NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Operating results for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2024.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Jerash Holdings, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and two non-wholly owned subsidiaries.

 

Non-wholly owned subsidiaries are entities that the reporting parent entity does not own equity interests in full. Noncontrolling interest is evaluated with a depiction of the portion of a non-wholly owned subsidiary’s net assets, net income, and net comprehensive income that is attributable to holders of equity-classified ownership interests other than the reporting parent entity. As mentioned in Note 1, the Company holds 51% of equity interest in J&B and Jerash Newtech through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Treasure Success. The Company consolidates J&B and Jerash Newtech and reports noncontrolling interest to reflect the portion of their equity that is not attributable to the Company as the controlling shareholder. As of December 31, 2023, noncontrolling interest was $93,738.

 

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

 

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 consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash

 

The Company’s cash consists of cash on hand and cash deposited in financial institutions. 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 December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, 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 customs clearance, labor import requirements, and other 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 current asset if the Company intends to terminate these bank facilities within one year, and as a non-current asset if otherwise.

 

Accounts Receivable, Net

 

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for credit loss. The Company usually grants extended payment terms to customers with good credit standing and determines the adequacy of reserves for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis and historical collection trends.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

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 method. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for excess or slow-moving items and makes provisions as necessary to properly reflect inventory value.

 

Advance to Suppliers, Net

 

Advance to suppliers consists of balances paid to suppliers for services or materials purchased that have not been provided or received. Advance to suppliers for services and materials is short-term in nature. Advance to suppliers is reviewed periodically to determine whether its carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers the assets to be impaired if the performance by the suppliers becomes doubtful. At each reporting date, the Company generally determines the adequacy of allowance for credit losses by evaluating all available information, and then records specific allowances for those advances based on the specific facts and circumstances.

 

Credit Loss

 

On April 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” by using a modified retrospective transition method, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss methodology. The expected credit loss impairment model requires the entity to recognize its estimate of expected credit losses for affected financial assets using an allowance for credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company’s account receivables, advances to suppliers, and other receivables which are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets line item in the balance sheet are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. The Company measures expected credit losses of account receivables, advances to suppliers, and other receivables, on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Company makes estimates of expected credit and collectability trends for the allowance for credit losses based upon assessment of various factors, including historical experience, the age of the receivables, credit-worthiness of the customers and other debtors, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from the customers and other debtors. The Company also provides specific provisions for allowance when facts and circumstances indicate that the receivable is unlikely to be collected.

 

Expected credit losses are included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.

 

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:

 

   Useful life
Land  Infinite
Property and buildings  15-25 years
Equipment and machinery  3-5 years
Office and electronic equipment  3-5 years
Automobiles  5 years
Leasehold improvements  Lesser of useful life and lease term

 

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 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Construction in Progress

 

Construction in Progress (“CIP”) is recorded at cost for property, plant, and equipment where the asset is in construction or development. CIP accumulates cost of construction and transaction costs involved in the progress of acquiring the materials for construction or development. The Company does not commence depreciating the asset in CIP account because the asset has not yet been placed in service. Once an asset is placed in service, all costs associated with the asset that are recorded in the CIP account are transferred to property, plant, and equipment for the asset.

 

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 relative 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 nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Asset Acquisition

 

An asset acquisition is an acquisition of an asset, or a group of assets, that does not meet the definition of a business, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single or group of similar, identifiable assets. Asset acquisitions are accounted for by using the cost accumulation model, whereby the cost of the acquisition, including certain transaction costs, is allocated to the assets acquired on a relative fair value basis. Determining and valuing intangible assets requires judgment.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill is not amortized. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the carrying amount of goodwill was $499,282. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or in interim periods if indicators of potential impairment exist, based on the one reporting unit. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. When performing the quantitative impairment test, the Company compares the fair value of its only reporting unit with the carrying amounts. The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The Company concluded that no impairment of its goodwill occurred for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

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 and PPE. 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. 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 seven to 150 days of the invoice date. The contracts do not have significant financing components. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight from Jordan export dock are not an obligation of the Company. Returns and allowances are not a significant aspect of the revenue recognition process as historically they have been immaterial.

