**Management Commentary**

"While our fourth quarter results reflect the continued impact of cost volatility and a challenging operating environment, we believe they do not fully reflect the actions taken during fiscal 2026 to simplify the business, reduce costs, and strengthen operating discipline across Lakeland" said Jim Jenkins, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Results during the quarter reflected inflationary cost pressures, tariff impacts, and later period demand softness, conditions that reinforced the importance of our ongoing focus on cost control, planning discipline and inventory management. Even in that environment, we generated an approximately $1.8 million improvement in cash flows from operations and approximately $1.3 million in Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX. Delivering that level of cash generation and EBITDA on lower revenue than the third quarter reflects improved discipline across the organization, stronger cost control, and better day-to-day operating execution.

"I also want to recognize the work of our team, whose efforts helped to drive meaningful improvement in the quarter. Subsequent to year end, we successfully completed the divestiture of the HPFR and HiViz product lines, generating approximately $14 million in cash proceeds, simplifying the business, and further strengthening our capital position. This transaction reduces operational complexity, strengthens liquidity and allows us to concentrate resources more directly on our core Fire Services and industrial protective products businesses.

"Stepping back to the full year, fiscal 2026 was characterized by solid demand across our core markets alongside a volatile cost environment and a deliberate focus on cost reduction and simplification. Revenue increased approximately 15% to $192.6 million, supported by continued momentum in Fire Services. While revenue increased during the year, earnings were pressured as we prioritized expense actions, inventory discipline, and structural simplification amid these conditions. We do not view that as a demand issue, but as a reflection of cost headwinds, mix, and the timing of benefits from actions taken during the year.

"As we move into fiscal 2027, we are encouraged that these issues are actively being addressed, and that we are already seeing signs of progress. Inventory is down approximately $5.3 million since October, reflecting improved inventory alignment and tighter controls across sourcing and production. We are removing costs across logistics and operations, strengthening accountability, and putting a tighter structure around sales and production planning. Operating cadence and planning discipline improved during the latter part of fiscal 2026, reducing reactive decision-making and supporting better short-term visibility. Through the first two months of Q1 FY27, the business is tracking consistent with expectations as cost actions and inventory discipline begin to carry forward.

Just as importantly, Lakeland now offers a full head-to-toe range of NFPA 1970:2026 certified products across our brand portfolio. The timing of these certifications had limited ordering activity during fiscal 2026, and completion of these certifications improves product availability as we move forward. We look forward to displaying our NFPA-certified fire portfolio at FDIC 2026.

"Looking ahead, we believe Lakeland is entering fiscal 2027 with a simpler portfolio, improved internal discipline, and a healthy level of demand across both Fire and Industrial. We are modestly ahead of budget going into the new fiscal year, and the pipeline continues to build. Our focus in fiscal 2027 is to build on the cost reductions, simplified portfolio, and inventory discipline established in fiscal 2026, with the objective of delivering more consistent margins and positive operating cash flow. Based on these actions and the underlying demand environment, we are providing FY 2027 objectives of high single-digit revenue growth and positive cash flows from operations," Jenkins concluded.

***<u>Fiscal 2026 Full Year Financial Highlights</u>***

• Net sales increased 15.2% to $192.6 million for FY26, compared to $167.2 million for FY25, driven by a $30.6 million, or 48.6%, increase in Fire Services revenue, supported by the full-year contributions of Veridian, LHD, Jolly, and Pacific Helmets acquisitions and the addition of Arizona PPE and California PPE in FY26.

• Cash and cash equivalents were $12.5 million at January 31, 2026. Working capital was approximately $96.2 million. Subsequent to January 31, 2026, completed the divestiture of the HPFR (High Performance FR) and HiViz product lines, generating approximately $14 million of cash proceeds.

• Inventories decreased approximately $5.3 million since October 31, 2025, reflecting progress on inventory rightsizing.

**Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

**Net sales** were $45.8 million for Q4 FY26, a decrease of $0.8 million or 1.7% compared to $46.6 million for Q4 FY25. By product line, Fire Services increased $0.5 million to $21.7 million, and Chemical increased $0.3 million to $5.0 million. These gains were more than offset by a $0.9 million decrease in Disposables, a $1.0 million decrease in Wovens, and smaller declines in Gloves and High Visibility. U.S. revenue increased $1.3 million or 7.1% to $19.6 million for Q4 FY26, while Europe revenue decreased $2.4 million to $12.1 million, reflecting timing of orders from LHD and Jolly.

**Gross profit** for Q4 FY26 was approximately $14.7 million, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 21.2%, compared to $18.7 million for Q4 FY25. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 32.2% for Q4 FY26 from 40.1% for Q4 FY25, reflecting product mix, underutilization in Mexico and Vietnam manufacturing, raw material cost pressures, elevated freight costs, and execution gaps in production planning and systems.

