NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. (“Jerash Holdings”) is a corporation established under the laws of the State of Delaware on January 20, 2016. Jerash Holdings is a parent holding company with no operations.

Global Trend Investment Limited (“GTI”) was a limited company that was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on July 5, 2000 and was owned by two individuals and a BVI corporation, Merlotte Enterprise Limited, which was wholly owned by the Chairman of the Board of GTI and Jerash Garments and Fashions Manufacturing Company Limited (“Jerash Garments”). Previously, GTI was wholly-owned by Wealth Choice Limited (“WCL”), a BVI corporation, and the Chairman of the Board of Jerash Garments is also one of the beneficial owners of WCL and its subsidiaries. In September 2016, WCL transferred its ownership in GTI and its subsidiaries to Merlotte Enterprise Limited and an individual shareholder, and in October 2016, the individual shareholder transferred approximately 22% of its shares to another individual shareholder.

Jerash Garments is a wholly owned subsidiary of Jerash Holdings and was the wholly owned subsidiary of GTI prior to the Merger described below. Jerash Garments was established in Amman, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (“Jordan”) as a limited liability company on November 26, 2000 with declared capital of 50,000 Jordanian Dinar (“JOD”) (approximately US$70,500).

Jerash for Industrial Embroidery Company (“Jerash Embroidery”) and Chinese Garments and Fashions Manufacturing Company Limited (“Chinese Garments”) were both incorporated in Amman, Jordan as limited liability companies on March 11, 2013 and June 13, 2013, respectively, with declared capital of JOD 50,000 each. Jerash Embroidery and Chinese Garments were initially established under the name of Jerash Garments’ nominated agent but were in fact controlled and fully funded by Jerash Garments. On January 1, 2015, the nominated agent entered into an equity transfer agreement with Jerash Garments, in which the nominated agent agreed to transfer 100% ownership interests of Jerash Embroidery and Chinese Garments to Jerash Garments (the “Equity Transfer”). Subsequent to the Equity Transfer, Jerash Embroidery and Chinese Garments became wholly owned subsidiaries of Jerash Garments. Jerash Garments, Jerash Embroidery and Chinese Garments were effectively controlled by the same controlling shareholders before and after the Equity Transfer. Thus, this transaction is considered a reorganization of entities under common control. The consolidations of Jerash Embroidery and Chinese Garments have been accounted for at their carrying amounts as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Victory Apparel (Jordan) Manufacturing Company Limited (“Victory Apparel”) was incorporated as a limited liability company in Amman, Jordan on September 18, 2005 with declared capital of JOD 50,000, as a wholly owned subsidiary of WCL. Jerash Garments is the sole user of the land, building and equipment being held by Victory Apparel and had a lease agreement with Victory Apparel related to the use of these assets before GTI and its subsidiaries were acquired by WCL in March 2012. The land and building were not registered in Victory Apparel’s name, and Jerash Garments continued to hold the land and building in its name in trust for Victory Apparel. The declaration of trust was never registered with the Land Registry of Jordan, and on June 30, 2016, Victory Apparel and Jerash Garments dissolved the sale agreement, resulting in the property and equipment being owned free and clear by Jerash Garments. Victory Apparel has no other operating activities of its own and WCL intends to dissolve the entity.

Although Jerash Garments does not own the equity interest of Victory Apparel, our president, director and significant shareholder, Mr. Choi, is also a director of Victory Apparel and controls all decision-making for Victory Apparel along with our other significant shareholder, Mr. Lee Kian Tjiauw, who has the ability to control Victory Apparel’s financial affairs. In addition, Victory Apparel's equity at risk is not sufficient to permit it to operate without additional subordinated financial support from Mr. Choi. Based on these facts, we concluded that Jerash Garments has effective control over Victory Apparel due to Mr. Choi’s roles at both organizations and therefore Victory Apparel is considered a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10-05-08A. Accordingly, Jerash Garments consolidates Victory Apparel’s operating results, assets and liabilities.

Treasure Success International Limited (“Treasure Success”) was incorporated on July 5, 2016 in Hong Kong, China, whose 100% equity interest was registered under the name of the Chairman of the Board of Jerash Garments, with the primary purpose to employ staff from China to support Jerash Garments' operations. On October 31, 2016, the Chairman of the Board of Jerash Garments transferred his 100% equity interest in Treasure Success to GTI. Treasure Success was inactive until October 2016. Treasure Success was consolidated as a VIE before October 31, 2016. The transfer was accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (Continued)

On May 11, 2017, the shareholders of GTI contributed 100% of their outstanding capital stock in GTI to Jerash Holdings in exchange for an aggregate of 8,787,500 shares of common stock of Jerash Holdings. Immediately prior to this transaction, Jerash Holdings had 712,500 shares of common stock outstanding with a par value of $0.001 per share. Immediately following this transaction, GTI merged with and into Jerash Holdings, with Jerash Holdings being the surviving entity, as a result of which Jerash Holdings became the direct parent of GTI’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Jerash Garments, including its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Treasure Success. The transactions described above are collectively referred to as the “Merger.”

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under reverse capitalization accounting, GTI is recognized as the accounting acquirer, and Jerash Holdings is the legal acquirer or accounting acquiree. As such, following the Merger, the historical financial statements of GTI and its subsidiaries are treated as the historical financial statements of the combined company.

