Lakeland Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:LAKE) is a global manufacturer of protective clothing for industrial, healthcare, and emergency response workers. The company, operating as Lakeland Fire + Safety, is scheduled to release its quarterly earnings on September 9, 2026. Analysts are forecasting an earnings per share (EPS) of -$0.06 and revenue of around $51.36 million.
The negative EPS estimate aligns with Lakeland Industries’ recent performance. Over the last twelve months, the company has not been profitable, resulting in a negative price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of -5.34. A negative P/E ratio occurs when a company has reported a net loss, meaning its earnings are less than zero.
Despite the lack of profitability, Lakeland Industries continues to secure significant business. As highlighted by GlobeNewsWire, the company recently won a second consecutive contract to supply foul weather gear to the Hong Kong Government Flying Service. It also secured a contract to provide firefighting equipment to Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited.
These new contracts in the Asia-Pacific region support the company’s revenue-generating activities. While the company shows a negative earnings yield of -18.30%, its price-to-sales ratio is 0.59. This metric compares the company’s stock price to its revenues, showing investors pay $0.59 for every dollar of sales.
From a financial health perspective, Lakeland Industries shows a strong ability to meet its short-term obligations, with a current ratio of 3.09. This means it has over three times the assets to cover its immediate liabilities. Furthermore, its debt-to-equity ratio of 0.32 indicates that the company relies more on owner’s funds than debt.