 

The Company also derives revenue rendering cutting and making services to other apparel vendors who subcontract order to the Company. Revenue is recognized when the service is rendered. 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. 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. Historically, sales returns have not significantly impacted the Company’s revenue.

 

The Company does not have any contract assets since the Company has an unconditional right to consideration when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and payment from customers is not contingent on a future event. The Company had contract liabilities of $905 and $928,393 as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there was no revenue recognized from performance obligations related to prior periods. As of December 31, 2023, $905 deferred revenue was expected to be recognized within fiscal year 2024. All the receipts in advance as of March 31, 2023 were revenue recognized for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

 

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 15—Segment Reporting”).

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Shipping and Handling

 

Proceeds collected from customers for shipping and handling costs are included in revenue. 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 $380,696 and $573,249 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Total shipping and handling expenses were $1,479,715 and $1,449,052 for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Income and Sales 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 and Jerash Supplies are incorporated/formed in the State of Delaware and are subject to federal income tax in the United States of America. Treasure Success, Ever Winland, J&B, and Jerash Newtech are registered in Hong Kong and are subject to profit tax in Hong Kong. Jiangmen Treasure Success is incorporated in China and is subject to corporate income tax in China. Jerash Garments, Jerash Embroidery, Chinese Garments, Paramount, Jerash The First, MK Garments, and Kawkab Venus are subject to income tax in Jordan, unless an exemption is granted. In accordance with Development Zone law, Jerash Garments and its subsidiaries were subject to corporate income tax in Jordan at a rate of 18% or 20% plus a 1% social contribution starting from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. Effective January 1, 2023, the income tax rate increased to 19% or 20%, plus a 1% social contribution.

 

Jerash Garments and its subsidiaries are subject to local sales tax of 16% on purchases. Jerash Garments was granted a sales tax exemption from the Jordanian Investment Commission for the period from June 1, 2015 to June 1, 2018 that allowed Jerash Garments to make purchases with no sales tax charge. The exemption has been extended to February 5, 2024.

 

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.

 

ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This interpretation requires that an entity recognize 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 comprehensive income. No significant uncertainty in tax positions relating to income taxes was incurred during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar (“US$” or “$”). The Company uses JOD in Jordan companies, HKD in Treasure Success, Ever Winland, J&B, and Jerash Newtech, and Chinese Yuan (“CNY”) in Jiangmen Treasure Success as the functional currency of each above-mentioned entity. The assets and liabilities of the Company have been translated into US$ using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, equity accounts have been translated at historical rates, and revenue and expenses have been translated into US$ using average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. Cash flows are also translated 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 or 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 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as incurred, and the total amount of transaction gains and losses were immaterial for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

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

 

    December 31,
2023
    March 31,
2023
 
Period-end spot rate   US$1=JOD0.7090    US$1=JOD0.7090 
    US$1=HKD7.8081    US$1=HKD7.8496 
    US$1=CNY7.0698    US$1=CNY6.8666 
Average rate   US$1=JOD0.7090    US$1=JOD0.7090 
    US$1=HKD7.8254    US$1=HKD7.8383 
    US$1=CNY7.1484    US$1=CNY6.8506 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company measures compensation expense for stock-based awards based on 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 Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a 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 option, expected risk-free rates of return, the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, and expected dividend yield, each of which is more fully described below. The assumptions for the expected term and expected volatility are the two assumptions that significantly affect the grant date fair value.

 

  Expected Term: the expected term of a warrant or a stock option is the period of time that the warrant or a stock option is expected to be outstanding.

 

  Risk-free Interest Rate: the Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes model on the implied yield at the grant date of the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issued with an equivalent term to the stock-based award being valued. Where the expected term of a stock-based award does not correspond with the term for which a zero-coupon interest rate is quoted, the Company uses the nearest interest rate from the available maturities.