Consequently, the consolidated financial statements of Jerash Holdings reflect the operations of the accounting acquirer and a recapitalization of the equity of the accounting acquirer.

Jerash Holdings and its subsidiaries (herein collectively referred to as the “Company”) are engaged in manufacturing customized ready-made outerwear from knitted fabric and exporting produced apparel for large brand-name retailers..

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2018, its results of operations and its cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, as applicable, have been made. The unaudited interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Jerash Holdings, its subsidiaries and VIE. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

In accordance with accounting standards regarding consolidation of variable interest entities, VIEs are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. All VIEs with which the Company is involved must be evaluated to determine the primary beneficiary of the risks and rewards of the VIEs. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate the VIE for financial reporting purposes.

As described in Note 1, management of the Company has concluded that Victory Apparel is a VIE, and that Jerash Garments is considered the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the risks and rewards of Victory Apparel; therefore, GTI consolidates Victory Apparel for financial reporting purposes. Noncontrolling interests result from the consolidation of Victory Apparel, which is 100% owned by WCL.

The following table sets forth the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the VIE, Victory Apparel, which was included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets:

* Receivables from Jerash Garments are eliminated upon consolidation.

Victory Apparel did not generate any income but incurred certain expenses for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The loss was $8 and $2,818 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s most significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory reserve and useful lives of buildings and other property. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less from the original date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of cash used as security deposits to obtain credit facilities from a bank and to secure custom clearance under the requirements of local regulations. The Company is required to keep certain amounts on deposit that are subject to withdrawal restrictions. These security deposits at the bank are refundable only when the bank facilities are terminated. The restricted cash is classified as a non-current asset since the Company has no intention to terminate these bank facilities within one year.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company usually grants credit to customers with good credit standing for a maximum of 90 days and determines the adequacy of reserves for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis and historical collection trends. The Company establishes a provision for doubtful receivables when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. The allowance is based on management's best estimates of specific losses on individual exposures, as well as a provision on historical trends of collections. The provision is recorded against accounts receivables balances, with a corresponding charge recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Actual amounts received may differ from management's estimate of credit worthiness and the economic environment. Delinquent account balances are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. No allowance was considered necessary as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories include cost of raw materials, freight, direct labor and related production overhead. The cost of inventories is determined using the First in, First-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for excess or slow-moving items and makes provisions as necessary to properly reflect inventory value.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, reduced by accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense related to property, plant and equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of the assets, or in the case of leasehold improvements, the shorter of the initial lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements. The useful life and depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful lives of depreciation and amortization of the principal classes of assets are as follows:

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Property, Plant and Equipment (Continued)

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Factors which may indicate potential impairment include a significant underperformance related to the historical or projected future operating results or a significant negative industry or economic trend. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. If impairment is indicated, a loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the asset. The fair value is estimated based on the discounted future cash flows or comparable market values, if available. The Company did not record any impairment loss during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity's contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by reviewing its existing customer contracts and current accounting policies and practices to identify differences that will result from applying the new requirements, including the evaluation of its performance obligations, transaction price, customer payments, transfer of control and principal versus agent considerations. Based on the assessment, the Company concluded that there was no change to the timing and pattern of revenue recognition for its current revenue streams in scope of Topic 606 and therefore there was no material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption of ASC 606.

The table below presents the impact of applying the new revenue recognition standard to the components of total revenue within the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The Company evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and concluded that there were no differences in the pattern of revenue recognition:

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from product sales, which consist of sales of the Company’s customized ready-made outerwear for large brand-name retailers. The Company considers purchase orders to be a contract with a customer. Contracts with customers are considered to be short-term when the time between order confirmation and satisfaction of the performance obligations is equal to or less than one year, and virtually all of the Company’s contracts are short-term. The Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of promised goods to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations in contracts with customers upon shipment of the goods. Generally, payment is due from customers within 30 to 60 days of the invoice date, and the contracts do not have significant financing components. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are not an obligation of the Company.

All of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation satisfied at a point in time and the transaction price is stated in the contract, usually as a price per unit. The transaction price includes estimates of variable consideration that may result in allowances or discounts that are reductions in revenue when the estimates are not fully realized upon completion of the performance obligation. All estimates are based on the Company's historical experience, complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, and the Company's best judgment at the time the estimate is made. Estimates for variable consideration are reassessed each reporting period and are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur upon resolution of uncertainty associated with the variable consideration.

The contract assets are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as accounts receivable as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods. As of June 30, 2018, there was no revenue expected to be recognized in any future periods related to remaining performance obligations.

The Company has one revenue generating reportable geographic segment under ASC Topic 280 “Segment Reporting” and derives its sales primarily from its sales of customized ready-made outerwear. The Company believes disaggregation of revenue by geographic region best depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows (see Note 12).

