EXPLANATORY NOTE



Schmitt Industries,
Inc. (“Schmitt Industries”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is filing this Amendment No. 1
(this “Amendment”) to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2020, originally filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 31, 2020 (the “Original Filing”), to include
information previously omitted in reliance on General Instruction G to Form 10-K, which provides that registrants may incorporate
by reference certain information from a definitive proxy statement prepared in connection with the election of directors. The Company
has determined to include such Part III information by amendment of the Original Filing rather than incorporation by reference
to the proxy statement. Accordingly, Part III of the Original Filing is hereby amended and restated as set forth below. We are
also filing as exhibits to this Amendment the certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and amending
Item 15 of Part IV to include such certifications. Because no financial statements are contained in this Amendment, we are not
including certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.



Except as described
above, this Amendment does not modify or update the disclosures presented in, or as exhibits to, the Original Filing in any way.
This Amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Filing and does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original
Filing. Among other things, we have not revised forward-looking statements made in the Original Filing to reflect events that occurred
or facts that became known to us after the filing of the Original Filing. Therefore, you should read this Amendment in conjunction
with any other documents we filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) subsequent to the Original Filing. Capitalized
terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Filing.

| | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management



The following table
presents information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of August 31, 2020, by:



| | • | each
person, or group of affiliated persons, known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock;
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | • | each of our directors and NEOs; and                                                                                       



| | • | all of our directors and executive officers as a group.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------



The amounts and percentages
of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial
ownership of securities. The information relating to our 5% beneficial owners is based on information we received from such holders.
Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares
voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of a security, or investment power, which includes the power
to dispose of or to direct the disposition of a security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of
which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed
a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person
has no economic interest. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 3,752,484 shares of Common Stock outstanding
as of August 31, 2020.

Audit Committee Policies and Procedures



The
Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. These services may include
audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services as allowed by law or regulation. Pre-approval is generally
provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally
subject to a specifically approved amount. The independent auditors and management are required to periodically report to the Audit
Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent auditors in accordance with this pre-approval and the fees
incurred to date. The Audit Committee, or one of its members to whom authority has been delegated by the Audit Committee, may also
pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. The Audit Committee, or one of its members to whom authority had
been delegated, pre-approved all of the Company’s audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees, and all other fees for services
by the independent auditors during Fiscal 2020 and Fiscal 2019.
