Introduction

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements. When used in this Form 10-Q or in any other presentation, statements which are not historical in nature, including the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “project” and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. They also include statements containing a projection of sales, earnings or losses, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial terms.

The forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q are based upon our management’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future operations and economic performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are not statements of fact. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, some of which are not currently known to us that may cause our actual results, performance or financial condition to be materially different from the expectations of future results, performance or financial condition we express or imply in any forward-looking statements. Some of the important factors that could cause our actual results, performance or financial condition to differ materially from expectations are:

| · | in our two most recently ended fiscal quarters, we incurred losses before taxes from continuing operations and there is no assurance that we will return to profitability;

| · | the risk that we will not generate sufficient additional sales to justify our expansion of activities from the net proceeds of the October 2014 private placement;

| · | our ability to obtain additional funds, if necessary;

| · | we are subject to risk as a result of our international manufacturing operations;

| · | our results of operations could be negatively affected by potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;

| · | we deal in countries where corruption is an obstacle;

| · | we have experienced material weaknesses in internal controls in the past and although we believe such weaknesses have been remediated, there can be no assurance that such weaknesses will not occur in the future;

| · | there is no assurance that our disposition of our Brazilian subsidiary will be entirely successful in that we may continue to be exposed to certain liabilities in connection with the operations of such company. In addition, while the Company’s tax advisors believe that the worthless stock deduction taken by the Company in connection therewith is valid, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge it and, if challenged, that the Company will prevail.

| · | rapid technological change could negatively affect sales of our products, inventory levels and our performance;

| · | we must estimate customer demand because we do not have long-term commitments from many of our customers, and errors in our estimates could negatively impact our inventory levels and net sales;

| · | our operations are substantially dependent upon key personnel;

| · | we rely on a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers for specific fabrics, and we may not be able to obtain substitute suppliers and manufacturers on terms that are as favorable, or at all, if our supplies are interrupted;

| · | our inability to protect our intellectual property;

| · | we face competition from other companies, a number of which have substantially greater resources than we do;

| · | some of our sales are to foreign buyers, which exposes us to additional risks;

| · | a significant reduction in government funding for preparations for terrorist incidents could adversely affect our net sales;

| 3 |

| · | we may be subject to product liability claims, and insurance coverage could be inadequate or unavailable to cover these claims;

| · | our directors and executive officers have the ability to exert significant influence on us and on matters subject to a vote of our stockholders;

| · | our failure to realize anticipated benefits from acquisitions, divestitures or restructurings, or the possibility that such acquisitions, divestitures or restructurings could adversely affect us;

| · | our ability to make payments on our indebtedness and comply with the restrictive covenants therein;

| · | covenants in our credit facilities may restrict our financial and operating flexibility;

| · | the other factors referenced in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, in the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the factors described under “Risk Factors” disclosed in our fiscal 2016 Form 10-K.

We believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Furthermore, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this Form 10-Q might not occur. We qualify any and all of our forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary factors.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

| 1. | Business

Lakeland Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“Lakeland” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation organized in April 1986, manufactures and sells a comprehensive line of safety garments and accessories for the industrial protective clothing market. The principal market for the Company’s products is in the United States. No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales during the three month periods ending April 30, 2016 and 2015. In April 2015, the Company decided to exit operations in Brazil. See Note 17 for further description.

| 2. | Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial information required herein. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. While we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with US GAAP.

The results of operations for the three month period ended April 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

In this Form 10-Q, (a) “FY” means fiscal year; thus, for example, FY17 refers to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2017, (b) “Q” refers to quarter; thus, for example, Q1 FY17 refers to the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2017, (c) “Balance Sheet” refers to the condensed consolidated balance sheet and (d) “Statement of Operations" refers to the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

| 3. | Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

| 4. | Inventories

Inventories of continuing operations consist of the following (in $000s):

|  | April 30, 2016 |  |  | January 31, 2016 |
Raw materials |  | $ | 14,694 |  |  | $ | 15,435 |
Work-in-process |  |  | 1,276 |  |  |  | 784 |
Finished goods |  |  | 22,921 |  |  |  | 24,622 |
|  | $ | 38,891 |  |  | $ | 40,841 |

Inventories include freight-in, materials, labor and overhead costs and are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Provision is made for slow-moving, obsolete or unusable inventory.

| 10 |

| 5. | Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents. The diluted earnings per share calculation takes into account the shares that may be issued upon exercise of stock options, reduced by shares that may be repurchased with the funds received from the exercise, based on the average price during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for “income from continuing operations” at April 30, 2016 and 2015, as follows:

Revolving Credit Facility

On June 28, 2013, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lakeland Protective Wear Inc. (collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Senior Loan Agreement”) with AloStar Business Credit, a division of AloStar Bank of Commerce (the “Senior Lender”). The Senior Loan Agreement provides the Borrowers with a three-year $15 million revolving line of credit, at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR, with a first priority lien on substantially all of the United States and Canada assets of the Company, except for the Canadian warehouse.