Shipping and Handling

Proceeds collected from customers for shipping and handling costs are included in revenues. Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses, as a part of selling, general and administrative expenses. Total shipping and handling expenses were $134,882 and $124,951 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Income Taxes

The Company is subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled. Jerash Holdings was incorporated in the State of Delaware and is subject to Federal income tax in the United States of America. GTI was incorporated in the BVI and is not subject to income taxes under the current laws of BVI. Treasure Success was registered in Hong Kong and has no operating profit for current tax liabilities. Jerash Garments, Jerash Embroidery, Chinese Garments and Victory Apparel are subject to the regulations of the Income Tax Department in Jordan. The corporate income tax rate is 14% for the industrial sector. In accordance with the Investment Encouragement Law, Jerash Garments' export sales to overseas customers are entitled to a 100% income tax exemption for a period of 10 years commencing at the first day of production. This exemption has been extended for 5 years until December 31, 2018. Jerash Garments can apply for further extension of the tax exemption upon expiration. The estimated tax savings as a result of the tax exemption of Jerash Garments totaled $425,539 and $504,675 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Per share effect of the tax exemption was $0.04 and $0.05 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Local sales of Jerash Garments are subject to income tax at a fixed rate of 14%. No tax provision was provided for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 since there was no net income generated from local sales.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the Company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Under this accounting standard, the effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred income taxes were immaterial, and accordingly, no deferred tax assets or liabilities were recognized as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018.

ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This interpretation requires that an entity recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Jordan income tax returns prior to 2015 are not subject to examination by any applicable tax authorities.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. Under the provisions of the Tax Act, the U.S. corporate tax rate decreased from 35% to 21%. As the Company has a March 31 fiscal year-end, the lower corporate income tax rate will be phased in, resulting in a U.S. statutory federal rate of approximately 31.55% for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, and 21% for subsequent fiscal years. Additionally, the Tax Act imposes a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of historical earnings of foreign subsidiaries, and future foreign earnings are subject to U.S. taxation. The change has caused the Company to record one-time income tax payable to be paid over 8 years.

The Company has evaluated the impacts of the new Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) tax rules provision of the Tax Act and the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company’s measurement of its deferred taxes (the “deferred method”). The Company has selected the period cost method as its accounting policy with respect to the new GILTI tax rules.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar and the Company and its subsidiaries use the Jordanian Dinar (“JOD”) as their functional currency, except for Treasure Success, which uses the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”) as its functional currency. The assets and liabilities of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, equity accounts have been translated into U.S. dollars at historical rates, and revenue and expenses have been translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. Cash flows are also translated into U.S. dollars at average translation rates for the periods. Therefore, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

The value of the JOD against U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in Jordan’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the JOD may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of reporting in U.S. dollars. The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in creating the consolidated financial statements in this report:

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures compensation expense for stock-based awards to employees, non-employee contractors and directors based upon the awards’ initial grant-date fair value. The estimated grant-date fair value of the award is recognized as expense over the requisite service period using the straight-line method. The fair value of awards to non-employees is then marked-to-market each reporting period until vesting criteria are met.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock warrants using the Black-Scholes model. This model is affected by the Company's stock price on the date of the grant as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include the expected term of the warrant, the expected risk-free rates of return, the expected volatility of the Company's common stock, and the expected dividend yield, each of which is more fully described below. The assumptions for the expected term and the expected volatility are the two assumptions that significantly affect the grant date fair value.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Earnings per Share

The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from the translation of the financial statements expressed in JOD or HKD to U.S. dollars is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

The Company considers the recorded value of its financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash, including restricted cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, due from related parties, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other payables, income tax payable and credit facilities to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 based upon the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

Concentrations and Credit Risk

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. As of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, $2,788,427 and $4,192,448 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in Jordan, where there currently is no rule or regulation requiring such financial institutions to maintain insurance to cover bank deposits in the event of bank failure. As of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, $10,108,271 and $4,402,910 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in Hong Kong, which are insured by the Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board subject to certain limitations. While management believes that these financial institutions are of high credit quality, it also continually monitors their credit worthiness. As of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, $32,677 and $2,472 of the Company’s cash was on deposit in the United States and are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Concentrations and Credit Risk (Continued)

Credit risk (Continued)

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and derived from revenue earned from customers, and therefore are exposed to credit risk. The risk is mitigated by the Company's assessment of its customers' creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

Customer and vendor concentration risk

Prior to August 2016, substantially all of the Company’s sales were made to end-customers, which are located primarily in the United States (see Note 12) through its affiliate (see Note 9). Thereafter, the Company began selling directly to its customers. The Company’s operating results could be adversely affected by U.S. government policy on exporting business, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, and change of local market conditions. The Company has a concentration of its revenues and purchases with specific customers and suppliers. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, two end-customers accounted for 91% and 8%, respectively of total revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, two end-customers accounted for 82% and 11%, respectively of total revenue. As of June 30, 2018, two customers accounted for 91% and 8% of the total accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, two customers accounted for 57% and 22% of the total accounts receivable balance, respectively. 

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company purchased approximately 30% and 13% of its raw materials from two major suppliers. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company purchased approximately 92% of its raw materials from one supplier. As of June 30, 2018, accounts payable to the two major suppliers accounted for 23% and 14% of the total accounts payable balance. As of March 31, 2018, there was a net prepaid balance to the major supplier.

A loss of any of these customers or suppliers could adversely affect the operating results or cash flows of the Company.

