Introduction

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This 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:

Our ability to obtain fabrics and components from suppliers and manufacturers at competitive prices or prices that vary from quarter to quarter;

Risks associated with our international manufacturing and start-up sales operations;

Potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;

Our ability to respond to rapid technological change;

Our ability to identify and complete acquisitions or future expansion;

Our ability to manage our growth;

Our ability to recruit and retain skilled employees, including our senior management;

Our ability to accurately estimate customer demand;

Competition from other companies, including some with greater resources;

Risks associated with sales to foreign buyers;

Restrictions on our financial and operating flexibility as a result of covenants in our credit facilities;

Our ability to obtain additional funding to expand or operate our business as planned;

The impact of potential product liability claims;

Liabilities under environmental laws and regulations;

Fluctuations in the price of our common stock;

Variations in our quarterly results of operations;

The cost of compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules and regulations relating to corporate governance and public disclosure;

The significant influence of our directors and executive officers on our company and on matters subject to a vote of our stockholders;

The impact of a decline in federal funding for preparations for terrorist incidents;

The limited liquidity of our common stock;

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.” The factors described under “Risk Factors” disclosed in our fiscal 2011 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.

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 therein. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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 year ended January 31, 2011.

The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended October 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

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 consist of the following:

	October 31, 2011		January 31, 2011

Raw materials	$	21,844,777	$	17,830,675
Work-in-process		2,026,618		2,796,825

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 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 the 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 for continuing operations” at October 31, 2011 and 2010 as follows:

6.	Revolving Credit Facility

At October 31, 2011, the balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility amounted to $12.7 million. In January 2010, the Company entered into a new one-year $23.5 million revolving credit facility with TD Bank, N.A. In January 2011, TD Bank, N.A. agreed to a two-year extension to expire January 2013. In June 2011, TD Bank, N.A. agreed to extend the term to June 2014 and add a $6.5 term loan facility to be used to fund capital expansion in Brazil, Mexico and Argentina, as well as the ability to refinance existing debt in Canada. Borrowings under this $6.5 million term loan facility are in the form of a five-year term loan.

As of October 31, 2011, there was $3.7 million outstanding under this term loan facility, which is being used to fund capital projects in Brazil and Mexico. The credit facility contains financial covenants including, but not limited to, fixed charge ratio, funded debt to EBIDTA ratio, inventory and accounts receivable collateral coverage ratio, with respect to which the Company was in compliance at October 31, 2011. The current interest rate on this term loan at October 31, 2011, was 2.47%, and principal was due $63,333 monthly.

7.	Major Supplier

Purchases from DuPont (see Note 13) and Southern Mills accounted for 16.3% and 17.5% of total purchases for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2011, and 25.7% and 6.8% of total purchases for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2010.

8.	Employee Stock Compensation

The Company’s Director’s Plan permits the grant of share options and shares to its Directors for up to 60,000 shares of common stock as stock compensation. All stock options under this Plan are granted at the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date. This date is fixed only once a year upon a Board member’s re-election to the Board at the Annual Shareholders’ meeting. Director’s stock options vest ratably over a six-month period and generally expire six years from the grant date.

There are two general equity plans, the 2006 and 2009 equity plans, and a nonemployee director option plan. Each of the 2006 and 2009 plans has the identical structure and each plan includes all of the components described below:

	Nature and terms
Restricted Stock Plan - employees	Long-term incentive compensation-three-year plan. Employees are granted potential share awards at the beginning of the three-year cycle at baseline and maximum amounts. The level of award and final vesting is based on the Board of Director’s opinion as to the performance of the Company and management in the entire three year cycle. All vesting is three-year “cliff” vesting - there is no partial vesting. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and amortized to expense over the three-year period.

Restricted Stock Plan – Directors	Long-term incentive compensation-three-year plan. Directors are granted potential share awards at the beginning of the three-year cycle at baseline and maximum amounts. The level of award and final vesting is based on the Board of Director’s opinion as to the performance of the Company and management in the entire three-year cycle. All vesting is three-year “cliff” vesting-there is no partial vesting. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and amortized to expense over the three-year period.

Matching award program	All participating employees are eligible to receive one share of restricted stock awarded for each two shares of Lakeland stock purchased on the open market. Such restricted shares are subject to three-year time vesting. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and amortized to expense over the three-year period.

Bonus in stock program - employees	All participating employees are eligible to elect to receive any cash bonus in shares of restricted stock. Such restricted shares are subject to two-year time vesting. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and amortized to expense over the two-year 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 grant date stock price.

Director fee in stock program	All directors are eligible to elect to receive any director fees in shares of restricted stock. Such restricted shares are subject to two- year time vesting. The valuation is based on the stock price at the grant date and amortized to expense over the two-year 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.

