Management Commentary

"The third quarter of fiscal 2025 was highlighted by strong sales revenue, driven by a significant 61% sequential and 245% year-over-year increase in Fire Services and continued global growth in our key industrial products," said Jim Jenkins, President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman. "Third quarter results met our expectations as our organic and inorganic Fire Services growth was supported by a rebound in U.S. sales and ongoing Latin American, European, and Asian momentum during the quarter. Expanding opportunities in Latin America, new sales leadership in Asia and an expected large Fire Services shipment from Eagle contributed to our results.

"Both Jolly and Eagle had substantial fire orders delayed from the second quarter to the late third and early fourth quarter, which began shipping and further contributed to the quarter. Sales from our recent acquisition, LHD, which we acquired on July 1, have resumed, and we are accelerating production in anticipation of delivering on a multi-year backorder in the fourth quarter. Revenues for LHD, Jolly, and Pacific Helmets were a combined $11.8 million, and we expect those to accelerate as we deliver on open orders and cross-selling opportunities.

"We continued the transition of large North American channel partner accounts to LineDrive, our new industrial market representative, and those orders rebounded in the third quarter, as expected. LineDrive continues to build pipeline opportunities, and we believe these sales will continue to accelerate.

"With our premium Fire Services offering available around the world and selling within the three largest global markets for firefighter turnout gear, North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific, our growing brand recognition and global head-to-toe fire portfolio with the superior lead times has enabled Lakeland to grow revenue 245% year-over-year.

"Taken together, we remain confident in our full-year projections and with expanding market opportunities in the growing and fragmented global fire market, as well as in industrial safety products. Looking ahead, we expect continued acceleration of global Fire Services business through organic growth and strategic acquisitions, and increased momentum in our industrial safety products," concluded Mr. Jenkins.

Fiscal 2025 Third Quarter Financial Results

Net sales were $45.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $14.1 million or 44.5% compared to $31.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Sales of the Fire Services product line increased $13.7 million year-over-year due to $11.4 million in sales from LHD, acquired in July 2024, Jolly, acquired in February 2024 and Pacific, acquired in November 2023, and continued growth in Lakeland's U.S. Fire Services line. The significant increase in Fire Services was complemented by an increase in industrial sales of $0.3 million as we continue to ramp up our LineDrive relationship and pursue opportunities around the world.

On a consolidated basis, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, domestic sales were $15.4 million or 34% of total revenues, and international sales were $30.4 million or 66% of total revenues, as our recent acquisitions continue to skew growth internationally. This compares with domestic sales of $15.1 million or 48% of the total and international sales of $16.6 million or 52% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the company saw year-over-year sales growth in North America, Latin America, Asia and Europe.

Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $18.6 million, an increase of $5.2 million, or 38.9%, compared to $13.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 40.6% for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 from 42.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Gross margin percentage declined in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 due to lower margins from LHD and Jolly, driven partially by amortization of the step up in basis of acquired inventory and higher inbound freight expense in anticipation of fourth-quarter sales. Organic gross margin percentage increased to 44.2% from 42.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

3

Operating expenses increased by $8.0 million, or 82.3%, from $9.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 to $17.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Operating expenses increased due to inorganic growth, acquisition expenses, non-recurring expenses, and increased organic SG&A operating expenses, primarily compensation and professional fees. Operating profit was $0.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to an operating profit of $3.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, due to the abovementioned impacts. Operating margins were 1.8% for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, as compared to 11.4% for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Net income was $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.34 per diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 was $4.7 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 4.9%, compared with $4.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. The increase was driven by higher revenue, including contributions from Jolly and LHD, and margin improvements in our organic sales mix, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Cash and cash equivalents were $15.8 million on October 31, 2024, and working capital was approximately $95.7 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $9.4 million, and working capital increased by $12.5 million from January 31, 2024 due to the build of inventory to deliver on the LHD backlog and Q4 sales orders at Jolly, as well as ramping industrial orders.

Net cash used in operating activities was $12.5 million in the nine months ended October 31, 2024, compared to net cash provided of $3.7 million in the nine months ended October 31, 2023. The increase was driven by increases in working capital, primarily due to inventory buildup in preparation for forecasted increases in sales in the fourth quarter of the year and the first quarter of fiscal 2026. As we collect on these sales, we expect this cash to be recovered in the first half of fiscal 2026.

The Company's quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share was paid on November 22, 2024, to stockholders of record as of November 15, 2024.

Roger Shannon, Lakeland's Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our recent Fire Services acquisitions supported Lakeland's continued revenue growth during the fiscal third quarter. Revenue grew $14.1 million, or 44.5%, compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, and our trailing twelve months revenue now totals $151.8 million. Organic revenue increased 7.3%, totaling $34.0 million for the fiscal third quarter, due to strong shipments from our U.S. and Eagle Fire Services business and a continued focus on industrial revenue growth worldwide.

"Our third quarter consolidated gross margin decreased by 1.6 margin points versus Q3 of last year to 40.6% due to lower margin from LHD and Jolly driven partially by amortization of the step up in basis of acquired inventory and in-bound freight expense related to inventory expected to be sold in Q4 and the first half of fiscal 2026. Meanwhile, organic gross margin saw a strong improvement of 2.0 margin points year-over-year to 44.2% due to continued pricing strength in the U.S. and LATAM markets.

