| Amendment Description | This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 (the “FY22 Form 10-K”) originally filed on April 21, 2022 (the “Original Filing”) by Lakeland Industries, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). We are filing this Amendment solely to correct the Original Filing’s cover page to reflect the correct number of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock as of April 11, 2022, which was 7,615,967 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value. In accordance with Rules 12b-15 and 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we have also amended Part IV, Item 15 of Form 10-K to include currently dated certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 from our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. Similarly, because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment, certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 have been omitted. Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. The Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and we have not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events which occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing. | ||
