Lakeland Industries target cut to $14.50 due to margin and litigation risks despite margin gains.

Lakeland Industries remains a Buy, but the price target was lowered from $18.00 to $14.50 due to revised margin expectations and increased litigation risk from new PFAS multidistrict lawsuits. While gross margin improved to 37%, only half of that is structural, with a true margin of 34% after excluding a one-time tariff refund. Operating expenses rose to 32% of sales, pushing meaningful operating income further out to at least fiscal 2029. The increased legal risk has raised expected costs and impacted the valuation, prompting a more cautious outlook despite the company's potential upside.