On March 31, 2015, the Borrowers entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with the Senior Lender (the “Amendment”) relating to their senior revolving credit facility. Pursuant to the Amendment, the parties agreed to (i) reduce the rate of interest on the revolving loans by 200 basis points and correspondingly lower the minimum interest rate floor from 6.25% to 4.25% per annum, and (ii) extend the maturity date of the credit facility to June 28, 2017.

| 11 |

On June 3, 2015, the Borrowers entered into a Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Senior Loan Agreement. The primary purposes of the Second Amendment are to (i) modify the definition of Permitted Asset Disposition to provide the Company with the ability to transfer the stock of the Company’s then wholly-owned Brazilian subsidiary, Lake Brasil Indústria e Comércio de Roupas e Equipamentos de Proteção Individual Ltda. (“Lakeland Brazil”), and (ii) allow the Borrowers to transfer funds to Lakeland Brazil for the specific purposes of settling arbitration claims, paying contractual expenses, and paying expenses incurred in connection with a transfer of the stock of Lakeland Brazil so long as, after giving effect to any such transfer, the amount Borrowers have as excess availability under the revolver loans, excluding the $15 million facility cap for this purpose only, calculated pursuant to and under the Senior Loan Agreement, is at least $3.0 million. Also, as part of the Second Amendment, Lender consented to the sale of the Company’s corporate offices in Ronkonkoma, New York on the condition that the net cash proceeds from the sale in the amount of at least $450,000 are used by the Company to pay down the Borrower’s obligations to Lender under the Senior Loan Agreement.

On October 29, 2014, with the proceeds from a private placement of 1,110,000 shares of its common stock, the Company repaid in full subordinated debt issued in June 2013, together with a warrant to purchase common stock of the Company. The early extinguishment of the subordinated debt resulted in a one-time pretax non-cash charge of approximately $1.6 million for the remaining unamortized original issue discount on the subordinated debt and a pretax non-cash charge of approximately $0.6 million for the remaining unamortized fees paid at the closing of the subordinated debt financing. These charges were included in the Company’s financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2014 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015. The $0.6 million of unamortized fees attributable to the Senior Debt will remain on the Company’s books and continue to be amortized over the remaining term of the Senior Debt through June 2017 as amended.

| 8. | Employee Stock Compensation

The 2012 and 2015 Plans

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on July 8, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the Lakeland Industries, Inc. 2015 Stock Plan (the “2015 Plan”). The executive officers and all other employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan is currently administered by the compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Committee”), except that with respect to all non-employee director awards, the Committee shall be deemed to include the full Board. The 2015 Plan authorizes the issuance of awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and other stock-based awards. The 2015 Plan also permits the grant of awards that qualify for “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued under the 2015 Plan may not exceed 100,000 shares. Awards covering no more than 20,000 shares of common stock may be awarded to any plan participant in any one calendar year. Under the 2015 Plan, as of April 30, 2016, the Company granted awards for up to an aggregate of 99,429 restricted shares assuming maximum award levels are achieved.

The 2015 Plan, which terminates in July 2017, is the successor to the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The Company’s 2012 Plan authorized the issuance of up to a maximum of 310,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to employees and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries in the form of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and other share-based awards. Under the 2012 Plan, as of April 30, 2016, the Company issued 287,490 fully vested shares of common stock and 8,897 restricted shares which will continue to vest according to the terms of the 2012 Plan.

Under the 2012 Plan and the 2015 Plan, the Company generally awards eligible employees and directors with either performance-based or time-based restricted shares. Performance-based restricted shares are awarded at either baseline (target), maximum or zero amounts. The number of restricted shares subject to any award is not tied to a formula or comparable company target ranges, but rather is determined at the discretion of the Committee at the end of the applicable performance period, which is two years under the 2015 Plan and had been three years under the 2012 Plan. The Company recognizes expense related to performance-based restricted share awards over the requisite performance period using the straight-line attribution method based on the most probable outcome (baseline, maximum or zero) at the end of the performance period and the price of the Company’s common stock price at the date of grant.

In addition to the performance-based awards, the Company also grants time-based vesting awards which vest either two or three years after date of issuance, subject to continuous employment and certain other conditions.

As of April 30, 2016, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to share-based stock awards totaled $8,507 pursuant to the 2012 Plan and $633,241 pursuant to the 2015 Plan, before income taxes, based on the maximum performance award level. Such unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards totaled $8,507 for the 2012 Plan and $335,682 for the 2015 Plan at the baseline performance level. The cost of these non-vested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of three years for the 2012 Plan and two years for the 2015 Plan. The performance based awards are not considered stock equivalents for earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation purposes.

The Company recognized total stock-based compensation costs of $130,443 and $127,652 for the three months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, of which $3,795 and $127,652 result from the 2012 Plan, and $126,648 and $0 result from the 2015 Plan. These amounts are reflected in operating expenses. The total income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation arrangements was $46,960 and $45,955 for the three- months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Other Compensation Plans/Programs

The Company previously awarded stock-based options to non-employee directors under its Non-employee Directors’ Option Plan (the “Directors’ Plan”) which expired on December 31, 2012. All stock option awards granted under the Directors’ Plan were fully vested at April 30, 2016. During the three-months ending April 30, 2016 there have been zero forfeitures or options exercised, and there were options outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 5,000 shares at a weighted-average exercise price of $8.28 per share. All outstanding stock options have a weighted average remaining contractual term of 0.82 years.

The Company currently utilizes a matching award program pursuant to which all employees are entitled to receive one share of restricted stock for each two shares of the Company’s common stock purchased on the open market. Such restricted shares are subject to a one year vesting period. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and is amortized to expense over the vesting period, which approximates the performance period.

Pursuant to the Company’s bonus-in-stock program, all employees are eligible to elect to receive any cash bonus in shares of restricted stock. Such restricted shares are subject to a two year vesting period. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and is amortized to expense over the two year period, which approximates the performance period. Since the employee is giving up cash for unvested shares, the amount of shares awarded is 133% of the cash amount based on the stock price at the date of grant.

