LAKE LAKELAND INDUSTRIES INC Insider Trading

Stokes Cameron bought 450 LAKE shares at $9.43; cluster buy by 4 insiders in 14 days amid 2554.1% revenue growth but $-16.0M loss

Stokes Cameron purchased 450 shares at $9.43 on 2026-01-13, increasing holdings by 10.4% to 4,758 shares, as part of a cluster pattern where 3 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days. The timing is notable given that the stock is down 64.8% from its 52-week high of $26.47, though up 12.1% over the prior 30 days. However, the company's fundamentals are conflicted: while annual revenue growth reached 2554.1%, the company posted a net income of $-16.0M in its most recent full fiscal year and remains unprofitable on a quarterly basis with $-16.0M in net income most recently. The synchronized insider accumulation during a period of steep drawdown from peak, combined with extraordinary revenue expansion but persistent losses, suggests insiders are responding to depressed valuation rather than normalized profitability—a pattern that investors should examine closely against the company's path to breakeven.

COO Hui An buys 2,000 shares at $8.97 as LAKE hits -64.9% from 52-week high; cluster pattern with 2 other insider buys in 14 days

Hui An, Chief Operating Officer, purchased 2,000 shares at $8.97 on 2026-01-09, expanding holdings from 70.8K to 72.8K shares. The timing coincides with significant share price weakness: LAKE trades at -64.9% from its 52-week high of $26.47 and is down -44.2% over the past 90 days, though up +3.3% in the past 30 days. His prior buy at this ticker on 2025-01-22 saw a +12.4% return in 30 days but a -28.2% return over 90 days, establishing a historical pattern of early momentum followed by deterioration. The broader context includes a cluster pattern—two other insiders bought within the same 14-day window—combined with fundamental challenges: the company reported a net loss of -$16.0M in the latest quarter and operated unprofitably over its most recent full fiscal year. This purchase occurs while the company faces negative earnings, leaving open the question of whether insiders view the depressed valuation as attractive or whether other considerations (e.g., employment ties) are driving the transaction.

Interim CFO buys 1,000 shares at $8.71; cluster pattern with 2 other insiders in past 14 days as stock down -47.4% in 90 days.

Swinea James Calven Jr., the Interim CFO, purchased 1,000 shares at $8.71 on 2026-01-09, increasing his holdings by 15.9% to 7.3K shares. This transaction occurs in a cluster context: 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated or coincident interest in accumulation. The timing is notable given the stock's 90-day decline of -47.4% from its 52-week high of $26.47, though the company reported a net income of $-16.0M on quarterly revenue of $47.6M—indicating significant operational challenges despite a revenue growth figure of +2554.1%. The cluster buy pattern during a period of substantial equity-value deterioration and operating losses warrants examination of whether insiders possess material non-public information or are responding to publicly visible distress.

CEO Jenkins bought 1,126 shares at $8.88; stock down 65.4% from 52-week high and -40.2% in 30 days.

Jenkins James M., as President, CEO & Executive Chair, purchased 1,126 shares at $8.88 on 2026-01-05, increasing his holdings to 94,564 shares. The purchase occurs amid significant recent weakness: LAKE shares have declined 65.4% from their 52-week high of $26.47 and dropped 40.2% over the past 30 days. At the same ticker, Jenkins has completed 5 prior open-market trades, with a 1 of 4 well-timed buy rate at the 90-day mark, suggesting mixed historical timing. The company is currently unprofitable with a net income of $-16.0M against quarterly revenue of $47.6M, adding context to the valuation decline. A cluster pattern is also present, with 2 other insiders buying within the past 14 days, indicating coordinated insider accumulation during a period of material price weakness.

Chief Revenue Officer Barry G Phillips bought 1,250 shares of LAKE at $8.71 amid -67.4% decline from 52-week high; 2 other insiders bought within 14 days.

Barry G Phillips, Chief Revenue Officer of Lakeland Industries, purchased 1,250 shares at $8.71, raising his holdings to 18,802 shares post-transaction. This purchase occurs as the stock trades -67.4% from its 52-week high of $26.47 and has fallen -43.1% in the past 30 days alone. The transaction is part of a cluster pattern, with 2 other insiders also buying within the past 14 days. While the company reported revenue of $47,586,000.00 for the latest quarter, it remains unprofitable with net income of $-15,955,000.00 over its most recent full fiscal year. The convergence of multiple insiders initiating purchases during a sharp pullback warrants attention to whether this reflects opportunity recognition or reflects broader business conditions affecting confidence among executives.