 

12

 

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

  Expected Stock Price Volatility: the Company utilizes the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock over the same period of time as the life of the warrant or stock option. When the Company’s own stock volatility information is unavailable for such period of time, the Company utilizes comparable public company volatility.

 

  Dividend Yield: Stock-based compensation awards granted prior to November 2018 assumed no dividend yield, while any subsequent stock-based compensation awards will be valued using the anticipated dividend yield.

 

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 (See “Note 14Earnings per Share”).

 

Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income or loss. The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in JOD or HKD or CNY to US$ is reported in other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of 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:

 

  Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

  Level 2 - Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

  Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

 

The Company considers the recorded value of its financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, bills receivable, other current assets, credit facilities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, income tax payables, other payables and operating lease liabilities to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 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 December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively, $5,605,645 and $7,264,247 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 December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, $297,868 and $172,939 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in China, respectively. Cash maintained in banks within China of less than CNY 0.5 million (equivalent to $70,723) per bank is covered by “deposit insurance regulation” promulgated by the State Council of the People’s Republic of China. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, $14,609,576 and $11,700,512 of the Company’s cash were on deposit at financial institutions in Hong Kong, respectively, 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 creditworthiness. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, $530,078 and $171,496 of the Company’s cash were on deposit in the United States, respectively, and are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.

 

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.

 

Advance to suppliers are typically unsecured and derived from deposit placed to suppliers to secure the quantity of raw materials and garments for production. The Company is exposed to credit risk in that the supplier will not deliver the required quantity to the Company. The risk is mitigated by the Company’s assessment of its production requirement and its suppliers’ creditworthiness and its ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances.

 

Customer and vendor concentration risk

 

The Company’s sales are made primarily in the United States. Its operating results could be adversely affected by U.S. government policies on importing business, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, and changes in local market conditions. The Company has a concentration of its revenue and purchases with specific customers and suppliers. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 63% and 13%, and 68% and 13% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, four end-customers accounted for 43%, 20%, 19%, and 10% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, two end-customers accounted for 57% and 18% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, three customers accounted for 40%, 22%, and 13% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, four customers accounted for 50%, 13%, 10%, and 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance, respectively.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased approximately 17% and 14% of its garments and raw materials from two major suppliers. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased approximately 13% of its garments from one major supplier. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the Company purchased approximately 28% of its garments from one major supplier. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, the Company purchased approximately 13% and 10% of its garments and raw materials from two major suppliers, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, accounts payable to the Company’s one major supplier accounted for 26% of the total accounts payable balance. As of March 31, 2023, accounts payable to the Company’s one major supplier accounted for 36% of the total accounts payable balance.

 

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, foreign currency exchange, and the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas. 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. 

 

Since the inception of the turmoil in the Middle East, the Company has been closely monitoring the situation and keeping its customers informed. Currently, production is ongoing as usual, with no changes to customer orders or commitments, and both ports that the Company uses for import and export, in Aqaba and Haifa, are operating normally. In order to provide flexibility, the Company has also began using the Port of Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates as an alternative route for raw material import since December 2023. However, in the event of any potential impact on the ports, the Company has prepared a contingency plan, approved by its major customers, to temporarily relocate production to alternate regions.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income or cash flow as previously reported.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” which will require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Subsequently, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, to clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are within the scope of lease accounting standards. Further, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11, and ASU 2020-02 to provide additional guidance on the credit losses standard. For the Company as an emerging growth company, the amendments for ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASUs is on a modified retrospective basis. The Company has adopted this ASU since April 1, 2023.

 

Except for the above-mentioned pronouncements, there are no new recent issued accounting standards that will have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations, and cash flows.

NOTE 7 – LEASES

 

The Company has 51 operating leases for manufacturing facilities, offices and staff dormitories. Some leases include one or more options to renew, which is typically at the Company’s sole discretion. The Company regularly evaluates the renewal options, and, when it is reasonably certain of exercise, it will include the renewal period in its lease term. New lease modifications result in measurement of the right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liability. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. ROU assets and related lease obligations are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term.