Non-employee director stock option plan	The plan provides for an automatic one-time grant of options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock to each nonemployee director newly elected or appointed. Options are granted at not less than fair market value, become exercisable commencing six months from the date of grant and expire six years from the date of grant. In addition, all nonemployee directors re-elected to the Company’s Board of Directors at any annual meeting of the stockholders will automatically be granted additional options to purchase 1,000 shares of common stock on that date.

The following table represents our stock options granted, exercised and forfeited during the nine months ended October 31, 2011.

Stock Options	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at January 31, 2011		12,200	$	9.02	3.61 years	$	17,030
Granted during the nine-months ended October 31, 2011		5,000	$	8.28	6.00 years	$	0
Outstanding at October 31, 2011		17,200	$	7.26	3.58 years	$	8,000
Exercisable at October 31, 2011		17,200	$	7.26	3.58 years	$	8,000

There were no exercises or forfeitures during the nine-months ended October 31, 2011.

Restricted Stock Plan and Performance Equity Plan

On June 21, 2006, the stockholders of the Company approved a restricted stock plan (the “2006 Equity Incentive Plan”). A total of 253,000 shares of restricted stock were authorized under this plan. On June 17, 2009, the stockholders of the Company authorized 253,000 shares under a new restricted stock plan (the “2009 Equity Incentive Plan”). Under the restricted stock plans, eligible employees and directors are awarded performance-based restricted shares of the Company common stock. The amount recorded as expense for the performance-based grants of restricted stock are based upon an estimate made at the end of each reporting period as to the most probable outcome of this plan at the end of the three-year performance period. (e.g., baseline, maximum or zero). In addition to the grants with vesting based solely on performance, certain awards pursuant to the plan have a time-based vesting requirement, under which awards vest from two to three years after grant issuance, subject to continuous employment and certain other conditions. Restricted stock has no voting rights until fully vested and issued, and the underlying shares are not considered to be issued and outstanding until vested.

Under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company has granted up to a maximum of 241,744 restricted stock awards as of October 31, 2011. All of these restricted stock awards are nonvested at October 31, 2011 (182,675 shares at “baseline”), and have a weighted average grant date fair value of $7.45. Under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, there are also outstanding as of October 31, 2011, unvested grants of 338 shares under the stock purchase match program. The Company recognizes expense related to performance-based awards over the requisite service period using the straight-line attribution method based on the outcome that is probable.

As of October 31, 2011, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards totaled $830,855, consisting of $212 remaining under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and $830,643 under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, before income taxes, based on the maximum performance award level, less what has been charged to expense on a cumulative basis through October 31, 2011, which was set at baseline. Such unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards totaled $358,095 at the baseline performance level. The cost of these nonvested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of three years. The Board has estimated its current performance level to be at the baseline level, and expenses have been recorded accordingly. The performance based awards are not considered stock equivalents for earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation purposes.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognized total stock-based compensation costs of $499,493 and $591,751 for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, of which $4,253 and $43,257 result from the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and $476,692 and $548,494 result from the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $18,548 and $0, respectively, from the Director Option Plan. These amounts are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. The total income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation arrangements was $179,817 and $213,031 for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We manage our operations by evaluating each of our geographic locations. Our North American operations include our facilities in Decatur, Alabama (primarily the distribution to customers of the bulk of our products and the manufacture of our chemical, glove and disposable products), Jerez, Mexico (primarily disposable, glove and chemical suit production) and St. Joseph, Missouri and Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania (primarily woven products production). We also maintain three manufacturing companies in China (primarily disposable and chemical suit production), a wovens manufacturing facility in Brazil and a glove manufacturing facility in New Delhi, India (about to be closed). Our China and Brazil facilities produce the majority of the Company’s revenues. The accounting policies of these operating entities are the same as those described in Note 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2011. We evaluate the performance of these entities based on operating profit, which is defined as income before income taxes, interest expense and other income and expenses. We have sales forces in Canada, Europe, Latin America and China, which sell and distribute products shipped from the United States, Mexico, Brazil or China. The table below represents information about reported manufacturing segments for the three-month and nine-month periods noted therein:

10.	Income Tax Audit/Change in Accounting Estimate

The Company establishes a liability for tax return positions in which there is uncertainty as to whether or not the position will ultimately be sustained. Amounts for uncertain tax positions are adjusted in quarters when new information becomes available or when positions are effectively settled. The Company recognizes interest expense and penalties related to these unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense.

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’s federal income tax returns for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). The Company has received a final “No Change Letter” from the IRS for FY07 dated August 20, 2009. The Company has received notice from the IRS on March 21, 2011, that it will shortly commence an audit for the FY09 tax return.

