CT. &ndash; October 19, 2018 &ndash; Acme United Corporation (NYSE American: ACU) today announced that net sales for the three
months ended September 30, 2018 were $34.7 million, compared to $33.8 million in the same period of 2017, an increase of 3%. Net

income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $807,000, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $1,202,000, or $0.32
per diluted share, for the same period in 2017, decreases of 33% <FONT STYLE="line-height: 150%">and 28%, respectively</FONT>.
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $4.0 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, compared to $4.7 million,
or $1.25 per diluted share, for last year&rsquo;s same period, decreases of 15% and <FONT STYLE="line-height: 150%">10%, respectively</FONT>.
The declines in net income for the three and nine month periods resulted primarily from additions in sales and marketing personnel
to support growth initiatives as well as higher interest rates on our variable rate credit facility.</FONT></P>

C. Johnsen, Chairman and CEO said, &ldquo;Our sales continued to grow in the third quarter, reflecting the success of our Westcott
back-to-school scissors, Camillus knives, and first aid products. Our year-to-year gross margins were comparable. However, higher
selling, general and administrative expenses were in place to drive sales at levels we did not achieve.</FONT></P>

Johnsen added that the Company is updating its guidance for the year, based on the current sales performance. The new guidance
is $139 million in revenues, $4.7 million in net income, and $1.30 earnings per diluted share. This compares to sales of $130.6
million, non-GAAP net income of $5.3 million and earnings per diluted share of $1.42 for 2017. As previously reported, the Company&rsquo;s
GAAP net income of $4.1 million for 2017 reflected a $1.2 million non-cash tax charge related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.</FONT></P>

of first aid and safety products were $15 million, an increase of 7%. Sales of Westcott school and office products declined 6%,
despite a strong back-to-school. Office product sales were impacted by overstock of office scissors at a large on-line retailer
and store closings. Net sales for the first nine months of 2018 in the U.S. segment increased 6% compared to the same period in
2017. Sales of first aid and safety products increased 12% due to market share gains.</FONT></P>