 

All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases and primarily include office space and manufacturing facilities.

NOTE 15 – 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 months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, outerwear accounted for approximately 88.8% and 94.1% of total revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, outerwear accounted for approximately 91.1% and 93.8% of total revenue, respectively. Based on management’s assessment, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment as defined by ASC 280.

NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Commitments

 

On August 28, 2019, Jiangmen Treasure Success was incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, China, with a total registered capital of HKD 3 million (approximately $385,000). On December 9, 2020, shareholders of Jiangmen Treasure Success approved to increase its registered capital to HKD 15 million (approximately $1.9 million). The Company’s subsidiary, Treasure Success, as a shareholder of Jiangmen Treasure Success, is required to contribute HKD 15 million (approximately $1.9 million) as paid-in capital in exchange for 100% ownership interest in Jiangmen Treasure Success. As of December 31, 2023, Treasure Success had made capital contribution of HKD 10 million (approximately $1.3 million). Pursuant to the articles of incorporation of Jiangmen Treasure Success, Treasure Success is required to complete the remaining capital contribution before December 31, 2029 as Treasure Success’ available funds permit. 

 

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 17 – INCOME TAX 

 

Jerash Garments, Jerash Embroidery, Chinese Garments, Paramount, Jerash The First, MK Garments, and Kawkab Venus are subject to the regulations of the Income Tax Department in Jordan. In accordance with the Investment Encouragement Law, Jerash Garments’ export sales to overseas customers were entitled to a 100% income tax exemption for a period of 10 years commencing on the first day of production. This exemption had been extended for five years until December 31, 2018. Effective January 1, 2019, the Jordanian government reclassified the area where Jerash Garments and its subsidiaries are to a Development Zone. In accordance with the Development Zone law, Jerash Garments and its subsidiaries were subject to income tax at income tax rate of 18% or 20% plus a 1% social contribution from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. Effective from January 1, 2023, the income tax rate raised to 19% or 20% plus 1% social contribution.

 

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. The Tax Act imposed tax on previously untaxed accumulated earnings and profits (“E&P”) of foreign subsidiaries (the “Toll Charge”). The Toll Charge is based in part on the amount of E&P held in cash and other specific assets as of December 31, 2017. The Toll Charge can be paid over an eight-year period, starting in 2018, and will not accrue interest. Additionally, under the provisions of the Tax Act, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, the foreign earnings of Jerash Garments and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. taxation at the Jerash Holdings level under the new Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) regime.

 

Interim income tax expenses or benefit is recognized based on the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based upon the tax rate expected for the full fiscal year applied to the pretax income or loss of the interim period. The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 was 14.2% and 38.6%, respectively, and differed from the effective statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0%, primarily due to GILTI adjustments, foreign tax rate differentials, and valuation allowance adjustments.

 

NOTE 18 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On January 4, 2024, DBSHK offered a revised credit facility to Treasure Success. Pursuant to the revised facility, DBSHK agreed to finance cargo receipt, trust receipt, account payable financing, and certain type of import and export invoice financing up to an aggregate of $5.0 million, with certain financial covenants. The DBSHK facility bears interest at 1.5% per annum over Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate for HKD bills and 1.1% to 1.3% per annum over DBSHK’s cost of funds for foreign currency bills.

 

On February 5, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the payment of a dividend of $0.05 per share, payable on February 23, 2024, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 16, 2024.

Revenue. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, revenue of the Company decreased by approximately $15.5 million, or 36%, to $27.5 million, compared to revenue of approximately $43.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2022. The decrease was primarily due to reduced shipments to some of our major customers in the U.S. and Hong Kong in the face of high inflation and high interest rates. In addition, some orders were delayed and shipped in the fourth quarter due to the logistics issues caused by the tension in the Red Sea. Raw material importation was disrupted, causing some curtailment in production at the end of the third quarter, but this situation has been resolved by establishing an alternate route using the Port of Jebel Ali in the United Arab Emirates.