Our three major foreign tax jurisdictions are China, Canada and Brazil. According to China tax regulatory framework, there is no statute of limitations on fraud or any criminal activities to deceive tax authorities. However, the general practice is going back five years, and general practice for records maintenance is 15 years. Our China subsidiaries were audited during the tax year 2007 for the tax years 2006, 2005 and 2004. Those audits were conducted in the ordinary course of business. China tax authorities did not perform tax audits in the ordinary course of business during tax years 2008, 2009, 2010 or during the current year as of current filing date. China tax authorities performed a fraud audit, but the scope was limited to the fraud activities found in late FY09 as discussed more fully in Note 15 to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2010. This audit covered tax years from 2003 through 2008. We have reached a settlement with the Chinese Government in January 2009. China tax authorities have performed limited reviews on all China subsidiaries as of tax years 2008, 2009 and 2010 with no significant issues noted. We believe our tax positions are reasonably stated, and we do not anticipate any future tax liability from FY12 or earlier operations.

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 Company’s tax situation is reasonably stated, and we do not anticipate future tax liability.

The Company’s Brazilian subsidiary is currently under a tax audit, which raised some issues regarding the tax impact related to the merger held in 2008 and the resulting goodwill resulting from the structure which was set up at the company's Brazilian counsel's suggestion. The Company has not received any formal communication from the authorities. Since there is no formal claim received, and there may not be such a claim in any case, management and counsel are at this time and are unable to determine the likely outcome of any such potential claim and whether it is probable, possible or remote that any significant liability might be incurred. However, this structure is relatively common in acquisitions of Brazilian operations made by non-Brazilian companies. In general, acquisitions with this structure have survived challenge by the taxing authorities in Brazil. The cumulative amount of tax benefits recognized on the company’s books through October 31, 2011, resulting from the tax deduction of the goodwill amortization is USD$730,000.

11.	Derivative Instruments and Foreign Currency Exposure

The Company has foreign currency exposure, principally through sales in Canada, Brazil, China, Argentina, Chile and the UK, and production in Brazil, Mexico and China. Management has commenced a derivative instrument program to partially offset this risk by purchasing forward contracts to sell the Canadian Dollar, the Chilean Peso, the Euro, the Great Britain Pound and the Argentina Peso 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. Management has decided not to hedge its long position in the Chinese Yuan or the Brazilian Real. We designated the forward contracts as derivatives not designated as hedging instruments with loss and gain recognized in the current earnings. In the three-months ended October 31, 2011, the Company sustained a loss on foreign exchange in Brazil of $340,000 or $(0.05) per share included in net income from continuing operations. In the three months ended October 31, 2010, the Company recorded a gain on foreign exchange in Brazil of $161,000 or $0.03 per share included in net income from continuing operations.

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.

Currently, 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 contracts derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are generally settled quarterly. Gain and loss on forward contracts are including current earnings. We also 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 other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Our hedge positions are summarized below:

12. VAT Tax Issue in Brazil

Asserted Claims

VAT tax in Brazil is both at the federal and state level, but the larger amount is at the state level. We commenced operations in Brazil in May 2008 through an acquisition of Lakeland Brasil, S.A. (“Qualytextil”, “QT”). At the time of the acquisition, and going back to 2004, the acquired company used a port facility in a neighboring state, 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.

In October 2009, QT received an audit notice from Bahia claiming 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).

Bahia had announced an amnesty for this tax whereby the taxes claimed were paid by QT by the end of the month of May 2010, and the interest and penalties were forgiven. According to fiscal regulation of Brazil, this amnesty payment has since been partially recouped as credits against future taxes due.

Set forth below are the total amounts of potential tax liability from both the first and second claims, the amount of payments already made into amnesty or scheduled for future payment, which are not eligible for future credit (essentially the discount allowed as an incentive by the neighboring state), less the amount of VAT taxes actually paid which are available as a credit and the amounts of the escrow released by one of the three sellers of the Brazilian company acquired by the Company. The foregoing forms the basis for the USD $1.6 million charge to expense recorded by Lakeland in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

¹ Essentially represents the discount originally offered as incentive by neighboring state.

2 The amount allowed as credit against future payments represents the VAT taxes actually previously paid to the neighboring state.

Of these claims, our attorney informs us that R$1.0 (US$0.6) million will be successfully defended based on a lapse of statute of limitations and R$0.3 (US$0.2) million based on state auditor misunderstanding. No accrual has been made for these items.

The total taxes paid into the amnesty program on May 31, 2010 were R$3.5 (US$2.2) million.

Amounts from Preacquisition Period; Escrow

The initially asserted tax claims of R$4.8 million (R$10.4 million with penalty and interest) (US$3.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively) all relate to imports during the period 2004-2006, prior to the QT acquisition by the Company in May 2008. At the closing, there were several escrow funds established to protect the Company from contingencies as discussed herein. One seller has released, to the Company, his escrow with a balance of R$1.0 (US$0.6) million as an indemnification payment for this claim. Lakeland has filed a claim against the remaining funds in escrow. The remaining funds in escrow have a total current balance of R$2.1 (US$1.3) million.

An audit for the 2007-2009 period has been completed by the State of Bahia. In October 2010, the Company received a claim for 2007-2009 from the State of Bahia for taxes of R$6.2 (US$3.9) million and fines and penalties of R$4.9 (US$3.1) million, for a total of R$11.1 (US$6.9) million, which had been expected per above. The Company intends to defend and wait for the next amnesty period. Of these claims, our attorney informs us that R$0.4 (US$0.3) million will be successfully defended based on state auditor misunderstanding.

