FAIRFIELD, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / August 5, 2020 / Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. (NASDAQ:JRSH) (the "Company" or "Jerash"), a producer of high-quality textile goods for leading global brands, today announced that its board of directors approved the payment of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend is payable on or about August 24, 2020, to stockholders of record as of August 17, 2020. The Company will report its fiscal first quarter results on August 13, 2020.
"Our steady quarterly dividend reflects the strength of Jerash's business through the COVID-19 pandemic," said Sam Choi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Revenue recovered more rapidly than anticipated from the shelter-in-place orders, declining just 17% year-over-year in the June quarter, and we remained profitable at the net income line. Customers have steadily reinstated orders since April, including a notable increase in volume with new customers won in 2020. We believe this reflects the importance of Jerash's duty-free import status in reducing cost of goods while maintaining high quality. Jerash also is actively moving forward with entry into the personal protective equipment (PPE) market for both international and US customers, including shipments of initial orders."
Fiscal First Quarter 2021 Results Release Date
The Company also announced today that it will report earnings results for its fiscal first quarter, ended June 30, 2020, on August 13, 2020 before the market opens.