Risks and Uncertainties

The principal operations of the Company are located in Jordan. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by political, economic, and legal environments in Jordan, as well as by the general state of the Jordanian economy. The Company’s operations in Jordan are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political, regulatory and social conditions in Jordan. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

As disclosed in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Revenue Recognition above, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) effective April 1, 2018 using the retrospective transition method. This new accounting standard outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. This standard supersedes existing revenue recognition requirements and eliminates most industry-specific guidance from U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the new accounting standard is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the adoption of this new accounting standard resulted in increased disclosure, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Adoption of this standard did not result in significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies, business processes, systems or controls, or have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows or related disclosures. As such, prior period financial statements were not recast.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted (Continued)

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” ASU No. 2015-11 changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business; less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 using a prospective application. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This update addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based compensation transactions including: (a) income tax consequences when awards vest or are settled, (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, (c) a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis and (d) classification of excess tax impacts on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, which did not have a material impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The amendments requiring recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement will be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the impact to be material to the consolidated results of operations; however, such determination is subject to change based on facts and circumstances at the time when awards vest or settle.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet with a corresponding liability and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. For public business entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this revised guidance on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Scope of Modification Accounting,” which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements, provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. For all entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company does not expect that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 8 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Warrants issued for services

From time to time, the Company issues warrants to purchase its common stock. These warrants are valued using a Black-Scholes model and using the volatility, market price, exercise price, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield appropriate at the date the warrants were issued.

On May 15, 2017, Jerash Holdings issued warrants to the designees of the placement agent in the above private placement to purchase 48,600 units, with each unit consisting of one share of Jerash Holdings common stock and one warrant (with each such warrant being immediately exercisable for one-tenth of one share of its common stock at an exercise price of $6.25 per share for a period of five years from the issuance date), at an exercise price of $5.50 per unit. The fair value of these units was $107,990 and was included in offering costs of the private placement in May 2017.

On May 15, 2017, Jerash Holdings also issued a five-year warrant to purchase up to 50,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to a letter agreement with one of its board advisors.

Stock Options

On March 21, 2018 the board of directors (the “board”) of Jerash Holdings adopted the Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may grant various types of equity awards. 1,484,250 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Plan.

The fair value of each option is $3.24. Stock option activity is summarized as follows:

Total expense related to the stock options issued was $3,205,980 during the quarter ended June 30, 2018. There were no unrecognized compensation costs at June 30, 2018.

NOTE 9 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Borrowings under the Credit Facility, as defined below, with HSBC are collateralized by the personal guarantees by Mr. Choi and Mr. Ng Tsze Lun.

NOTE 10 – CREDIT FACILITIES

Pursuant to a letter agreement dated May 29, 2017, Treasure Success entered into an $8,000,000 import credit facility with HSBC (the “Facility Letter”). In addition, pursuant to an offer letter dated June 5, 2017, HSBC offered to provide Treasure Success with a $12,000,000 factoring facility for certain debt purchase services related to our accounts receivables (the “Factoring Agreement” and together with the Facility Letter, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Jerash Holdings, Jerash Garments, as well as two of the Company’s individual shareholders. In addition, the Credit Facilities require cash and other investment security collateral of $3,000,000. The Credit Facilities provide that drawings under the Credit Facilities are charged interest at the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate (“HIBOR”) plus 1.5% for drawings in Hong Kong dollars, and the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.5% for drawings in other currencies. In addition, the Credit Facilities also contain certain service charges and other commissions and fees.

Under the Factoring Agreement, HSBC also provides credit protection and debt services related to each of our preapproved customers. For any approved debts or collections assigned to HSBC, HSBC charges a flat fee of 0.35% on the face value of the invoice for such debt or collection. We may assign debtor payments that are to be paid to HSBC within 90 days, defined as the maximum terms of payment. We may receive advances on invoices that are due within 30 days of the delivery of our goods, defined as the maximum invoicing period.

The Credit Facilities are subject to review at any time and, in any event by May 1, 2018. HSBC has discretion on whether to renew the Facility Letter prior to expiration and the Company is currently negotiating an extension of the Facility Letter on similar terms. Either party may terminate the Factoring Agreement subject to a 30-day notice period. The Company is in the process of negotiating an extension to the Factoring Agreement on similar terms.

As of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, the Company had made $7,059,533 and $980,195 in withdrawals, respectively, under the Credit Facilities, which are due within 120 days of each borrowing date or upon demand by HSBC. As of June 30, 2018, $6,345,846 was outstanding under the Facility Letter and $713,687 was outstanding under the Factoring Agreement.

NOTE 11 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

NOTE 12 – SEGMENT REPORTING

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company's internal organizational structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements for details on the Company's business segments. The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. Management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operation results by the revenue of the Company’s products. The Company’s major product is outerwear. For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, outerwear accounted for approximately 99.3% and 99.7% of total revenue, respectively. Based on management's assessment, the Company determined that it has only one operating segment as defined by ASC 280.

NOTE 12 – SEGMENT REPORTING (Continued)

The following table summarizes sales by geographic areas for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

All long-lived assets were located in Jordan as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018.

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Rent Commitment

The Company leases two manufacturing facilities under operating leases. Operating lease expense amounted to $342,343 and $316,742 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company is currently evaluating the renewal of these leases.

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are as follows:

The Company has twenty-five operating leases for its facilities that require monthly payments ranging between $247 and $26,939 and are renewable on an annual basis.