Lakeland intends to apply for amnesty and make any necessary payments upon the forthcoming amnesty periods imposed by the local Brazilian authorities. Of this R$6.2 (US$3.9) million exposure, R$3.4 (US$2.1) million is eligible for future credit. The R$2.8 (US$1.7) million balance is subject to indemnification from the Seller of QT to the Company, and the Company is in the process of pursuing this claim through an arbitration proceeding in progress. Also, there is $0.1 million our attorney informs us is a mistake made by the state auditor, which he believes will be successfully defended.

Company counsel advises the Company that in his opinion the next amnesty will come before the end of the judicial process. There has been a long history in Bahia of the state declaring such amnesty periods every two to three years going back 25 years. The litigation process begins as two separate administrative proceedings and, after a period of time, must be switched to a formal court judicial proceeding. If the next amnesty does not arrive prior to the commencement of the formal court proceedings, the Company will have to remit a “judicial deposit” covering the exposure from 2007-2009 in taxes of approximately R$6.2 (US$3.9) million plus assessed fines and interest bringing the judicial deposit needed to approximately R$11.1 (US$6.9) million. The initial estimated time period to Judicial Court deposit was 1.5-2 years.

Future Accounting for Funds

Following payment into the amnesty program, the taxes were since recouped via credits against future taxes due. The Company does not expect any further charges to expense other than as described below:

In addition to the direct cost of the additional tax liability accrued per above, there are several additional costs which will be future costs. There will be interest costs on the cash paid during the period from the payment to the state and the credit to be subsequently used, which has been and will be charged to expense as incurred. There will be legal fees to defend and resolve this legal matter before the state, which will be charged to expense as incurred. Further, there will be a loss of an incentive known as “desenvolve”3 as a result of using the credit rather than cash payments for the future VAT taxes. The “desenvolve” has already been reflected in the operating results subsequent to May 2010 through August 2011 when the initial credit was exhausted and the Company resumed normal monthly cash payments for VAT taxes. This has been reflected as a reduction in the gross margin in the ensuing period through August 2011. This is not a cost but a lost discount.

3 A definition of this term is given on page 57 of the January 31, 2011, Form 10-K.

(1) Our attorney informs us that based on the slow progress so far in the administrative proceedings for the 2007-2009 claim, that believes it is now more likely than not that the next amnesty will arrive prior to the need to pay the R$11.1 judicial deposit. Therefore, the most likely cash flow outlook in management’s opinion is as follows:

R$3.1 (US$1.9) million 2004-2006 Judicial deposit	Quarter One Fiscal year 2013
R$6.2 (US$3.9) million 2007-2009 claim into amnesty	Quarter One Fiscal year 2013 to Quarter Three Fiscal year 2013

Further, management believes it will be able to satisfy the R$3.1 (US$1.9) million judicial deposit by pledging real estate owned rather than paying cash.

At the next amnesty period:

If before judicial process - still administration proceeding - the Company would pay just the taxes with no penalty or interest. This would then be recouped via credits against future taxes on future imports. As before, the Company would lose desenvolve 3 and interest.

If after judicial process commences - the amount of the judicial deposit previously remitted would be reclassified to the taxes at issue, and the excess submitted to cover fines and interest would be refunded to QT. As above, the taxes would be recouped via credits against future taxes on future imports, but we would lose desenvolve 3 and interest.

The desenvolve 3 is scheduled to expire on February 2013 and will be partially phased out starting February 2011. Based on the anticipated timing of the next amnesty, there may be little amounts of lost desenvolve 3 since it would largely expire on its own terms in any case.

Possible Recourse Actions

The Company’s counsel has reviewed potential actions against sellers under indemnification proceedings, including possible claims on postacquisition exposure resulting from misrepresentations, and has begun arbitration proceedings against two of the selling stockholders. The Company is also evaluating potential action for recourse against other parties involved in the original transactions.

When the Company receives the remaining funds from escrow, this will be recorded as a gain at such time. Any further indemnifications from the sellers and potential other parties will also be recorded as a gain at such time as received.

The Company has also asserted indemnification rights under its Share Purchase Agreement with the sellers and has other legal avenues for recoupment of these monies against both the sellers and will in the future against negligent third parties. Such recoupment, if successful, will be reported as profits over future periods when and if collected.

Balance Sheet Treatment

The Company has reflected the above items on its October 31, 2011, balance sheet as follows:

		(R$ millions)		US$ millions
Noncurrent assets	VAT taxes eligible for future credit	$	3.5	$	2.2
Long-term liabilities	Taxes payable	$	6.0	$	3.3

13. Termination of License Agreement with DuPont

The Company received notice dated July 12, 2011, from E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company (“DuPont”) stating that DuPont has terminated the DuPont Wholesaler Agreement dated January 1, 2011. DuPont has fulfilled orders for purchases of finished garments containing Tychem® and Tyvek® through September 10, 2011.

14. Brazil Management and Share Purchase Agreement

On May 19, 2010, the president and V.P. of Operations (the “two terminated sellers”) of Qualytextil, S.A. (“QT”), Lakeland’s Brazil subsidiary, were terminated for cause as a result of numerous documented breaches of their Management Agreements (“MA”) with QT and misrepresentations in their Share Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with Lakeland. As a result of these breaches and misrepresentations, Lakeland has taken the position that it is not obligated to pay their share or 65% of any Supplemental Purchase Price (“SPP”) due in 2011 pursuant to the SPA. These two sellers’ shares constitute 35% and 30%, respectively, of the SPP totals, if any, which may be due under the SPA. The former Chief Financial Officer of QT has been promoted to President of QT. He holds the remaining 35% of the SPA and SPP totals.

Lakeland and the two terminated sellers unsuccessfully attempted to negotiate a settlement. The claim is now in arbitration. Lakeland has asserted further damages in such arbitration proceeding as more fully discussed in Note 13. The matter is currently being arbitrated with a decision expected in March 2012. Should the terminations be determined by the Arbiters not to be for cause, there could be a payment up to approximately $10.3 million USD payable to the two terminated individuals, or $5.5 million to one and $4.8 million to the other. These payments reflect contractual provisions that entitle these individuals to maximum earn-out payments should they be terminated without cause. Based on the actual results of calendar 2010 as contractually specified, no supplemental purchase price has been earned. Management believes it has strong evidence to support its case that the terminations were properly for cause and believes it is probable that there will be no liability to the Company. As such, no accrual has been made. However, as with most judicial proceedings, there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred. The current balance in the escrow fund is approximately $1.3 million USD which, if released by the arbitration panel to the Company, will represent a gain contingency, net of legal fees and other related costs.

The legal and arbitration fees are being charged to expense as incurred.

16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued amendments to the presentation of comprehensive income, which become effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The amendments eliminate the current reporting option of displaying components of other comprehensive income within the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. Under the new guidance, the Company will be required to present either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or an income statement immediately followed by a statement of comprehensive income. Also, both presentation methods require that reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income be shown on the face of the financial statements.

17. Discontinued Operations in India

On December 5, 2011, the Company decided to discontinue operations in its India glove manufacturing facility and put the assets and business up for sale. The Company decided to sell this division primarily because it has incurred significant operating losses since inception, and the Company has been unsuccessful in developing sufficient sales to reach at least break even. The Company is attempting to sell the operations as an ongoing operation but, if unsuccessful, is preparing for a shutdown of operations by January 2012.

Prior year financial statements for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2010, have been restated to present the operations of the India glove manufacturing subsidiary as a discontinued operation.

In conjunction with the discontinuance of operations, the Company recognized a pretax loss on disposal of $880,694, consisting of $585,000 in inventory write-downs, $145,494 in shutdown expenses and $150,000 in operations in Q4 until shutdown. The assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations are presented separately under the captions “Assets of discontinued operations in India” and Liabilities of discontinued operations in India;” respectively, in the accompanying Balance Sheets at October 31, 2011 and January 31, 2011, and consist of the following:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Form 10-Q may contain certain “forward-looking” information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Overview

We manufacture and sell a comprehensive line of safety garments and accessories for the industrial 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.

We have operated manufacturing facilities in Mexico since 1995, in China since 1996, in India since 2007 and in Brazil since 2008. 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 and permit us to purchase certain raw materials at a lower cost than 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. We completed the moving of production of our reusable woven garments and gloves to these facilities in fiscal 2010. As a result, we have seen cost improvements for these particular product lines as well and, as a result, we expect to see continuing profit margin improvements for these product lines over time.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. The Company derives its sales primarily from its limited use/disposable protective clothing and secondarily from its sales of high-end chemical protective suits, firefighting and heat protective apparel, 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. Sales are reduced for sales returns and allowances. Payment terms are generally net 30 days for United States sales and net 90 days for international sales.

Substantially all the Company’s sales outside Brazil are made through distributors. There are no significant differences across product lines or customers in different geographical areas in the manner in which the Company’s sales are made.

Lakeland offers a growth rebate to certain distributors each year on a calendar - year basis. Sales are tracked on a monthly basis, and accruals are based on sales growth over the prior year. The growth rebate accrual is booked on a monthly basis as a reduction to revenue and an increase to liabilities if the accrual is increased and the reverse if the trend goes in the opposite direction over the prior year in a given month. Based on volume and products purchased, distributors can earn anywhere from 1% to 4% rebates in the form of either a quarterly or annual credit to their account, depending on the specific agreement. In estimating the accrual needed, management tracks sales growth over the prior year.

Our sales are generally final; however, requests for return of goods can be made and must be received within 90 days from invoice date. No returns will be accepted without a written authorization. Return products may be subject to a restocking charge and must be shipped freight prepaid. Any special made-to-order items are not returnable. Customer returns have historically been insignificant.

Customer pricing is subject to change on a 30-day notice; exceptions based on meeting competitors’ pricing are considered on a case-by-case basis.

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. Provision is made 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. The Company recognizes losses when information available before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired based on criteria noted above at the date of the financial statements, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts:

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 higher risk amounts 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 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 carry forwards 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.

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 impairment is evaluated utilizing a two-step process as required by 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.

The functional currency for the Brazil operation is the Brazil Real; the United Kingdom, the Euro; the trading company in China, the RenminBi; the Canada Real Estate, the Canadian dollar; and the Russia operation, the Russian Ruble.

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.

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.

Loss Contingencies . Certain conditions may exist as of the date the 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 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 October 31, 2011, As Compared to January 31, 2011

Cash decreased by $6,418 as borrowings under the revolving credit facility increased by $1.2 million at October 31, 2011. Borrowings under the new term loan facility increased by $3.7 million. Increased borrowing was utilized primarily to fund capital expenditures in Mexico and Brazil. Accounts receivable increased by $0.9 million mainly resulting from an increase in sales in Brazil in the month of October.

Inventory increased by $2.2 million, mainly reflecting a buildup in Brazil in anticipation of large bid contracts and exchange rate differences and an increase in China reflecting the need to source the raw materials locally. Prepaid taxes and other assets decreased by $0.6 million, mainly due to VAT and other taxes refundable in Europe and China and the use of prepaid VAT tax credits resulting from last year’s payment to the amnesty program in Brazil.

At October 31, 2011, the Company had an outstanding loan balance of $12.7 million under its facility with TD Bank, N.A. compared with $11.5 million at January 2011 and borrowings of $3.7 million on its new term note. Total stockholders’ equity increased $0.7 million principally due to the net income for the period of $1.2 million and the changes in foreign exchange translations in other comprehensive income of $(0.5) million.

Three Months Ended October 31, 2011 As Compared to the Three Months Ended October 31, 2010

Net Sales. Net sales from continuing operations decreased $1.0 million, or 3.6%, to $24.7 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from $25.7 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. The net decrease was due to a decrease of $3.6 million in domestic sales, offset by an increase of $2.6 million in foreign sales. External sales from China were slightly lower than the year ago period. This is due in large part to a decline in direct container shipments to the US, resulting from high stock levels at larger customers in the US after the Gulf oil spill. Domestic sales in China and to the Asia Pacific Rim remain strong. UK sales increased by $0.3 million, or 22.6%. Chile and Argentina sales increased by 58%. US domestic sales of disposables decreased by $4.1 million, mainly resulting from the loss of volume in Tyvek products, but chemical suit sales were flat, wovens decreased by $0.4 million, reflective sales increased by $0.3 million, Canada sales increased $0.1 million and glove sales increased by $0.5 million. Sales in Brazil increased by $0.5 million, an increase of 56.8%.

Gross Profit. Gross profit from continuing operations increased $0.2 million, or 3.2%, to $7.4 million for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from $7.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 30.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from 28.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Major factors driving the changes in gross margins were:

Disposables gross margin decreased by $1.4 million this year compared with last year. This decrease was mainly due to lower volume and lower margins in quarter three this year resulting from the sale in the current year of finished goods purchased from DuPont at a much lower margin than in the prior year.

Brazil’s gross margin was 44.9% this year compared with 41.7% last year. This increase was largely due to the sales mix.

Chemical division gross margin increased six percentage points resulting from sales mix.

Canada gross margin increased 1.4 percentage points due to higher volume and favorable exchange rates.

UK gross margin increased by 12.7 percentage points over the prior year due to more favorable market conditions and higher volume.

Reflective division margin increased by 20.6 percentage points due to higher volume and sales mix.

Chile and Argentina gross margin increased by approximately 10 percentage points due to higher volume and sales mix.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses from continuing operations increased $0.9 million, or 14.4%, to $7.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from $6.3 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. As a percentage of sales, operating expenses increased to 29.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from 24.5% for the three months ended October 31, 2010. The $0.9 million increase in operating expenses in the three months ended October 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2010, was comprised of:

$(0.2) million decrease in freight out shipping costs, due to lower volume.

$0.1 million in increased operating costs in China were the result of the large increase in direct international sales made by China, now allocated to SG&A costs, previously allocated to cost of goods sold.

$0.1 million in increased expenses for trade shows over Q3 last year.

$0.3 million increase in administrative and office payroll, mainly resulting from Brazil as follows: a promotion to the national sales manager, who was converted to salary and off commission, several sales hires and a government mandated 6.8% increase for staff salaries, and a new contract for the President of the Brazilian operation.

$0.6 million increase in currency fluctuation loss resulting from a $0.4 million charge this year mainly resulting from Brazil where we do not hedge, compared to a gain of $0.2 million in the previous year.

Operating Profit . Operating profit from continuing operations decreased to $0.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2011 from $0.9 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Operating margins were 0.9% for the three months ended October 31, 2011, compared to 3.5% for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Operating Profit was impacted by a drop in intersegment sales and indirect container shipments to the US from China.

Interest Expense . Interest expenses increased by $0.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2010, due to higher borrowing levels outstanding, including the new term loans, and higher rates.

Income Tax Expense . Income tax expenses consist of federal, state and foreign income taxes. Income tax expenses from continuing operations decreased $0.2 million, to $(0.1) million for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from $0.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Our effective tax rates were not meaningful for quarter three fiscal 2012 and 17.0% for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Our effective tax rate for quarter three fiscal 2012 was due to near consolidated breakeven taxable income and goodwill write-offs in Brazil.

Net Income from continuing Operations . Net income from continuing operations decreased to $0.1 million in the three months ended October 31, 2011 from $0.7 million in the three months ended October 31, 2010, mainly due to the decreased volume and margins from disposables sales and the foreign exchange losses in Brazil.

Net Income . Net income decreased $1.2 million to a loss of $0.6 million for the three months ended October 31, 2011, from a profit of $0.6 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. The decrease in net income primarily resulted from the discontinuance of India and foreign exchange losses in Brazil, along with lower disposables sales and gross margins.

Nine Months Ended October 31, 2011, As Compared to the Nine Months Ended October 31, 2010

Net Sales. Net sales from continuing operations increased $1.5 million, or 2.0%, to $76.2 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from $74.7 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. The net increase was due to an increase of $6.3 million in foreign sales, offset by a decrease of $4.8 million in domestic sales. External sales from China decreased by $1.1 million, reflecting lower direct container shipments into the USA, offset by sales to the new Australian distributor and domestic sales in China. Canadian sales increased by $0.5 million, or 10.2%, UK sales increased by $1.1 million, or 31.5%, Chile sales increased by $0.4 million, or 43.4%, Argentina sales increased by $0.2 million, or 34%, US domestic sales of disposables decreased by $7.7 million, mainly due to loss of Tyvek sales, chemical suit sales increased by $0.3 million, wovens decreased by $1.1 million, reflective sales increased by $1.1 million, or 37.4%, and glove sales increased by $0.3 million. Sales in Brazil were up by $4.0 million or 44.5%.

Gross Profit. Gross profit from continuing operations increased $1.4 million, or 6.4%, to $23.5 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from $22.0 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 30.8% for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from 29.5% for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Major factors driving the changes in gross margins were:

Disposables gross margin decreased by 4.2 percentage points this year compared with last year, resulting from lower volume and the sales in the current year of finished goods purchased from DuPont at a much lower margin than in the prior year, when we manufactured these items ourselves.

Brazil’s gross margin was 42.3% this year compared with 45.9% last year. This decrease was largely due to a larger bid contract in the previous year.

Chemical division gross margin increased 1.5 percentage points, resulting from higher volume and more favorable conditions and mix in quarter three.

Canada gross margin increased 3.4 percentage points due to higher volume and favorable exchange rates.

Reflective division margin increased by 11.0 percentage points due to higher volume and sales mix.

Argentina and Chile gross margins increased due to higher volume and sales mix.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses from continuing operations increased $1.0 million, or 4.8%, to $20.6 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from $19.6 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. As a percentage of sales, operating expenses increased to 27% for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from 26.3% for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. The $1.0 million increase in operating expenses in the nine months ended October 31, 2011, as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2010, was comprised of:

$(0.3) million in decreased sales commissions resulting from restructured rates.

$(0.2) million decrease in freight out shipping costs due to higher volume offset by prior year stock-out conditions and the need for multiple shipments to fulfill one order as stock arrived late from DuPont.

$(0.2) million decrease in professional and consulting fees, resulting from international tax planning in the prior year and the terminations in Brazil in the prior year.

$(0.2) million reduction in bank charges and payroll preparation fees, resulting from reduced acceptance of credit card payment from customers and new payroll provider.

$(0.1) million decrease in equity compensation, resulting from the 2009 restricted stock plan treated at the baseline performance level and the resulting cumulative charge in the previous year.

$0.1 million increase in miscellaneous expenses.

$0.1 million increase in bad debt expense, resulting from on large account in Chile.

$0.2 million increase in sales salaries, resulting from increased sales personnel in Argentina, China and the US wovens division.

$0.2 million in increased trade show expenses.

$0.2 million in increased officer salaries, mainly resulting from a new national sales manager and other changes.

$0.2 million increased rent expense mainly as a result of a new leased facility in the UK.

$0.2 million in increased R & D expenses, resulting from worldwide product development.

$0.4 million increase in administrative payroll, mainly resulting from Brazil as follows: a promotion to the national sales manager, who was converted to salary and off commission, several sales hires and a government mandated 6.8% increase for staff salaries, and a new contract for the President of the Brazilian operation. .