Pursuant to the Company’s director restrictive stock program, all directors are eligible to elect to receive any director fees in shares of restricted stock. Such restricted shares are subject to a two year vesting period. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and is amortized to expense over the two year period, which approximates the performance period. Since the director is giving up cash for unvested shares, the amount of shares awarded is 133% of the cash amount based on the grant date stock price.

| 10. | Income Taxes

Income Tax Audits/Change in Accounting Estimate

The Company is subject to US federal income tax, as well as income tax in multiple US state and local jurisdictions and a number of foreign jurisdictions. The Company has received a final “No Change Letter” from the IRS for FY07 dated August 20, 2009. The Company has not had any recent US corporate income tax returns examined by the IRS. Returns for the year since 2011 are still open based on statutes of limitation only.

Chinese tax authorities have performed limited reviews on all Chinese subsidiaries as of tax years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 with no significant issues noted and we believe our tax positions are reasonably stated as of April 30, 2016. Weifang Meiyang Products Co., Ltd., (“Meiyang”), one of our Chinese operations, was changed to a trading company from a manufacturing company in Q1 FY16 and all direct workers and machines were transferred from Meiyang to Weifang Lakeland Safety Products Co., Ltd., (“WF”), another of our Chinese operation thereby reducing our tax exposure. Management believes there is no material risk in our China tax position.

Lakeland Protective Wear, Inc., our Canadian subsidiary, follows Canada tax regulatory framework recording its tax expense and tax deferred assets or liabilities. As of this statement filing date, we believe the Lakeland Protective Wear, Inc.’s tax situation is reasonably stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and we do not anticipate future tax liability.

In connection with the exit from Brazil as described in Note 17, the Company claimed a worthless stock deduction which generated a tax benefit of approximately US $9.5 million, net of a US $2.9 million valuation allowance. While the Company and its tax advisors believe that this deduction is valid, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge it and, if challenged, there is no assurance that the Company will prevail.

Except in Canada, it is our practice and intention to reinvest the earnings of our non-US subsidiaries in their operations. As of April 30, 2016, the Company had not made a provision for US or additional foreign withholding taxes on approximately $22.8 million of the excess of the amount for financial reporting over the tax basis of investments in foreign subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration ($21.6 million at January 31, 2015). Generally, such amounts become subject to US taxation upon remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. If theses earnings were repatriated to the US, the deferred tax liability associated with these temporary differences would be approximately $3.2 million at April 30, 2016.

The Company’s Board of Directors has instituted a plan to pay annual dividends of $1.0 million to the Company from Weifang’s future profits, 33% of Meiyang’s future profits and 50% of the UK’s future profits starting in FY15. All other retained earnings are expected to be reinvested indefinitely.

Change in Accounting Estimate/Valuation Allowance

We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we considered all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. The valuation allowance was $2.2 million at April 30, 2016 and January 31, 2016.

| 20 |

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expenses consist of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The income tax benefit was $0.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016, as compared to income tax expense of $0.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015.

| 11. | Derivative Instruments and Foreign Currency Exposure

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk. Management has commenced a derivative instrument program to partially offset this risk by purchasing forward contracts to sell the Canadian Dollar and the Euro other than the cash flow hedge discussed below. Such contracts are largely timed to expire with the last day of the fiscal quarter, with a new contract purchased on the first day of the following quarter, to match the operating cycle of the Company. We designated the forward contracts as derivatives but not as hedging instruments, with loss and gain recognized in current earnings.

The Company accounts for its foreign exchange derivative instruments by recognizing all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value, which may result in additional volatility in both current period earnings and other comprehensive income as a result of recording recognized and unrecognized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments.

We have two types of derivatives to manage the risk of foreign currency fluctuations.

We enter into forward contracts with financial institutions to manage our currency exposure related to net assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Those forward contract derivatives, not designated as hedging instruments, are generally settled quarterly. Gain and loss on those forward contracts are included in current earnings. There were no outstanding forward contracts at April 30, 2016 or 2015.

We enter cash flow hedge contracts with financial institutions to manage our currency exposure on future cash payments denominated in foreign currencies. The effective portion of gain or loss on cash flow hedge is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The notional amount of these contracts was $0 and $3.3 million at April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The corresponding asset and income recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of other comprehensive income is $0 and 115,482 at April 30, 2016 and in April 30, 2015 the amount is immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

| 12. | VAT Tax Issue in Brazil

Asserted Claims

VAT (i.e. Value Added Tax) tax in Brazil is at the state level. We commenced operations in Brazil in May 2008 through an acquisition of Qualytextil, S.A., which subsequently became Lake Brasil Indústria e Comércio de Roupas e Equipamentos de Proteção Individual Ltda., (referred to in this footnote as “Qualytextil” and sometimes referred to in this Form 10-Q as “Lakeland Brazil”) . At the time of the acquisition, and going back to 2004, the acquired company used a port facility in a neighboring state (Recife-Pernambuco), rather than its own, in order to take advantage of incentives, in the form of a discounted VAT tax, to use such neighboring port facility. We continued this practice until April 2009. The practice was stopped largely for economic reasons, resulting from additional trucking costs and longer lead time. The Bahia state auditors (state of domicile for the Lakeland operations in Brazil) initially reviewed the period from 2004-2006 and filed a claim for unpaid VAT taxes in October 2009. The claim asserted that the state VAT taxes are owed to the state of domicile of the ultimate importer/user and disregarded the fact that the VAT taxes had already been paid to the neighboring state.

The audit notice claimed that the taxes paid to Recife-Pernambuco should have been paid to Bahia in the amount of R$4.8 million and assessed fines and interest of an additional R$5.6 million for a total of R$10.4 million (approximately US$3.0 million, $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively based on exchange rates at the time of the claim).