------

**Operating expenses** were approximately $17.3 million for Q4 FY26, compared to $18.8 million in Q4 FY25. The decrease reflected ongoing cost management initiatives partially offset by personnel and professional fee costs. Operating loss was approximately ($5.2) million for Q4 FY26, which included $2.6 million of goodwill impairment charges, compared to an operating loss of ($10.7) million for Q4 FY25, which included $10.5 million of goodwill impairment charges.

**Net loss** was ($6.2) million, or ($0.61) per diluted share, for Q4 FY26, compared to a net loss of ($18.4) million, or ($2.42) per diluted share, for Q4 FY25. The prior year period included $18.2 million in combined non-cash goodwill and Bodytrak equity method investment impairments.

**Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX** for Q4 FY26 was approximately $1.3 million, compared to $6.1 million for Q4 FY25. The decrease was primarily driven by the decline in gross margin related to the factors described above.

**Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results**

**Net sales** were $192.6 million for FY26, an increase of $25.4 million or 15.2% compared to $167.2 million for FY25. Our Fire Services line was a key driver, with revenue growing $30.6 million, or 48.6%, to $93.6 million. U.S. revenue increased $21.2 million, or 35.1%, driven by Veridian, Arizona PPE and California PPE. Europe revenue increased $12.1 million, or 28.7%, primarily due to full-year contribution from LHD. Partially offsetting these gains, Latin America declined $4.8 million and Canada declined $1.4 million, reflecting timing of orders and macroeconomic uncertainties. On a consolidated basis, domestic sales were $81.6 million, or 42%, of total revenues, and international sales were $111.0 million or 58% of total revenues.

**Gross profit** was $63.3 million for FY26, a decrease of $5.4 million, or 7.8%, compared to $68.7 million for FY25. Gross margin decreased to 32.9% from 41.1%, driven by product mix from fire acquisitions, manufacturing underutilization, and raw material and tariff headwinds.

**Operating expenses** increased 14.2% to $77.0 million for FY26 from $67.4 million for FY25, driven by personnel costs, equity compensation, acquisition-related costs, and professional fees to support the Company's growth. The Company recognized a $2.6 million goodwill impairment charge related to the LHD reporting unit, a $3.6 million lease impairment on the Monterrey, Mexico right-of-use asset, and a $4.3 million gain on the sale of the Decatur, Alabama warehouse facilities. Operating loss was ($15.5) million for FY26, compared to ($9.3) million for FY25.

**Net loss** was ($25.3) million, or ($2.63) per diluted share, for FY26, compared to a net loss of ($18.1) million, or ($2.43) per diluted share, for FY25. The increase reflects higher operating expenses and an $8.4 million income tax charge from the establishment of a full valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets, partially offset by the gain on the Decatur sale.

**Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX** for FY26 was approximately $7.2 million, compared to $17.4 million for FY25, reflecting the decline in gross margin and higher operating costs described above.

**Cash and cash equivalents** were $12.5 million at January 31, 2026, with working capital of approximately $96.2 million. Cash decreased $5.0 million versus January 31, 2025, reflecting $15.8 million of operating cash usage and $11 million of net investing outflows, offset by $12.5 million provided by financing activities. Subsequent to January 31, 2026, completed the divestiture of the HPFR (High Performance FR) and HiViz product lines, generating approximately $14 million of cash proceeds.

As of January 31, 2026, there were borrowings of $28.5 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, with an additional $11.5 million of available credit under the Loan Agreement and additional debt of $3.8 million.

------

As of January 31, 2026, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants under its revolving credit agreement. After January 31, 2026, the Company received a limited waiver from its lender pursuant to which such noncompliance was waived.

**Net cash used in operating activities** was $15.8 million in the year ended January 31, 2026, compared to $15.9 million in the year ended January 31, 2025. Cash usage was driven by a net loss of ($25.3) million and unfavorable changes in operating assets of $4.9 million, partially offset by non-cash charges of $14.3 million.

J. Calven Swinea, Chief Financial Officer, added, "In fiscal 2026, revenues increased $25.4 million, or 15.2%, to $192.6 million, driven by demand in global Fire Services and contributions from recent acquisitions. During the year, we focused on simplifying the business, managing costs, and strengthening our financial foundation in a volatile operating environment.

"Gross margin compression in fiscal 2026 was primarily driven by product mix associated with our fire acquisitions, underutilization in our Mexico and Vietnam facilities, and raw material and tariff headwinds. These are operational issues that we are actively addressing. We are also taking structural actions, including the planned consolidation of India production into Vietnam, that we believe will support improved efficiency and utilization over time.