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. The Company’s management does not expect any liability from the disposition of such claims and litigation individually or in the aggregate would not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

NOTE 14 – INCOME TAX

The Tax Act imposes a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of historical earnings of foreign subsidiaries, and future foreign earnings are subject to U.S. taxation. The change has caused the Company to record a one-time income tax payable to be paid over 8 years. The one-time transition tax was calculated using the Company’s total post-1986 overseas earnings and profits based on a rate of 15.5% for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and a rate of 8% for its other assets. The Company previously booked a provisional charge of $1.4 million related to the transition tax for all of its foreign subsidiaries, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of approximately $1.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2018. The income tax payable attributable to the transition tax is due over an 8-year period beginning in 2018. The Company revised its estimate of the impact of the transition tax, which resulted in $1,892,000 of transition tax due. Accordingly, the Company booked a current charge to income tax expense of $492,000. At June 30, 2018, $175,000  is reflected as Income tax payable in current liabilities while a noncurrent income tax payable of approximately $1.6 million attributable to the transition tax is reflected in "other liabilities" of the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Tax Act has significant complexity and our final tax liability may materially differ from provisional estimates due to additional guidance and regulations that may be issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and state and local tax authorities, and for the Company’s finalization of the relevant calculations required by the new tax legislation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “PSLRA”). All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to: any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements regarding the adequacy, availability and sources of capital, any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new products, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements may include the words “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” or “anticipate,” and other similar words. In addition to any assumptions and other factors and matters referred to specifically in connection with such forward-looking statements, factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those factors set forth in this Quarterly Report, particularly under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and subsequent reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and to inherent risks and uncertainties, such as those disclosed in this Quarterly Report. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law.

Notwithstanding the above, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), expressly states that the safe harbor for forward looking statements does not apply to companies that issue penny stocks. Accordingly, the safe harbor for forward looking statements under the PSLRA is not currently available to the Company because we may be considered to be an issuer of penny stock.

The information included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes included in this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on June 28, 2018. References to fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations refer to our fiscal years ending March 31, 2019, March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017, respectively.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017

The following table summarizes the results of our operations during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and provides information regarding the dollar and percentage increase or (decrease) during such periods.

(All amounts, other than percentages, in thousands of U.S. dollars)

Revenue. Revenue decreased by approximately $3.0 million or 14%, to $18.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $21.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2018. The decrease was mainly the result of deferred shipments attributable to the national holidays in Jordan for EID al-Fitr from June 15 to June 18, 2018 that affected our shipments and created backlog at the port of Aqaba the following week. We normally send our products to the port of Aqaba over weekends and freight forwarders designated by customers will effect shipments per customers’ instructions on Monday and Tuesday. Approximately $2.5 million of shipments scheduled to be shipped in June were shipped in early July due to the EID al-Fitr holiday.

The following table outlines the dollar amount and percentage of total sales to the Group’s customers for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”), March 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”), and for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

(All amounts, other than percentages, in thousands of U.S. dollars)

(1) Substantially all of our products are sold under The North Face brand that is owned by VF Corporation.

(2) Until August 2016, substantially all of our sales were to Ford Glory International Limited (“Ford Glory”) which then sold the products to the end customers. Ford Glory is 49% owned by Mr. Choi Lin Hung, our chairman, chief executive officer, president and a significant stockholder, through his wholly owned entity Merlotte Enterprise Limited (“Merlotte”) and therefore is considered an affiliate of the Company. Following August 1, 2016, there was a transition period for orders placed directly with Ford Glory during the remainder of fiscal 2017. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended June 30, 2018, none of our sales were made to Ford Glory and approximately 63.5% and 0% of our net sales for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 and for the three months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, were made directly to our customers with support of Ford Glory. During fiscal 2017, for sales orders received before customers successfully changed their vendor registrations to issue orders directly to us, we fulfilled the order for customers on behalf of Ford Glory, including inventory purchases and manufacturing. As customers now issue sales orders to us directly, support from Ford Glory was phased out during fiscal 2018 as we no longer rely on Ford Glory to receive sales orders. Our merchandising personnel now receive orders directly from our customers through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Treasure Success and Jerash Garments.

In fiscal year 2017, we depended on VF Corporation for sales through Ford Glory. In fiscal 2018, we also depended on a few key customers. Substantially all of our sales through Ford Glory in fiscal 2017, and independent of Ford Glory in 2018, were to VF Corporation. The following table outlines the dollar amount and percentage of our sales through Ford Glory for fiscal year 2017.

(1) Substantially all of our products are sold under The North Face brand that is owned by VF Corporation.

Revenue by Geographic Area

(All amounts, other than percentages, in thousands of U.S. dollars)

According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Jordan Free Trade Treaty, which became effective December 2001, all apparel manufactured in Jordan can be exported to the U.S. with free duty. This treaty provides substantial benefits to us by allowing us to compete and to expand our garment export business in the U.S.

The decrease in sales to the U.S. of approximately 15% in the three months ended June 30, 2018 was mainly attributable to the delay in shipments described above, which were destined for the U.S. in July 2018. Revenue from Jordan and other locations increased by approximately 128% and 86%, respectively, as they were less affected by the above-mentioned shipping delays.