Bahia had announced an amnesty for this tax whereby R$3.5 million (US$1.9 million) of the taxes claimed were paid by Qualytextil by the end of the month of May 2010, and the interest and penalties related thereto were forgiven. According to fiscal regulation of Brazil, R$2.1 million (US$1.1 million) of this amnesty payment has since been recouped as credits against future taxes due.

| 21 |

An audit for the 2007-2009 period has been completed by the State of Bahia. In October 2010, the Company received five claims for 2007-2009 from the State of Bahia, the largest of which was for taxes of R$6.2 (US$2.3) million and fines and interest currently at R$8.3 million (US$3.1 million), for a total of R$14.6 (US$5.5) million. The Company had intended to defend itself through a regulatory process and wait for the next amnesty period. Of other claims, our attorney informed us that three claims totaling R$1.3 (US$0.5) million in respect of fines and penalties were likely to be successfully defended based on state auditor misunderstanding.

As more fully described in Note 17, Lakeland and Qualytextil entered into a Shares Transfer Agreement pursuant to which, effective July 31, 2015, Zap Comércio de Brindes Corporativos Ltda (“Transferee”), a company owned by an existing Qualytextil manager, acquired all of the shares of Qualytextil and assumed liabilities of Qualytextil, including VAT tax liabilities.

VAT Tax Amnesty and Loan Agreement with Transferee of Brazil Operations

The Bahia State Tax Department has commenced an audit of VAT taxes for the period from 2011-2014 in October 2015. The State of Bahia declared an amnesty beginning November 1, 2015 and expiring December 18, 2015. The Company had entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) on December 11, 2015 with Qualytextil for the amount of R$8,584,012 (approximately USD $2.29 million) for the purpose of providing funds necessary for Qualytextil to settle the two largest outstanding VAT claims with the State of Bahia. As described under “Shares Transfer Agreement” in Note 17, the Company may be exposed to certain liabilities arising in connection with the prior operations of Qualytextil, including, without limitation, from lawsuits pending in the labor courts in Brazil and VAT taxes. Settlement of the VAT claims under amnesty would benefit the Company in that it eliminates these large VAT claims, which the Company believes will render the continued viability of Qualytextil immaterial to the Company. It should also eliminate the possibility of the transfer of shares of Qualytextil being found fraudulent on the basis of evading VAT claims and would subsequently eliminate the possibility of future encumbrance of the real estate by the state of Bahia subsequent to VAT claims. Qualytextil completed the amnesty agreement with the State of Bahia on December 18, 2015. USD $250,000 in continuing business incentives provided by Lakeland to Qualytextil in the Shares Transfer Agreement will be waived by Qualytextil as partial payment of the debt.

Repayment of the loan by Qualytextil to the Company will include the following elements

R$ 3,395,947 (approximately USD $900,000) in VAT credits will become available to Qualytextil from the State of Bahia to be used against future VAT payments. Qualytextil has agreed to pay amounts equal to this credit to the Company in accordance with monthly sales volume. Qualytextil will transfer the rights to a judicial deposit on a tax claim to the Company. There is a judicial deposit of R$ 3,012,326 (approximately USD $800,000), however, Qualytextil will continue to make monthly deposits to the judicial account until the case is ruled upon by the Supreme Court of Brazil or the deposit is fully funded. Attorney’s success fee will be deducted before any disbursements to the Company or Qualytextil. However, while the lawyer handling this case tells us it is probable Qualytextil will win this case, it may take years to resolve. Credits of R$ 1,025,739 (approximately USD $275,000) relating to the above case may be generated if and when the case is resolved. Qualytextil has agreed to pay amounts equal to this credit to the Company in accordance with monthly sales volume. A minimum quarterly payment of R$ 300,000 (approximately USD $80,000) will be required commencing October 2016. The Company has determined that a reserve against the collection of this loan in full is prudent; which resulted in an additional charge to the loss on disposal of discontinued operations of $2,286,022 in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, net of tax benefits of $834,398. Such additional losses will be available as additional tax loss carryforwards to offset cash taxes payable against future taxable income in the USA.

Balance Sheet Treatment in Brazil after Discontinued Operations

The Company has reflected the above items on its April 30, 2016, balance sheet as follows:

|  |  |  | R$ millions |  |  | US$ millions |
Liabilities of discontinued operations |  | Taxes payable |  |  | 6.2 |  |  |  | 2.1 |

| 13. | Goodwill

There was no impairment of goodwill during Q1 fiscal year 2017.

| 14. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management has determined that recent accounting developments are either not applicable or have a minimal impact on the consolidated financial statements. Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles used to recognize revenue for all entities. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual periods after December 31, 2016. This guidance permits the use of one of two retrospective transition methods. The Company has neither selected a transition method, nor determined the effects that the adoption of the pronouncement may have on its consolidated financial statements.

| 23 |

In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for an entity in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

| 15. | Subsequent Events

The Company does not have any subsequent events to report.

| 16. | Litigation

The Company is involved in various litigation proceedings arising during the normal course of business which, in the opinion of the management of the Company, will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations or cash flows; however, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these matters.

| 17. | Brazil Transaction

On March 9, 2015, Lakeland Brazil changed its legal form to a Limitada and changed its name to Lake Brasil Industria E Comercio de Roupas E Equipamentos de Protecao Individual LTDA.

