adjusted to reflect this change in accounting policy. The impact of the adjustment for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively was an increase of $6.2 million and $11.5 million to Cost of sales, a corresponding decrease of $1.8 million and $4.3 million to Selling, general and administrative and a decrease of $4.4 million and $7.2 million to Freight out, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited).

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU is intended to improve the disclosures about an entity's expenses and requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories to provide more detailed information about the types of expenses commonly presented. For the Company, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments within this ASU should be applied prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this update or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company follows guidance included in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for its financial assets and liabilities, as required. Under ASC 820, the hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data or which reflect the entity’s own assumptions.

The Company has financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value due to the nature and relative short maturity of these assets and liabilities.

The fair value of the Company’s revolving credit facility, as defined in Note 11, approximates carrying value due to the floating rates and the relative short maturity (less than 90 days) of any revolving borrowings under this agreement. The carrying value of the unhedged portion of the Company’s term loan, as defined in Note 11, approximates fair value given that the underlying interest rate applied to such amounts outstanding is currently based upon floating market rates and the Company has the ability to repay the outstanding principal at par value at any time under the terms of this agreement.

The Company has also entered into an interest rate swap contract to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments, as defined in Note 11. The Company uses significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs) in determining the fair value of its interest rate swap that market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk. The fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate swap contract and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves. Refer to the derivative instruments section below for further information regarding the fair value measurements for the interest rate swap.

Derivative Instruments

On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to limit its exposure to changes in interest rates on a portion of its floating rate indebtedness. The interest rate swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge that qualifies for hedge accounting. The swap has a beginning notional value of $200.0 million, which reduces proportionately with scheduled Term Loan A amortization payments, and has a final maturity date of January 31, 2029. The interest rate swap effectively results in a fixed rate of 4.606% plus the

applicable margin for the hedged debt, as described in Note 11. The reset dates and all other critical terms on the term loans perfectly match with the interest rate swap and accordingly there were no amounts excluded from the measurement of hedge effectiveness.

At June 30, 2026, the remaining notional value of the Company's interest rate swap totaled $175.0 million and the net fair value of the Company's interest rate swap contract was estimated to be an unrealized loss of $2.3 million, which is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) within Other current liabilities and Other liabilities (long-term) at $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Fair value adjustments are recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ('AOCI') in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) and balances in AOCI are reclassified into earnings when transactions related to the underlying risk are settled. The pre-tax balance of interest rate swap gain (loss) in AOCI for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $1.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively and $(1.1) million and $(2.9) million for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, $1.0 million of net interest rate swap losses recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months; however, the actual amount that will be reclassified will vary based on changes in interest rates.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Management has established certain requirements that customers must meet before credit is extended. The financial condition of customers is continually monitored and collateral is usually not required. The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. The Company reviews historical trends for credit loss as well as current economic conditions in determining an estimate for its allowance for credit losses. Additionally, in circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific allowance for credit losses is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount the Company reasonably expects will be collected.

The changes in the allowance for credit losses included within Trade accounts receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:
