The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Mark Smith - Lake Street Capital Markets - Analyst : Excellent. This might be a little redundant as you guys talked about some of this but management is all relatively new here, so I'm curious just if you guys can talk about what made Lakeland attractive to you. Why Lakeland?

Question: Mark Smith - Lake Street Capital Markets - Analyst : Excellent. I -- as we discussed the company today, I kind of want to split it into kind of the two major segments of Fire and Industrial, and want to start in Industrial and dig in a little bit more here. As we look at where the business stands today, what does this business entail? What changes are being made and what opportunities do you see in the Industrial segment today?

Question: Mark Smith - Lake Street Capital Markets - Analyst : Perfect. And within Industrial, you guys talked about, you're really kind of driving the sales cycle here rather than just waiting for events to happen to drive it. But I'm curious, do things like avian flu present opportunities or are there other things that investors should be looking at that maybe could drive mental growth?

Question: Mark Smith - Lake Street Capital Markets - Analyst : Perfect. As we think about kind of headlines and recent events, I do want to ask, as we look at current government budget cuts, kind of if there's any change in the outlook on your business, if you're seeing any of this, or if municipality budgets are holding up well for where you sell your products.