Settlement Agreement – Arbitration Debt

On June 18, 2015, Lakeland and its then wholly-owned subsidiary Lakeland Brazil (together with Lakeland, the “Brazil Co”), entered into an Amendment (the “Amendment”) to a Settlement Agreement, dated as of September 11, 2012 (the “Settlement Agreement”), with two former officers (the “former officers”) of Lakeland Brazil. As part of the original Settlement Agreement, the parties resolved all alleged outstanding claims against the Brazil Co arising from an arbitration proceeding in Brazil involving Brazil Co and the former officers of Brazil Co for an aggregate amount of approximately US $8.5 million payable by Brazil Co to the former officers over a period of six (6) years. As of the June 18, 2015 settlement date, there was a balance of US $3.750 million (the “Outstanding Amount”) owed under the Settlement Agreement, which Outstanding Amount was to be paid by the Company in quarterly installments of US $250,000 through December 31, 2018.

Pursuant to the Amendment, the former officers agreed to fully and finally settle the Outstanding Amount owed by the Company for an aggregate lump sum payment of US $3.413 million, resulting in a gain of US $224,000 after allowing for imputed interest on the original Settlement Agreement. Within five days of receipt of such payment, the former officers provided to Lakeland Brazil the documents needed to have their lien securing payment of the Outstanding Amount removed on certain real estate owned by Lakeland Brazil and such lien was removed. The Amendment also contains a general release of claims by the former officers in favor of the Company and its past or present officers, directors, and other affiliates. The Company’s senior lender, Alostar Bank of Commerce, has consented to the transactions contemplated by the Amendment.

| 24 |

Shares Transfer Agreement

On July 31, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), Lakeland and Lakeland Brazil, completed a conditional closing of a Shares Transfer Agreement (the “Shares Transfer Agreement”) with Zap Comércio de Brindes Corporativos Ltda (“Transferee”), a company owned by an existing Lakeland Brazil manager, entered into on June 19, 2015. Pursuant to the Shares Transfer Agreement, the Transferee has acquired all of the shares of Lakeland Brazil owned by the Company. Pursuant to the Shares Transfer Agreement, Transferee paid R$1.00 to the Company and assumed all liabilities and obligations of Lakeland Brazil, whether arising prior to, on or after the Closing Date, including, without limitation (i) liabilities, such as severance obligations, in respect of the current and former employees of Lakeland Brazil, (ii) liabilities arising from any labor claims already existing or which may thereafter be filed against Lakeland Brazil and its current or former affiliates, officers and shareholders, (iii) liabilities with respect to taxes imposed on the Brazilian business, including Value Added Tax (“VAT”) tax liabilities, (iv) liabilities arising under leases, contracts, licenses or governmental permits pursuant to which Lakeland Brazil is a party or otherwise bound, (v) product warranty liabilities, product return obligations pursuant to any stock balancing program and rebates pursuant to any marketing program, to the extent such liabilities arose from sales of products made in the course of the Brazilian business, (vi) accounts payable of Lakeland Brazil, whether or not invoiced, and (vii) all other obligations and liabilities with respect to the Brazilian business of Lakeland Brazil (collectively, the “Brazilian Liabilities”). In order to help enable Lakeland Brazil to have sufficient funds to continue to operate for a period of at least two years following the Closing Date, the Company provided funding to Lakeland Brazil in the aggregate amount of US $1,130,000, in cash, in the form of a capital raise, on or prior to the Closing Date, and has agreed to provide an additional R$582,000 (approximately US $188,000) (the “Additional Amount”), in the form of a capital raise, to be utilized by Lakeland Brazil to pay off the Brazilian Liabilities and other potential contingent liabilities. Pursuant to the Shares Transfer Agreement, the Company paid R$992,000 (approximately US $320,000) in cash, on July 1, 2015 and issued a non-interest bearing promissory note for the payment to be due for the Additional Amount (R$582,000) (approximately US $188,000) on the Closing Date which was paid to Lakeland Brazil in two (2) installments of (i) R$288,300 (approximately US $82,000) which was paid on August 1, 2015, and (ii) R$294,500 (approximately US $84,000) on September 1, 2015.

In addition, we may continue to be exposed to certain liabilities arising in connection with the prior operations of Lakeland Brazil, including, without limitation, from lawsuits pending in the labor courts in Brazil in which plaintiffs were seeking, as at July 31, 2015, a total of nearly US $8,000,000 in damages from our then Brazilian subsidiary. We believe many of these labor court claims are without merit and the amount of damages being sought is significantly higher than any damages which may have been incurred. Pursuant to the Shares Transfer Agreement, we are required to fully fund amounts owed by Lakeland Brazil in connection with the then existing labor claims by Lana dos Santos and to pay amounts potentially owed for future labor claims up to an aggregate amount of $375,000 plus 60% of the excess of such amount until the earlier of (i) the date all labor claims against Lakeland Brazil deriving from events prior to the sale are settled, (ii) by our mutual agreement with Lakeland Brazil or (iii) on the two (2) year anniversary of closing of the sale. As of April 30, 2016, the Lana dos Santos claim was settled for $272,000 and $79,000 was paid in respect of other labor claims. With respect to continuing claims, $278,000 is being sought, of which management estimates the aggregate liability will be less than that amount.

The Company believes that these amounts contributed to its now former subsidiary Lakeland Brazil will be more than offset by a benefit for USA taxes of approximately US $9.5 million generated by a worthless stock deduction for Brazil that the Company claimed on its corporate tax returns. Although the Company’s tax advisors believe that the worthless stock deduction is valid, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge it and, if challenged, that the Company will prevail.