"Importantly, the approximately $14 million in proceeds from the HPFR and HiViz divestiture announced in March 2026, is expected to further strengthen liquidity and financial flexibility. As we move into fiscal 2027, our focus remains on sustaining cost discipline, improving utilization, and delivering more consistent gross margin and operating cash flow. With the revolving credit facility waiver in place, we are now focused on completing a transition to an asset-based lending structure. We are in advanced discussions and working through final steps with a lender. While there can be no assurance of completion, we are encouraged by the level of engagement and expect to complete this transition in the near term."

The financial data above includes non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Operating Expenses. Management excludes from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA all expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, Goodwill impairment, impairment of investment, 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, start-up costs for our Mexican operations, PFAS litigation expenses, ERP Project related costs and earnout revaluation. 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.

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjustments for Equity Compensation, which consist of non-cash expenses for the grant of equity awards.<br><sup>(2)</sup> Adjustments for Other Income, which consists of interest income and gains/(losses) from Investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting.<br><sup>(3)</sup> Adjustments for acquisition-related expenses included advisory fees, due diligence expenses and legal fees related to the Company's acquisitions.<br><sup>(4)</sup> Adjustments for the reduction of the estimated earnout payment related to the Eagle acquisition. Reduction to the accrued earnout payment reflected in operating expenses.<br>

------

<sup>(5)</sup> Adjustments for accrued employee severance and restructuring costs.<br><sup>(6)</sup> 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.<br><sup>(7)</sup> Adjustments for PFAS Litigation.<br><sup>(8)</sup> Adjustments for the implementation of new ERP consisted of external services and employee related expenses.<br><sup>(9)</sup> Adjustments for amortization of the step-up in basis for inventory acquired related to the Company's acquisitions.<br><sup>(10)</sup> Goodwill impairment charges of $2.6 million representing 45% of goodwill related to the LHD reporting unit in the Europe geographic segment, $3.0 million representing the entire amount of goodwill related to the Pacific reporting unit and $7.5 million representing 83% of goodwill related to the Eagle reporting unit.<br><sup>(11)</sup> The Company recorded a gain on sale-leaseback for the sale of the Decatur, Alabama warehouse facility.<br><sup>(12)</sup> The Company recorded an impairment primarily related to the right of use asset for the Monterrey, Mexico facility.<br><sup>(13)</sup> Impairment loss of $7.6 million for the remaining recorded value of the equity method and convertible notes investment in Bodytrak.

Q4 2026 and Subsequent Operational & Business Updates Net sales increased $25.4 million, or 15.2%, to $192.6 million for the full year, and decreased $0.8 million, or 1.7%, to $45.8 million in Q4 compared to the prior year period. U.S. sales increased to $81.6 million, or 35.1%, for the full year, and increased 7.1% to $19.6 million in Q4. Europe sales increased 12.1 million, or 28.7%, to $54.2 million for the full year, and decreased 2.4 million, or 16.6%, to $12.1 million in Q4. Net loss for Q4 2026 improved $12.2 million, or 66.3%, to ($6.2) million from a net loss of to ($18.4) million in Q4 2025. Completed divestiture of High Performance FR and HiViz product lines, generating $14 million of cash proceeds, meaningfully strengthening liquidity position. Achieved NFPA 1970:2025 certification for products including Lakeland Structural Turnout and Proximity Gear, offering customers a full range of head-to-toe certified products across Lakeland's brand portfolio, to be showcased at FDIC 2026. Strengthened governance and executive team with the appointments of Lee D. Rudow to the Board of Directors, Calven Swinea as CFO and Kevin Rae as EVP, EMEA Fire Sales. Completed the acquisitions of Arizona PPE and California PPE. Macro Environment FY26 operations were impacted by increases in freight costs, raw material inflation and ongoing supply-chain disruptions. U.S. trade policy has undergone significant shifts, namely new and expanded tariffs on key trading partners. These shifts, and potential retaliatory tariffs, have created cost pressures and potential uncertainty. Uncertainty in select markets, certification timing delays and material flow challenges have negatively impacted production efficiency, revenue timing, and gross margins. Inventories on January 31, 2026, totaled $82.5 million. Looking Ahead Entering Fiscal 2027 with a simpler portfolio, a stronger balance sheet, and improved internal discipline. Modestly ahead of budget going into FY 2027, and the pipeline continues to build. Focus is converting demand into reliable, repeatable financial performance, improve forecasting, and driving stronger margins and cashflow. We are encouraged by the early progress we are seeing and believe we are creating a foundation for consistent execution and improved shareholder value over time.