Cost of goods sold. Following the decrease in sales revenue, our cost of goods sold decreased by approximately $2.8 million or 17%, to approximately $13.7 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to approximately $16.5 million for the same period in fiscal 2018. As a percentage of revenues, the cost of goods sold decreased by approximately 2% to 75% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 77% for the same period in fiscal 2018. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues was primarily attributable to improved production efficiency in the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we purchased approximately 30% and 13% of our raw materials from two major suppliers, Duck San Enterprise Co., Ltd and Universal Star Corporation. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company purchased approximately 92% of its raw materials from one supplier, Onset Time Limited.

Gross profit margin. Gross profit margin was approximately 25% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, an improvement of approximately 2% from 23% for the same period in fiscal 2018. The improvement in gross profit margin was attributable to enhanced production efficiency in the period. Gross profit decreased by approximately $192,000 or 4%, to $4.7 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $4.9 million for the same period in fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily a result of the decrease in revenue of approximately $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately 266% from approximately $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to approximately $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to the inclusion of stock based compensation of approximately $3.2 million for options granted to thirteen employees and consultants in the quarter ended June 30, 2018, increases in expenses to expand marketing and supporting functions in the Hong Kong office, expenses related to banking and finance functions, and legal and professional fees and compliance costs associated with our initial public offering (“IPO”), which closed in May 2018.

In accordance with the Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) adopted by the Company on March 21, 2018, a total of 1,484,250 share of common stock are reserved for issuance under the Plan for grants to management, key employees and consultants of the Company. On April 2, 2018, a total of 989,500 shares were granted to thirteen employees and consultants. These options have an exercise price of $7.00 per share of common stock and vested immediately. Based on the valuation with Black Scholes model as described in Note 8 of our financial statements, the value of each option is $3.24. The aggregate stock-based compensation in the three months ended June 30, 2018, was approximately $3.2 million. There was stock based compensation of approximately $117,000 related to the 50,000 warrants granted to a board observer in the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Other income (expense), net. Other income, net was approximately $5,600 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to other expense, net of approximately $6,300 for the same period in fiscal 2018. This increase in income was primarily due to the foreign currency exchange gain from converting Jordanian Dinars to U.S. dollars for financial reporting.

Net (loss) income before taxation. Net loss before taxation for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.5 million compared to net income before taxation of approximately $3.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease was mainly attributable to the $3.2 million of stock-based compensation reported in fiscal 2019 mentioned above, increases in expenses to expand marketing and supporting functions in the Hong Kong office, expenses relating to banking and finance functions, and legal and professional fees and compliance costs associated with our IPO, which closed in May 2018.

Taxation. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) imposes a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriation of historical earnings of foreign subsidiaries, and future foreign earnings are subject to U.S. taxation. The change has caused the Company to record a one-time income tax payable to be paid over 8 years. The one-time transition tax was calculated using the Company’s total post-1986 overseas earnings and profits based on a rate of 15.5% for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and a rate of 8% for its other assets. The Company previously booked a provisional charge of $1.4 million in fiscal 2018 related to the transition tax for all of its foreign subsidiaries, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of approximately $1.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2018. The income tax payable attributable to the transition tax is due over an 8-year period beginning in 2018. The Company revised its estimate of the impact of the transition tax, which resulted in $1,892,000 of transition tax due. Accordingly, the Company booked a current charge to income tax expense of $492,000. At June 30, 2018, $175,000 of current income tax is reflected as Income tax payable in current liabilities while a noncurrent income tax payable of approximately $1.6 million attributable to the transition tax is reflected in "other liabilities" of the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.4 million compared to $0 in the three months ended June 30, 2017. This increase is attributable to a $0.5 million charge relating to revising the estimated impact of the transition tax provision of the Tax Act, which amount is a true up to the provisional amount booked at March 31, 2018. The transition tax charge is offset by a $0.1 million tax benefit relating to the Company’s application of the estimated annual effective tax rate to the Company’s pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Net (loss) income. Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.9 million compared to a net income of $3.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2018. The loss was primarily attributable to the $3.2 million of stock-based compensation reported in fiscal 2019 mentioned above, increases in expenses to expand marketing and supporting functions in the Hong Kong office, expenses relating to banking and finance functions, legal and professional fees and compliance costs associated with our IPO, which closed in May 2018, and incremental provision for the Transition Tax mentioned above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are a holding company incorporated in the U.S. We may need dividends and other distributions on equity from our Jordanian subsidiaries to satisfy our liquidity requirements. Current Jordanian regulations permit our Jordanian subsidiaries to pay dividends to us only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Jordanian accounting standards and regulations. In addition, our Jordanian subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their respective accumulated profits each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. We have relied on direct payments of expenses by our subsidiaries (which generate all of our revenues) to meet our obligations to date. To the extent payments are due in U.S. dollars, we have occasionally paid such amounts in Jordanian Dinar (“JOD”) to an entity controlled by our management capable of paying such amounts in U.S. dollars. Such transactions have been made at prevailing exchange rates and have resulted in immaterial losses or gains on currency exchange.

As of June 30, 2018, we had cash of approximately $12.9 million and restricted cash of approximately $3.7 million.

Our current assets as of June 30, 2018 were approximately $50.3 million, and our current liabilities were approximately $10.4 million, which resulted in a ratio of approximately 4.8:1. Total equity as of June 30, 2018 was approximately $45.0 million.