The closing of this agreement was subject to Brazilian government approval of the shares transfer, which was received in October 2015 (The “Final Closing Date”). Even after the Final Closing Date for transactions contemplated by the Shares Transfer Agreement, the Company may be exposed to certain liabilities arising in connection with the prior operations of Lakeland Brazil, including, without limitation, from lawsuits pending in the labor courts in Brazil and VAT taxes, as more fully described in Note 12. The Company understands that under the laws of Brazil, a concept of fraudulent bankruptcy exists, which may hold a parent company liable for the liabilities of its Brazilian subsidiary in the event some level of fraud or misconduct is shown during the period that the parent company owned the subsidiary. While the Company believes that there has been no such fraud or misconduct relating to the proposed transfer of stock of Lakeland Brazil and the transactions contemplated by the Shares Transfer Agreement, as evidenced by the Company’s funding support for continuing operations of Lakeland Brazil, there can be no assurance that the courts of Brazil will not make such a finding nonetheless. The risk of exposure to the Company continues to diminish as the Transferee continues to operate Lakeland Brazil, as the risk of a finding of fraudulent bankruptcy lessens and pre-sale liabilities are paid off. Should the Transferee operate Lakeland Brazil for a period of two years, the Company believes the risk of a finding of fraudulent bankruptcy is eliminated. The Company believes that the loan transaction with its former Brazilian subsidiary resulting in a substantial reduction of the VAT tax liability, as described in Note 12, significantly reduced such potential liability. In addition, as discussed above in this Note, the potential labor claims liability has substantially diminished. The Shares Transfer Agreement, which is governed by United States law, contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties for a transaction of this type. The Company and Transferee have agreed to indemnify each other from and against certain liabilities, subject to certain exceptions. Under the Shares Transfer Agreement, the Company will be subject to certain non-solicitation provisions for a period of two years following the Closing Date.

| 25 |

The Company estimated that the transactions involved with the completion of its exit from Brazil result in a loss of approximately $1.2 million (net of tax benefit of $0.7) reflected on its statement of operations and a decrease of approximately $0.5 million to stockholders equity as a result of recording the exit transactions. This included a reclassification of approximately $1.3 million from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss to the Statement of Operations and Retained Earnings which did not impact net stockholders equity. Further losses on the sale were reflected in Q4 FY16 as a result of the reserves against the loans related to the VAT taxes as described elsewhere in Note 12. Since this is a resolution of contingencies that arise from and that are directly related to the operations of the Brazil component prior to its disposal, it has been accounted for as discontinued operations.

The following tables summarize the results of the Brazil business included in the statements of operations for the years ended April 30, 2016 and April 30, 2015.

Overview

We manufacture and sell a comprehensive line of safety garments and accessories for the industrial and public protective clothing market. Our products are sold by our in-house customer service group, our regional sales managers and independent sales representatives to a network of over 1,200 North American safety and mill supply distributors. These distributors in turn supply end user industrial customers, such as integrated oil, chemical/petrochemical, utilities, automobile, steel, glass, construction, smelting, munition plants, janitorial, pharmaceutical, mortuaries and high technology electronics manufacturers, as well as scientific and medical laboratories. In addition, we supply federal, state and local governmental agencies and departments, such as fire and law enforcement, airport crash rescue units, the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security and the Centers for Disease Control. Internationally, sales are to a mixture of end users directly and to industrial distributors depending on the particular country market. Sales are made to more than 40 foreign countries but are primarily in China, European Economic Community (“EEC”), Canada, Chile, Argentina, Russia, Colombia, Mexico, Ecuador and Southeast Asia.

We have operated facilities in Mexico since 1995 and in China since 1996. Beginning in 1995, we moved the labor intensive sewing operation for our limited use/disposable protective clothing lines to these facilities. Our facilities and capabilities in China and Mexico allow access to a less expensive labor pool than is available in the United States of America and permit us to purchase certain raw materials at a lower cost than they are available domestically. As we have increasingly moved production of our products to our facilities in Mexico and China, we have seen improvements in the profit margins for these products. Our net sales from continuing operations attributable to customers outside the United States of America were $7.1 million and $11.98 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our audited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base estimates on our past experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, and we periodically evaluate these estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. The Company derives its sales primarily from its limited use/disposable protective clothing and secondarily from its sales of firefighting and heat protective apparel, high-end chemical protective suits, gloves and arm guards and reusable woven garments. Sales are recognized when goods are shipped, at which time title and the risk of loss pass to the customer. Payment terms are generally net 30 days for United States sales and net 90 days for international sales.

Inventories. Inventories include freight-in, materials, labor and overhead costs and are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Inventory is written down for slow-moving, obsolete or unusable inventory.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts:

| 27 |

Customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends and changes in customer payment terms. Past due balances over 90 days and other less creditworthy accounts are reviewed individually for collectability. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable.

Income Taxes and Valuation Allowances. We are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate as part of preparing our consolidated consolidated financial statements. This involves estimating the actual current tax in addition to assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatments for tax and financial accounting purposes. These differences, together with net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits, are recorded as deferred tax assets or liabilities on our balance sheet. A judgment must then be made of the likelihood that any deferred tax assets will be realized from future taxable income. A valuation allowance may be required to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In the event we determine that we may not be able to realize all or part of our deferred tax asset in the future, or that new estimates indicate that a previously recorded valuation allowance is no longer required, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset is charged or credited to net income in the period of such determination.

Uncertain Tax Positions. In the event the Company determines that it may not be able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets in the future, or that new estimates indicate that a previously recorded valuation allowance is no longer required, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset is charged or credited to income in the period of such determination. The Company recognizes tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” minimum recognition threshold.

Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill and indefinite lived, intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually; however, these tests may be performed more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangibles impairment is evaluated utilizing a two-step process as required by US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Factors that the Company considers important that could identify a potential impairment include: significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; significant changes in the overall business strategy; and significant negative industry or economic trends. The Company measures any potential impairment on a projected discounted cash flow method. Estimating future cash flows requires the Company’s management to make projections that can differ materially from actual results.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the total projected undiscounted cash flows from the asset are separately identifiable and are less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset.

