Management Commentary

“Our second quarter results provide further evidence that the underlying business is improving,” said Jim Jenkins, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are seeing momentum in Fire, continued expansion of our Fire Services platform and improving performance across several parts of Industrial. Just as importantly, we are becoming increasingly focused on where we want to invest, where we need to improve and where we need to simplify the business.

“Fire remains at the center of our growth strategy. We have built a differentiated head-to-toe product portfolio, and we are increasingly complementing those Products with Services. We believe bringing Products and Services together strengthens our customer relationships, creates recurring revenue opportunities and gives us a platform that can support sustainable growth over time. We are accelerating our investment in Fire Services, but we are going to do so with discipline. Our priority is to build density in attractive markets, generate appropriate returns on the capital we deploy, and create a Service network that strengthens the broader Fire business. We will continue to evaluate greenfield opportunities and small strategic acquisitions, but improving and growing our existing businesses remains our first priority.

“We are taking a much more deliberate approach to the portfolio. Businesses that are performing and where we see attractive opportunities for growth will receive our capital and management attention. Where returns have not met our expectations, we are taking action on leadership, cost structure and, where appropriate, our level of investment. Our objective is a simpler company with better operating leverage, stronger returns on invested capital, and a greater concentration of resources behind our best opportunities.

“Our priorities from here are straightforward: execute better, improve margins and operating leverage, reduce complexity, and convert more of our earnings into cash. We have made progress, but we are not satisfied with where we are today. We believe the actions underway across the portfolio, combined with the momentum we are seeing in Fire Products and Fire Services, can produce a more consistent, profitable and higher-return business. That is where our attention is focused,” Jenkins concluded.

Fiscal 2027 Second Quarter and Subsequent Operational Highlights

• Secured multiple tender and contract awards across 9 countries globally, spanning Fire, disaster response, law enforcement, industrial and utility markets. These included notifications of an intended award across multiple product categories under the UK National Fire Chiefs Council National Firefighter PPE Framework, with a total potential value of up to £220 million over seven years across all awarded suppliers, as well as significant contract wins across Asia-Pacific and Latin America.
• Expanded the Company’s certified Fire Products portfolio, including UL certification of the Wildland Glove to the NFPA 1950 (1977), 2025 edition standard for wildland and urban interface firefighting hand protection, while continuing certification and product development initiatives across structural and wildland firefighting PPE.
• Expanded and qualified manufacturing capacity across Fire Products and Critical Environments, including UL-certified production of Vanguard® structural turnout gear and full qualification of the Company’s new cleanroom with the first production lot achieving Class 1 cleanliness in independent SGS Helmke Drum testing. These investments increase capacity and supply-chain flexibility while allowing existing manufacturing capacity to be redirected toward higher-value Fire Products.
• Continued expansion of the Company’s higher-growth Fire Services platform, commencing start-up of a new Independent Service Provider location in Denver, Colorado, while expanding existing Service capacity to support growth in the Company’s recurring-revenue service business.

Growth was broad-based, with turnout gear up 5.5%, helmets up 41% and hoods up 66% on sustained strong demand across its certified head-to-toe Fire Products portfolio as customers transition to updated NFPA standards. Global tender wins accelerated during the quarter, with continued tender activity expected into the third and fourth fiscal quarters.

• Industrial revenue was $24.0 million, down 10.8% on a reported basis. Excluding the $3.7 million contribution from the divested HPFR and HiViz product lines in the prior-year quarter, Industrial revenue increased approximately 3%. The Company’s primary manufacturing facilities remain at capacity.
• U.S. sales were $21.3 million in Q2 FY27, a decrease of $0.8 million or 3.6% compared to $22.1 million in Q2 FY26.
• Europe sales, including Eagle, Jolly and LHD, were $12.4 million in Q2 FY27, a decrease of $2.7 million or 17.9% compared to $15.1 million in Q2 FY26, primarily reflecting a $3.1 million Jolly boot tender delivered to the Italian Ministry of the Interior in the prior-year quarter.
• LATAM sales were $4.1 million in Q2 FY27, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 4.7%, compared to $4.3 million in Q2 FY26.
• Asia sales were $4.7 million in Q2 FY27, an increase of $1.0 million, or 27.0%, compared to $3.7 million in Q2 FY26.

Gross margin was 37.0% compared to 35.9% in Q2 FY26 and 31.4% in Q1 FY27, benefitting from favorable a Fire Products mix and a $1.4 million net tariff refund received during the quarter.
• Operating expenses in Q2 FY27 were approximately $20.6 million, an increase of $1.4 million or 7.0%, compared to $19.3 million in Q2 FY26, reflecting approximately $0.5 million of Interschutz expenses and $0.6 million of expedited freight associated with a strategic inventory build, while foreign exchange remained a meaningful headwind, with currency losses of $1.3 million compared with $43 thousand in the prior-year quarter.
• Adjusted operating expenses excluding FX⁽¹⁾ in Q2 FY27 were approximately $16.2 million, an increase of $1.6 million or 11.1%, compared to $14.6 million in Q2 FY26.
• Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX⁽¹⁾ was approximately $2.7 million in Q2 FY27, compared to $5.1 million in Q2 FY26 and $1.1 million in Q1 FY27. Foreign currency losses were $1.3 million in Q2 FY27, compared to $43 thousand in Q2 FY26.
• Inventory ended the quarter at $74.9 million, down $2.8 million sequentially and $15.3 million year-over-year.
• As of July 31, 2026, there were borrowings of $24.9 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, with an additional $15.1 million of available credit under the Loan Agreement. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of July 31, 2026.

⁽¹⁾ Adjusted operating expenses excluding FX, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations are provided in the tables of this press release. 