We had net working capital of $40.0 million and $29.0 million as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

We have funded our working capital needs from our operations. Our working capital requirements are influenced by the level of our operations, the numerical and dollar volume of our sales contracts, the progress of execution on our customer contracts, and the timing of accounts receivable collections.

Credit Facilities

On May 29, 2017, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Treasure Success, entered into a facility letter (“Facility Letter”) with Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (“HSBC”) to provide credit to us. Under the terms of the Facility Letter, we have a total credit limit of $8,000,000. The Facility Letter provides us with various credit facilities for importing and settling goods from our suppliers. The available credit facilities as described in greater detail below includes an import facility, import facilities with loan against import, trust receipts, clean import loan, and advances to us against purchase orders. HSBC charges an interest rate of 1.5% per annum over LIBOR or HIBOR, as applicable, for credit related to the release of goods immediately on our documentary credit.

HSBC charges a commission of: i) 0.25% for the first $50,000, ii) 0.125% for the balance in excess of $50,000 and up to $100,000 and iii) 0.0625% for balance in excess of $100,000 and an interest rate of 1.5% per annum over LIBOR or HIBOR, as applicable, for credit related to trust receipts whereby HSBC has title to the goods or merchandise released immediately to us. HSBC has approved certain of our suppliers that are eligible to use clean import loans. HSBC charges a commission of: i) 0.25% for the first $50,000, ii) 0.125% for the balance in excess of $50,000 and up to $100,000 and iii) 0.0625% for balance in excess of $100,000 and an interest of 1.5% per annum over LIBOR or HIBOR, as applicable, for credit services related to clean import loans or release of the goods or merchandise based on evidence of delivery or invoice. HSBC will advance up to 70% of the purchase order value in our favor. HSBC charges a handling fee of 0.25% and an interest rate of 1.5% per annum over LIBOR or HIBOR, as applicable, for credit services related to advances.

The Facility Letter is collateralized by the guarantees of us and Jerash Garments, and the personal guarantees by Mr. Choi Lin Hung and Mr. Ng Tsze Lun. Jerash Garments is also required to maintain an account at HSBC for receiving payments from VF Sourcing Asia S.A.R.L. and its related companies. In addition, to secure the Facility Letter, we granted HSBC a charge of $3,000,000 over the Company’s deposits.

The Facilities are subject to review at any time and, in any event by May 1, 2018. HSBC has discretion on whether to renew the Facility Letter prior to expiration and the Company is currently negotiating an extension of the Facility Letter on similar terms. HSBC has discretion on whether to renew the Facility Letter prior to expiration. As of June 30, 2018, $6,345,846 was outstanding under the Facility Letter. Borrowings under the Facility Letter are due within 120 days of each borrowing date or upon demand by HSBC.

On June 5, 2017, Treasure Success entered into an Offer Letter - Invoice Discounting / Factoring Agreement and on August 21, 2017, Treasure Success entered into the Invoice Discounting/Factoring Agreement (together, the “Factoring Agreement”) with HSBC for certain debt purchase services related to our accounts receivables. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, we may borrow up to $12,000,000. In exchange for advances on eligible invoices from HSBC for our approved customers, HSBC charges a fee to advance such payments at a discounting charge of 1.5% per annum over 1-month LIBOR or HIBOR, as applicable. Such fee accrues on a daily basis on the amount of funds in use. HSBC has final determination of the percentage amount available for prepayment from each of our approved customers. We may not prepay an amount from a customer in excess of 85% of the funds available for borrowing.

HSBC also provides credit protection and debt services related to each of our preapproved customers. For any approved debts or collections assigned to HSBC, HSBC charges a flat fee of 0.35% on the face value of the invoice for such debt or collection. We may assign debtor payments that are to be paid to HSBC within 90 days, defined as the maximum terms of payment. We may receive advances on invoices that are due within 30 days of the delivery of our goods, defined as the maximum invoicing period.

The advances made by HSBC are collateralized by the guarantees of us and Jerash Garments, and the personal guarantees by Mr. Choi Lin Hung and Mr. Ng Tsze Lun. In addition, to secure the Factoring Agreement, we granted HSBC a charge of $3,000,000 over our deposits. If we fail to pay any sum due to HSBC, HSBC may charge a default interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum over the best lending rate quoted by HSBC on such defaulted amount.

The Company is in the process of negotiating an extension to the Factoring Agreement on similar terms. The factoring services are subject to review at any time and, in any event by May 1, 2018. Either party may terminate the agreement subject to a 30 days’ notice period. As of June 30, 2018, there were $713,687 outstanding under the Factoring Agreement.

Three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

(All in amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars)

Operating Activities

Net cash used by operating activities was approximately $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to cash used by operating activities of approximately $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in net cash used by operating activities was primarily attributable to the following factors:

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and there was cash provided by investing activities of $0.2 million in the same period in fiscal 2018. The net cash used in investing activities in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 were used in purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided in financing activities was approximately $14.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The cash inflow mainly resulted from the net proceeds of $8.9 million of the IPO, which closed on May 2, 2018, and the bank loans of $6.1 million under the bank facilities given to Treasure Success International Limited.