4

"Operating expenses increased to $17.8 million for the quarter, of which $2.9 million was attributable to the acquisition of LHD, Jolly and Pacific, and $3.5 million was due to acquisition, non-cash and non-recurring expenses, and FX. For the quarter, the Company had a Net Income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share.

"With respect to cash usage, although elevated during the quarter, this suggests strong demand from our customers as the increase was driven by increases in working capital of $12.5 million, primarily due to a build in inventory in preparation for the forecasted increase in sales in the fourth quarter of the year and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, and which we expect to recover in the first half of fiscal 2026.

"Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX was $4.7 million, though our profit in ending inventory reserve did not change materially during the quarter. The result was ahead of our internal forecast from operations before any ending inventory profit release. In the prior quarter, we had a 3.4 margin points impact from "profit in ending inventory" related to the build of stock for sales in the second half of the year. While our $3 million profit in ending inventory reserve did not change materially in the third quarter, we expect to release a significant portion of the reserve in the fourth quarter, which should enhance margins and profitability.

"Given the totality of our positive results, trends and expectations, we continue to expect fiscal year revenue of at least $165 million and Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX of at least $18 million, both inclusive of the LHD, Jolly Scarpe and Pacific Helmets acquisitions. We also look forward to sharing more on our story next week at the 13th Annual ROTH Deer Valley Event and Benchmark Company 13th Annual Discovery One-on-One Investor Conference" concluded Shannon.

FY 2025 Reaffirmed Guidance and Outlook

This reaffirmed guidance is based on our current backlog of orders and current expectations. These metrics constitute forward-looking statements and are based on current expectations. For a discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these metrics, see "Safe Harbor' Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995" below.

Revenue - We continue to expect FY25 Revenue of at least $165 million. This Revenue expectation includes the recently announced LHD, Jolly Scarpe and Pacific Helmets acquisitions.

Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX - We continue to expect FY25 Adjusted EBITDA, excluding any material negative impact from foreign exchange, to be at least $18 million.(1) This Adjusted EBITDA expectation includes the recently announced LHD, Jolly Scarpe and Pacific Helmets acquisitions.

(1) Excluding revenue, the Company does not provide guidance on a GAAP basis as certain items that impact Adjusted EBITDA, such as equity compensation, foreign exchange gains or losses, acquisition expenses and employee separation expenses, which may be significant, are outside the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Please see the "Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Non-GAAP Results" and the related footnotes at the end of this press release for detailed information on calculating non-GAAP measures. See the non-GAAP financial reconciliation tables in this release for a reconciliation of other non-GAAP financial measures.

The financial data above includes non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA Margin. Management excludes from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA all expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and Other Income, which is comprised of interest income and gains (losses) from equity method investments. For adjusted EBITDA management also excludes equity compensation, acquisition-related expenses, severance and restructuring costs, and start-up costs for our Mexican operations. This press release also discusses (i) Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by GAAP net sales; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX, which is calculated by subtracting foreign currency losses from Adjusted EBITDA and (iii) Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX by GAAP net sales.

Management excludes these items principally because such charges or benefits are not directly related to the Company's ongoing core business operations. We use such non-GAAP measures in order to (1) make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company's operations, both internally and externally, (2) guide management in assessing the performance of the business, internally allocating resources and making decisions in furtherance of the Company's strategic plan, and (3) provide investors with a better understanding of how management plans and measures the business. The material limitations to management's approach include the fact that the charges, benefits and expenses excluded are nonetheless charges, benefits and expenses required to be recognized under GAAP and, in some cases, consume cash which reduces the Company's liquidity. Management compensates for these limitations primarily by reviewing GAAP results to obtain a complete picture of the Company's performance and by including a reconciliation of non-GAAP results to GAAP results in its earnings releases. Non-GAAP financial measures are not alternatives for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures presented by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Additional information regarding the adjustments is provided below.

(1) Adjustments for Taxes, which consist of the tax effects of the various adjustments that we exclude from our non-GAAP measures, and adjustments related to deferred tax and discrete tax items. Including these adjustments permits more accurate comparisons of the Company's core results with those of its competitors.

(2) Adjustments for Equity Compensation, which consist of non-cash expenses for the grant of equity awards.

(3) Adjustments for Other Income, which consists of interest income and gains/(losses) from Investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

(4) Adjustments for acquisition-related expenses included advisory fees, due diligence expenses and legal fees related to the Company's acquisitions of Eagle Technical Products Limited in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, Pacific Helmets NZ Limited in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, Jolly Scarpe S.p.A. and Jolly Scarpe Romania S.R.L in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 and LHD Group Deutschland GmbH (LHD) and its Hong Kong and Australian subsidiaries in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025.

(5) Adjustment for the reduction of the estimated earnout payment related to the Eagle and Pacific Helmets acquisitions.

(6) Adjustments for accrued employee severance and restructuring costs.

(7) Adjustments for costs for our Mexican operations consist of external services and legal fees associated with a property-related dispute with the landlord of our manufacturing site in Monterrey, Mexico.

(8) Adjustment for PFAS Litigation.