Foreign Currency Risks. The functional currency for the United Kingdom is the Euro; the trading company in China, the RMB; the Canadian Real Estate, the Canadian dollar; and the Russian operation and SpecProtect, the Russian Ruble and Kazakhstan Tenge. All other operations have the US dollar as its functional currency.

Self-Insured Liabilities. We have a self-insurance program for certain employee health benefits. The cost of such benefits is recognized as expense based on claims filed in each reporting period and an estimate of claims incurred but not reported during such period. Our estimate of claims incurred but not reported is based upon historical trends. If more claims are made than were estimated or if the costs of actual claims increase beyond what was anticipated, reserves recorded may not be sufficient, and additional accruals may be required in future periods. We maintain separate insurance to cover the excess liability over set single claim amounts and aggregate annual claim amounts.

| 28 |

Loss Contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been or is probable of being incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

Significant Balance Sheet Fluctuation April 30, 2016, As Compared to January 31, 2016

Cash increased by $3.3 million as the Company built excess cash in its Chinese manufacturing subsidiary, rather than repaying debt, in anticipation of a planned dividend to the Company expected to be declared and paid later in FY17. Such increase was offset by a $3.1 million increase in accounts payable. Inventory of continuing operations net of reserves had a decrease of $2.0 million as the Company worked through existing stock of core product and responded to low volume in the quarter. Other assets increased $1.2 million primarily due to an increase in prepaid expenses associated with a large order in our Argentina subsidiary. Accrued compensation and benefits decreased $0.3 million due to the payment of performance bonuses and reversal of the accruals associated with FY16 and other accrued expenses decreased $0.4 million as a normal course of business as customs payments were made in China for domestic sales reducing the accrual.

Three Months ended April 30, 2016, As Compared to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2015

Net Sales. Net sales from continuing operations decreased to $20.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016 compared to $24.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015, a decrease of 18%. Overall sales volume was reduced in the quarter due to global softness in the industrial sector partially resulting from a continuing downturn in the oil and gas industry as well as currency volatility in Argentina, Kazakhstan, Canada, China and the U.K in which we conduct business. As a result of a stronger US dollar in relation to these other currencies, our foreign revenues are reported on a reduced basis. Sales in the USA decreased $1.0 million or 7% due primarily to the strong sales levels in the disposables and chemical divisions related to the Company’s response to the Ebola crisis in Q1 FY16 and a soft market in the industrial sector in Q1 FY17. USA sales of disposables decreased by $0.5 million, chemical sales decreased $0.6 million, wovens and fire protection sales combined were level while glove sales decreased $0.1 million and reflective sales increased $0.2 million. Sales in China and to the Asia Pacific Rim were down $2.9 million or 25% as intercompany demand decreased and that region experienced moderate currency headwinds. Canada sales increased by $0.4 million or 26% as that country experienced an unexpected oil and gas turnaround, wildfires and a concerted effort began for asbestos remediation – all requiring protective wear. UK sales decreased by $3.3 million or 58% mostly due to the Company’s Ebola sales in Q1 FY16 and continuing currency challenges. Russia, Kazakhstan and SpecProtect sales combined increased by $0.2 million or 73% as economic stability improved. Latin America sales decreased $0.5 million or 37% due to a depressed commodities market which curtails agriculture and mining production and due to the poor economic environment in Brazil. Numbers may not add due to rounding.

| 29 |

Gross Profit. Gross profit from continuing operations decreased $2.5 million, or 27%, to $6.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016, from $9.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 33.3% for the three months ended April 30, 2016, from 37.4% for the three months ended April 30, 2015. Major factors driving the changes in gross margins were:

| · | Disposables gross margins remained level at 34% in spite of low volume.

| · | Chemical gross margin decreased by 17 percentage points as compared to the same quarter in the previous year primarily due to the very high volume and high margins associated with the Company’s response to the Ebola crisis in Q1 FY16 and severance payments of $0.1 million associated with a reduction in force in the USA to move production to our more cost effective facilities in Mexico and China.

| · | Wovens gross margin decreased 11 percentage points as a result of a major slowdown in the oil and gas sector and an excess supply in the marketplace.

| · | Fire protection gross margin increased 10 percentage points due to product mix and included severance payments in excess of $0.1 million associated with a reduction in force in the USA to move production to our more cost effective facility in Mexico.

| · | Reflective gross margins decreased 12 percentage points as a result of product mix and volume and severance payments of $0.1 million associated with a reduction in force in the USA to move production to our Mexico and China facilities.

| · | UK gross margins decreased 11 percentage points as a result of weak sales volume and as compared to the same quarter in the previous year where the Company’s sales related to the Ebola crisis had very high margins.

| · | Chile’s gross margin increased 35 percentage points as a result of product mix and Argentina’s gross margin decreased 22 percentage points primarily as a result of very weak sales volume and due to the challenging economic environment where there is excess supply.

Operating Expense. Operating expenses of continuing operations increased from $6.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015 to $6.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was 32.4% for the three months ended April 30, 2016 up from 24.4% for the three months ended April 30, 2015. The main factors for the increase in operating expenses are a $0.2 million increase in payroll administration, a $0.3 million increase in professional fees, a $0.1 million increase in sales salaries and a $0.1 million increase in travel expense.

Operating Profit. Operating profit from continuing operations decreased to a profit of $0.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016, from $3.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015, mainly as a result of weak sales volume. Operating margins were 0.8% for the three months ended April 30, 2016, compared to 13.0% for the three months ended April 30, 2015.