“Net sales were $50.1 million in the second quarter. Gross margin improved to 37.0% from 35.9% in the prior-year quarter and 31.4% in the first quarter, while adjusted EBITDA excluding FX more than doubled sequentially to $2.7 million. Excluding $3.7 million of prior-year revenue from the High Performance FR and High Visibility product lines divested in March 2026, net sales increased 2.8%,” said J. Calven Swinea, Chief Financial Officer.

“Cash flow also improved materially, with $5.4 million of cash generated from operations during the first six months of fiscal 2027, a $15.1 million year-over-year improvement. Inventory declined $7.6 million from fiscal year-end, cash and equivalents increased to $17.9 million, and total debt declined to $28.7 million from $32.3 million at January 31, 2026.

“We also resolved the Monterrey, Mexico lease matter during the quarter, recording a $1.9 million gain on lease settlement and eliminating the remaining lease liability. Foreign exchange had a $1.3 million negative impact during the quarter, and we are evaluating appropriate hedging strategies to mitigate this risk going forward. We also recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $3.2 million related exclusively to the performance and revised outlook of LHD Germany. The impairment does not represent a cash outflow or affect our liquidity. The Company has taken actions to address the performance of LHD Germany, including leadership and organizational changes, and is executing a broader repositioning of the business focused on improving operating performance, cost structure and long-term returns. LHD’s operations in Australia and Hong Kong continue to perform well, and the impairment charge is not reflective of the performance of those businesses.

“We are focused on sustaining and expanding margins over the balance of fiscal 2027. The margin recovery processes we put in place are working. We now track manufacturing efficiency, revenue conversion and gross margin performance consistently by business, product line and region, and the sequential improvement in adjusted gross margin reflects that discipline. As production volumes improve, the North American inventory build converts to revenue, and recent tender wins and sales opportunities are delivered, we expect margin performance to continue to improve.

“Overall, the second quarter demonstrated sequential progress across revenue, gross margin, adjusted EBITDA and cash generation. With the Monterrey lease matter resolved, the divestiture behind us and a more focused portfolio, we believe we are entering the back half of fiscal 2027 with improving margin discipline and better visibility,” Swinea concluded.

Jenkins added, "Our priorities for the second half are straightforward: convert demand and backlog into revenue, continue improving gross margin, maintain expense discipline and simplify the areas of the business that are not producing acceptable returns. We believe the second half marks the beginning of our return to more consistent growth, although the cadence may vary from quarter to quarter. What remains is disciplined execution: delivering against the demand we see, completing the portfolio and cost actions already underway, and translating growth into stronger earnings and cash generation. Together, these efforts position us to enter fiscal 2028 with a more focused portfolio, a stronger cost structure and greater operating leverage.”

The financial data above includes non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Expenses. Management excludes from EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA all expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, Goodwill impairment, impairment of investment, and Other Income which is comprised of interest income and gains (losses) from equity method investments. For adjusted EBITDA management also excludes equity compensation, acquisition-related expenses, severance, restructuring and transformation costs, costs associated with our Mexican operations, PFAS litigation expenses, ERP Project related costs, start-up costs for new service locations, lease impairment charges, the gain on lease settlement and the gain on sale of certain assets. This press release also discusses (i) Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by GAAP net sales; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX, which is calculated by subtracting foreign currency losses from Adjusted EBITDA and (iii) Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA excluding FX by GAAP net sales.

Management excludes these items principally because such charges or benefits are not directly related to the Company’s ongoing core business operations. We use such non-GAAP measures in order to (1) make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s operations, both internally and externally, (2) guide management in assessing the performance of the business, internally allocating resources and making decisions in furtherance of the Company’s strategic plan, and (3) provide investors with a better understanding of how management plans and measures the business. The material limitations to management’s approach include the fact that the charges, benefits and expenses excluded are nonetheless charges, benefits and expenses required to be recognized under GAAP and, in some cases, consume cash which reduces the Company’s liquidity. Management compensates for these limitations primarily by reviewing GAAP results to obtain a complete picture of the Company’s performance and by including a reconciliation of non-GAAP results to GAAP results in its earnings releases. Non-GAAP financial measures are not alternatives for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures presented by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Additional information regarding the adjustments is provided below.

(1) Adjustments for Equity Compensation, which consist of non-cash expenses for equity awards granted and recognized over their respective service periods.

(2) Adjustments for Other Income, which consist primarily of interest income and gains/(losses) from dispositions of fixed assets.

(3) Adjustments for acquisition-related expenses included advisory fees, due diligence expenses, accounting fees and legal fees related to the Company's acquisitions.

(4) Adjustments for accrued employee severance, restructuring costs and transformation related costs which include expenses associated with strategic transformation initiatives and certification activities.

(5) Adjustments for costs for our Mexican operations consist of external services and legal fees associated with a property-related dispute with the landlord of our manufacturing site in Monterrey, Mexico.

(6) Adjustments for PFAS and shareholder litigation.

(7) Adjustments for the implementation of new ERP consisting of external services and employee-related expenses.

(8) Adjustments for start-up costs associated with new Independent Service Provider service locations.

(9) Adjustments for amortization of the step-up in basis for inventory acquired related to the Company's acquisitions.

(10) The Company recorded a gain on settlement of lease liability in connection with the lease for its Monterrey, Mexico manufacturing site during the second quarter of fiscal 2027.

(11) The Company recorded an impairment in the prior-year period primarily related to the right-of-use asset for the Monterrey, Mexico facility.

(12) The Company recorded an impairment of the remaining goodwill of the LHD reporting unit in Q2 FY27.

(13) The Company recorded a gain related to the sale of certain assets related to the HPFR and HiViz product lines in March 2026.