LAKE CHRO Yartz buys 1,349 shares at $8.15 amid cluster pattern; stock -66.5% from 52-week high, -37.2% in 30 days

Yartz Laurel A., Chief Human Resources Officer, purchased 1,349 shares of LAKELAND INDUSTRIES INC (LAKE) at $8.15 on 2025-12-22, adding to holdings that now total 15,825 shares (a net +9.3% increase). This purchase occurs within a cluster pattern, as 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days. However, the broader context raises caution: the stock trades at $8.86, down -66.5% from its 52-week high of $26.47, with a 30-day decline of -37.2%. The company is operating at a loss (net income of $-15,955,000.00 in the latest quarter) despite strong revenue of $47,586,000.00. Yartz's prior two buys at this same ticker showed mixed outcomes (30d returns of +17.5% and +12.4%, but 90d returns of -11.5% and -28.2%), with neither resulting in positive 90-day performance. The convergence of multiple insider purchases at a depressed price against fundamentally unprofitable operations and the stock's steep recent declines reflects a decision point worth monitoring closely.

LAKE CEO James Jenkins buys 1,265 shares at $7.92; stock down -70.0% from $26.47 52-week high and -42.7% in 30 days.

CEO James M. Jenkins purchased 1,265 shares at $7.92 on 2025-12-19, increasing his holdings to 93,438 shares. The purchase occurs amid significant downward price momentum: the stock is trading at $7.94 (current), down -42.7% over the past 30 days and -70.0% from its 52-week high of $26.47. The company reported negative net income of $-15,955,000.00 against quarterly revenue of $47,586,000.00, reflecting operational losses. Examining Jenkins' prior trades at LAKE, his timing record is mixed: of his 5 previous buys at this ticker, only 1 was well-timed at the 90-day horizon. His cross-ticker buy history shows an average 90-day return of -11.8% with a 20.00% win rate, indicating a pattern of purchases that more often declined than appreciated over the 90-day post-purchase period.

Jenkins (CEO) buys 1,000 LAKE shares at $13.14; stock -49.8% from 52-week high as company remains unprofitable.

Jenkins James M., President, CEO & Executive Chairman, purchased 1,000 shares at $13.14 on 2025-06-18, bringing holdings to 97.3K shares. The purchase occurs after a steep decline: LAKELAND INDUSTRIES is -49.8% from its 52-week high of $26.47, down 29.3% in the past 30 days. The company reported quarterly revenue of $46.7M against a net loss of $3.9M, and remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite posting annual revenue growth of 2554.1%. Notably, Jenkins's prior four buys at LAKE (2024-06-10, 2024-12-30, 2025-01-22, 2025-04-22) delivered poor 90-day timing: 0 of 3 measurable prior purchases resulted in stock appreciation by day 90, with returns ranging from -3.8% to -28.2%. This latest purchase follows the same pattern of accumulation into weakness without a demonstrated track record of successful timing at this ticker.

CHRO Yartz Laurel A. bought 1,000 shares of LAKE at $15.97; stock down 36.9% from 52-week high, company posted negative full-year net income.

Yartz, the Chief Human Resources Officer, purchased 1,000 shares at $15.97 on 2025-04-22, increasing her holdings by 7.3% to 14,721 shares. The timing of this buy coincides with significant stock weakness: the current price of $16.71 is -36.9% from the 52-week high of $26.47, and the stock has fallen -18.0% over the past 30 days and -26.5% over 90 days. However, the insider's prior buy at this same ticker on 2025-01-22 generated a 90-day return of -28.2%, demonstrating a pattern of purchases that have not been well-timed. Compounding this concern is the company's fundamental instability: despite $45.8M in latest-quarter revenue, the company posted negative full-year net income and remains unprofitable, raising questions about the sustainability of the business.

CEO James M. Jenkins buys 1,565 shares of LAKE at $15.93; stock down 36.9% from 52-week high, 3 prior same-ticker buys all underwater at 90 days.

Jenkins purchased 1,565 shares at $15.93 on 2025-04-22, raising his holdings to 98.0K shares. The stock currently trades at $16.71, near its 52-week low range ($15.48–$26.47) and down 36.9% from its 52-week high. His timing pattern at this ticker is notable: 3 prior buys at LAKE (2025-01-22, 2024-12-30, 2024-06-10) all showed negative 90-day returns (−28.2%, −20.1%, −10.7% respectively), with a 0-of-3 well-timed success rate at the 90-day mark. The company reported annual revenue growth of +2554.1% but remains unprofitable on a full-year basis ($86.0K net income on $45.8M latest-quarter revenue), suggesting operational or accounting transitions rather than sustainable profitability. Repeated open-market purchases during a sustained decline, combined with zero prior success timing buys at this ticker over a 10-month period, suggests either accumulation at perceived lows or a pattern of purchases that have not yet recovered.