Interest Expense. Interest expenses from continuing operations remained level at $0.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016 and for the three months ended April 30, 2015.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. Income tax benefits from continuing operations were $0.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016, as compared to an income tax expense of $0.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015.

Discontinued Operations. Loss from discontinued operations decreased from $0.9 million to $0.0 million this year.

Net Income. Net income from continuing operations decreased $1.2 million to $0.0 million for the three months ended April 30, 2016 from $2.2 million for the three month ended April 30, 2015. The results for the three months ended April 30, 2016 are primarily due to low sales volume.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. As of April 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $10.3 million and working capital of $44.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents increased $3.3 million by not repaying credit lines and working capital increased $0.8 million from January 31, 2016 primarily as the Company built excess cash in its Chinese subsidiary in anticipation of a planned dividend to the Company expected to be declared and paid later in FY17. International cash management is affected by local requirements and movements of cash across borders can be slowed down significantly.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $3.5 million for the three-months ended April 30, 2016 was primarily due to an increase in accounts payable of $3.0 million and a reduction in inventory of $2.4 million offset by an increase in other assets of $1.2 million primarily associated with a prepayment on a large order for our Argentina subsidiary and a decrease of $0.7 million to accrued expenses and other liabilities resulting from customs payments in China. Net cash used in financing activities was $0.2 million in the three-months ended April 30, 2016, due to a reduction in net borrowings under our credit agreement.

We currently have one senior credit facility: $15 million revolving credit facility which commenced June 28, 2013, of which we had $9.3 million of borrowings outstanding as of April 30, 2016, expiring on June 30, 2017, at a current per annum rate of 4.25%. Maximum availability in excess of amount outstanding at April 30, 2016 was $5.7 million. Our current credit facility requires, and any future credit facilities may also require, that we comply with specified financial covenants relating to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and others relating to fixed charge coverage ratio and limits on capital expenditures and investments in foreign subsidiaries. Our ability to satisfy these financial covenants can be affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot guarantee that we will meet the requirements of these covenants. These restrictive covenants could affect our financial and operational flexibility or impede our ability to operate or expand our business. Default under our credit facilities would allow the lenders to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable. Our lenders, including Development Bank of Canada (“BDC”), have a security interest in substantially all of our US and Canadian assets and pledges of 65% of the equity of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, other than Canada which is 100%. If our lenders declare amounts outstanding under any credit facility to be due, the lenders could proceed against our assets. Any event of default, therefore, could have a material adverse effect on our business. We believe that our current availability under our senior credit facility, coupled with our anticipated operating cash and cash management strategy, is sufficient to cover our liquidity needs for the next 12 months. On March 31, 2015 the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lakeland Protective Wear Inc., entered into a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with AloStar Bank of Commerce relating to our senior credit facility. Pursuant to the Amendment, the parties agreed to (i) reduce the rate of interest on the revolving loans by 200 basis points and correspondingly lower the minimum interest rate floor from 6.25% to 4.25% per annum, and (ii) extend the maturity date of the credit facility to June 28, 2017.

Since the equity raise and repayment of subordinated debt in October 2014, the prevailing interest expense has decreased substantially.

Capital Expenditures. Our capital expenditures in Q1 FY17 of $0.03 million principally relate to additions to equipment in China and manufacturing equipment, computer system and leasehold improvements in the USA. We anticipate FY17 capital expenditures to be approximately $1.0 million. There are no further specific plans for material capital expenditures in FY17.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Risk

While as a smaller reporting company, disclosure of market risk is not required, the Company is voluntarily including such disclosures.

We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our purchases and sales in other countries. To manage the volatility relating to foreign currency exchange rates, we seek to limit, to the extent possible, our non-US dollar denominated purchases and sales.

| 31 |

In connection with our operations in China, we purchase a significant amount of products from outside of the United States. However, our purchases in China are primarily made in Chinese RMB, the value of which had been largely pegged to the US dollar for the last decade. However, the Chinese RMB has been decoupled from the US Dollar and allowed to float by the Chinese government and, therefore, we have been exposed to additional foreign exchange rate risk on our Chinese raw material and component purchases.

Our primary risk from foreign currency exchange rate changes is presently related to non-US dollar denominated sales in Canada, Europe and in other South American countries. Our sales to customers in Canada are denominated in Canadian dollars and in Europe in Euros and British pounds. If the value of the US dollar increases relative to the Canadian dollar, the Pound or the Euro, then our net sales could decrease as our products would be more expensive to these international customers because of changes in rate of exchange. Our sales from China are denominated in the Chinese RMB, US dollar and Euros. We manage the foreign currency risk through the use of rolling 90-day forward contracts against the Canadian dollar and Euros and through longer term cash flow hedges in China against the Euro. We do not hedge other currencies at this time. As non-US dollar denominated international purchases and sales grow, exposure to volatility in exchange rates could have a material adverse impact on our financial results. The only significant unhedged foreign exchange exposure we have is the Argentine peso. Other unhedged currency exposure is not significant. If the Argentina exchange rate varied either way by +/- 10%, it would not be significant so long as prices could be raised to account for more expensive garments.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk with respect to our credit facilities, which have variable interest rates based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate. At April 30, 2016, we had $9.3 million in borrowings outstanding under our senior credit facility. If the interest rate applicable to this variable rate debt rose 1% in the year ended January 31, 2017, our interest expense would have increased only 0.25% due to the floor of 4.25%. If the effective interest rate rose 0.25 percentage point over 4.25%, it would increase interest expense by an insignificant amount.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of April 30, 2016. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 30, 2016.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes that occurred during Lakeland's first quarter of fiscal 2017 which materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