Statutory Reserves

In accordance with the Corporate Law in Jordan, the subsidiaries in Jordan are required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, based on net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Jordan. Appropriations to the statutory reserve are required to be 10% of net income until the reserve is equal to 100% of the entity’s share capital. This reserve is not available for dividend distribution. As our subsidiaries have already reserved the maximum required by law, they did not reserve any additional amounts during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

The following table provides the amount of our statutory reserves, the amount of restricted net assets, consolidated net assets, and the amount of restricted net assets as a percentage of consolidated net assets, as of June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Total restricted net assets accounted for approximately 0.16% of our consolidated net assets as of June 30, 2018. As discussed above, our subsidiaries in Jordan are required to reserve 10% of net profits until the reserve is equal to 100% of the subsidiary’s share capital. Our subsidiaries have already reserved the maximum amount required. We believe the potential impact of such restricted net assets on our liquidity is limited.

Capital Expenditures

We had capital expenditures of approximately $0.5 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, for purchases of equipment in connection with our business activities and increase of capacity. Additions in plant and machinery amounted to approximately $0.4 million and approximately $92,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and additions to leasehold improvements amounted to approximately $46,000 and $72,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively.

In 2015, we commenced a project to build a 4.844 square foot workshop in the Tafilah Governorate of Jordan, which will primarily be used as a sewing workshop for Jerash Garments. This project is expected to cost $230,000 and is expected to be completed in calendar year 2018. There is another project for the construction of a 53.820 square foot workshop in Al-Hasa County in the Tafilah governorate of Jordan, which is expected to be completed by the middle of calendar year 2019.

We project that we will use an aggregate of approximately $3.1 million to fund our capital expenditures for fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2020 for further enhancement of production capacity to meet future sales growth. We expect that our capital expenditures will increase in the future as our business continues to develop and expand. We have used cash generated from our subsidiaries’ operations to fund our capital commitments in the past and anticipate using such funds and proceeds received from our expected initial public offering to fund capital expenditure commitments in the future.

Off-balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as shareholders’ equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted by the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and any related disclosures. Although there were no material changes made to the accounting estimates and assumptions in the past three years, we continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from our expectations as a result of changes in our estimates.

We believe that the following accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue recognition

Revenue Recognition for Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance which provided a single, comprehensive accounting model for revenue arising from contracts with customers. This guidance was revised and clarified through supplemental adoption guidance subsequent to May 2014. This new revenue recognition guidance superseded most of the prior revenue recognition guidance, which specified that revenue should be recognized when risks and rewards are transferred to a customer. Under the new guidance, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods and services pursuant to a five-step approach: (1) identify the contracts with the customer; (2) identify the separate performance obligations in the contracts; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied. The new guidance also requires additional disclosures about the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments.

Pursuant to ASC 606 and ASC 270-10-50-1A, we have conducted an analysis for each of our customers with the five-step approach that has been reviewed by our audit committee. We derive all of our revenue through the supply of apparel products to our customers. We normally receive purchase orders from customers for the supply of apparel products with specifications provided by customers to them at a specific quantity to a specific location on or before a specific date. Purchase orders are contracts between our Company and the customers. Performance obligations include to deliver a stated quantity of a specific product in acceptable quality (with style number, product description and color) to a specific location in accordance to the shipping term on or before a specific date detailed on a purchase order.

Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the purchase orders with our customers are satisfied. Our performance obligations generally consist of delivering our products to a specific location designated by the customers on purchase orders. Control of the products is generally transferred upon delivering the products to customers based on shipping terms mostly free on board shipping point. Once control is transferred to the customers, we have completed our performance obligations related to the contract. After completion of our performance obligation, we have an unconditional right to consideration as outlined in the purchase orders determined by the shipped quantity and the unit price.

We offer credit terms to our customers. Receivables are recognized when revenue is recognized. Our receivables resulting from contracts with our customers are typically 45 to 60 days from sailing date from shipping point in accordance with established credit terms. Most of our performance obligations under terms of our contracts with customers have an expected original duration of one year or less. Before the performance obligations are fulfilled, we maintain costs of the products related to purchase orders in our inventory. Both inventory values as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2108, were approximately $20 million.

Receivables resulted from sales revenue recognition as of June 30, 2018 was $13.2 million, with an increase of $8.0 million comparing to $5.2 million as of March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales revenue recognized in the month of June 2018, after completion of our performance obligations, with a credit term of 45 to 60 days from sailing dates granted to our customer. We did not have any business combinations in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that might cause significant changes in contract assets and contract balances, nor was there any impairment of contract assets. There was also no change in time frame for a right to consideration to become unconditional or any change in the time frame for a performance obligation to be satisfied.

The new guidance does not affect the methodology we have been adopting to recognize revenue in previous fiscal years and thus there was no adjustment for the cumulative effect of applying the guidance to retained earnings for compliance with the guidance.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company usually grants credit to customers with good credit standing with a maximum of 90 days and determines the adequacy of reserves for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis and historical collection trends. The Company establishes a provision for doubtful receivables when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. The allowance is based on management's best estimates of specific losses on individual exposures, as well as a provision on historical trends of collections. The provision is recorded against accounts receivables balances, with a corresponding charge recorded in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Actual amounts received may differ from management's estimate of credit worthiness and the economic environment. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. No allowance was considered necessary as of June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018.