$0.4 million increase in foreign exchange costs, resulting from unhedged losses against the Brazilian Real compared with a gain in the prior year.

Operating Profit . Operating profit from continuing operations increased $0.5 million to $2.9 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from $2.4 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Operating margins were 3.8% for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, compared to 3.2% for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Operating Profit was impacted by a drop in intersegment sales and indirect container shipments to the US from China.

Interest Expenses . Interest expenses from continuing operations increased by $0.2 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2010, due to higher borrowing levels outstanding and higher rates.

Income Tax Expense from Continuing Operations . Income tax expenses from continuing operations consist of federal, state and foreign income taxes. Income tax expenses were $0.4 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, and $0.5 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Our effective tax rates were 16.4% for this year and not meaningful for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. Our effective tax rate for the current year was affected by tax benefits in Brazil, resulting from government incentives and goodwill amortization. Our effective tax rate for the nine months fiscal 2011 was impacted by goodwill write-offs in Brazil and the $1.6 million charge for VAT tax expense in Brazil with no tax benefit recorded.

Net Income from Continuing Operations . Net Income from continuing operations increased $1.9 million to $2.1 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 from $0.2 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. The increase in net income primarily resulted from the $1.6 million charge for VAT tax expense in Brazil in the prior year. The improved profitability before VAT tax expense reflects the increase in gross margins overall and Brazil and the foreign exchange losses incurred this year.

Net Income (Loss) . Net Income increased $1.3 million to $1.2 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, from a loss of $0.1 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2010. This is mainly due to the $1.6 million charge in Brazil for VAT taxes in the prior year and the $0.9 million loss on disposal of Indian operations in the current year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. As of October 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.9 million and working capital of $66.9 million. Cash and cash equivalents were unchanged, and working capital increased $1.9 million from January 31, 2011. Our primary sources of funds for conducting our business activities have been cash flow provided by operations and borrowings under our credit facilities described below. We require liquidity and working capital primarily to fund increases in inventories and accounts receivable associated with our net sales and, for capital expenditures.

Net cash used in operating activities of $1.4 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2011, was due primarily to net income from operations of $1.2 million, offset by an increase in inventories of $2.2 million and an increase in accounts receivable of $1.0 million. Net cash used in investing activities of $3.6 million in the nine months ended October 31, 2011, was mainly due to purchases of property and equipment and expansion in Brazil and Mexico.

We currently have one revolving credit facility, a $23.5 million revolving credit, of which $12.7 million of borrowings were outstanding as of October 31, 2011, and one term loan facility of $6.5 million, of which $3.7 million was outstanding at October 31, 2011. Our credit facility requires that we comply with specified financial covenants relating to fixed charge ratio, funded debt to EBIDTA coverage and inventory and accounts receivable collateral coverage ratios. These restrictive covenants could affect our financial and operational flexibility or impede our ability to operate or expand our business. Default under our credit facility would allow the lender to declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable. Our lender has a security interest in substantially all of our assets to secure the debt under our credit facility. As of October 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all covenants contained in our credit facility.

We believe that our current cash position of $5.9 million, our cash flow from operations, along with borrowing availability under our $23.5 million revolving credit facility, and $6.5 million term loan facility will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated operating, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Capital Expenditures. Our capital expenditures principally relate to purchases of building and equipment in Brazil, manufacturing equipment, computer equipment and leasehold improvements. Our facilities in China are not encumbered by commercial bank mortgages and, thus, Chinese commercial mortgage loans may be available with respect to these real estate assets if we need additional liquidity. There are no further specific plans for material capital expenditures in the fiscal year 2013.

Foreign Currency Exposure. The Company has foreign currency exposure, principally through its investment in Brazil, sales in China, Canada and the UK, operations in Argentina and Chile, and production in Mexico and China. Management has commenced a hedging program to offset this risk by purchasing forward contracts to sell the Canadian Dollar, Chilean Peso, Euro, Argentine Peso and Great Britain Pound. 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. Management has decided not to hedge its long position in the Chinese Yuan or Brazilian Real. We have begun in Q1 a cash flow hedging program in China hedging Euros against the Chinese Yuan relating to production from China sold to the UK.

Health Care Reform. During March 2010, a comprehensive health care reform legislation was signed into law in the US under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (the “Acts”). Included among the major provisions of the law is a change in tax treatment of the federal drug subsidy paid with respect to Medicare-eligible retirees. This change did not have a significant impact because the Company operates its principal drug plan for Medicare-eligible retirees as secondary to Medicare and manages Medicare Part D reimbursement through a third-party administrator. The effect of the Acts on the Company’s other long-term employee benefit obligation and cost depends on finalization of related regulatory requirements. The Company will continue to monitor and assess the effect of the Acts as the regulatory requirements are finalized.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in market risk from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011.

Item 4. 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 October 31, 2011. 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 October 31, 2011.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no changes in Lakeland Industries, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during Lakeland’s third quarter of 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Lakeland Industries, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.
