The campaign will highlight how Lakeland is driving revenue growth by expanding its market opportunities in both fire services and industrial safety products, including a strategic focus on expanding its global head-to-toe fire services offering that resulted in a 34% year-over-year increase in fire services revenue in its fiscal 2025 second quarter. The Company's existing backlog and outlook for the remainder of the year enabled Lakeland to reaffirm its FY 2025 Guidance and Outlook of FY25 Revenue in the range of $160 million - $170 million & FY25 Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $18 million - $21.5 million(1) in its second quarter earnings call.

Chris Tyson commented, "Positive momentum and strong tailwinds in the fire services and safety and personal protective equipment markets are supporting an approximately $6.0 billion total addressable market for Lakeland. A recently restructured senior management team, led by Jim Jenkins, CEO, has positioned Lakeland for sustainable growth in this stable and dynamic sector driven by a focus on organic and inorganic growth opportunities. As evidenced by Lakeland's recent financial performance, we are seeing the results from a strong leadership team focused on growth in fire services through strategic acquisitions, an enhanced global sales team that can now offer a complete head-to-toe fire services solutions in a fraction of the lead time versus current competition and future optionality with a new software product for garment tracking and cleaning for fire and industrial products customers. With a sub 5% market penetration globally, strategic competitive and manufacturing advantages, a strong balance sheet and a compelling valuation versus larger public comparables, we look forward to sharing the Lakeland story with our network of institutional, family offices and retail investors," concluded Tyson.

Larry Holub added, "We see significant upside in the growing high-margin and fragmented global fire market, as well as other higher-value-added industrial safety products and segments for Lakeland. The company's owned, global manufacturing base, geographically-diverse sales platform, and mission-critical product portfolio have created a scalable, asset-light business model."

Jim Jenkins, President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of Lakeland, commented, "This is an exciting time for Lakeland as we continue to execute our key growth initiatives. Most recently, the successful acquisition of the fire and rescue business of LHD Group Deutschland GmbH and its subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Australia enhances our global presence and fire service offerings, and we continue to look for strategic opportunities to expand our fire turnout business through acquisitions while also growing our industrial safety business. We look forward to working with Chris and the entire team at MZ Group to communicate our business milestones in the weeks and months ahead."