 

The following table outlines the dollar amount and percentage of total sales to our customers for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Since January 2010, all apparel manufactured in Jordan can be exported to the U.S. without customs duty being imposed, pursuant to the United States-Jordan Free Trade Agreement entered into in December 2001. This free trade agreement provides us with substantial competitiveness and benefit that allowed us to expand our garment export business in the U.S.

 

The decrease of approximately 32% in sales to the U.S. during the three months ended December 31, 2023, was mainly attributable to fewer shipments, amid a high inflation environment being delivered to some of our U.S. customers. This decline was compounded by the unexpected tension in the Red Sea, which caused some delays in outbound shipments as well as inbound.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, aggregate sales to Hong Kong, Germany, Jordan, and other locations decreased by 49% from approximately $9.9 million to $5.1 million compared to the same period last year. This was due to fewer shipments delivered to the customers in those regions with lower economic growths.

 

Cost of goods sold. Following the decrease in sales revenue, our cost of goods sold for the three months ended December 31, 2023 decreased by approximately $14.2 million, or 38%, to approximately $23.1 million, from approximately $37.2 million for the same period in 2022. As a percentage of revenue, the cost of goods sold decreased by approximately 3% points to 84% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, from 87% for the same period in 2022. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to the higher proportion of shipments to one of our major customers in the U.S. that typically generate higher profit margin.

 

26

 

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we purchased 17% and 14% of garments and raw materials from two suppliers, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we purchased 28% of our garments from one major supplier.  

 

Gross profit margin. Gross profit margin was approximately 16% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, representing an increased by 3% points from 13% for the same period in 2022. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily driven by the higher proportion of shipments to one of our major customers in the U.S. that typically generate higher profit margin.

 

Operating expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 decreased by 9%, or approximately $0.4 million, to approximately $4.1 million, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower travel expenses of overseas workers and the write-back of approximately $121,000 from provision for doubtful debts, partially offset by a stock-based payment compensation of $0.2 million during this period, while there was none in the same period in fiscal 2023.

 

Other expenses, net. Other expenses, net were approximately $105,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to other expenses, net of approximately $112,000 for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease was primarily due to higher interest incomes from fixed deposits in banks, offset by the interest expenses arising from participating in the supply chain financing programs of a customer.

  

Income tax expenses. Income tax expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 were approximately $39,000 compared to income tax expenses of approximately $324,000 for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate mainly resulted from a tax refund of approximately $239,000 from our holding company, offsetting the higher proportion of the operating loss of a Hong Kong subsidiary and our holding company in our group profit and the increase of corporate income tax rate in Jordan from a combined rate of 19% to 20% or 21% since January 1, 2023. The effective tax rate was down to 14.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 26.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

 

Net income. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was approximately $232,000 compared to net income of approximately $891,000 for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease was mainly attributable to the lower sales to different geographic locations.

Revenue. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our revenue decreased by approximately $18.7 million, or 16%, to $95.6 million, from approximately $114.3 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. The main reason for the decline in revenue was that the inflationary environment resulted in fewer shipments to customers in the U.S., one of our main markets. This was partially compensated by the increase in sales to Germany and some other locations.

Sales to the U.S. decreased by approximately 15% during the nine months ended December 31, 2023, which was mainly attributable to fewer shipments to some of our major customers in the country.

 

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, aggregate sales to Hong Kong, Germany, Jordan, and other locations decreased by 23% from approximately $14.7 million to $11.3 million from the same period last year, as fewer shipments were delivered to the customers in those regions with lower economic growths during this period.

 

Cost of goods sold. Following the decrease in sales revenue, our cost of goods sold decreased by approximately $14.7 million, or 16%, to approximately $80.2 million, for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, from approximately $95.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. As a percentage of revenue, the cost of goods sold increased by approximately 1% point to 84% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 from 83% for the same period in fiscal 2023. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to our diversification in customer base with some orders with lower profit margin.

 

For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we purchased 13% of our garments from one major supplier. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we purchased 13% and 10% of our garments and raw materials from two major suppliers, respectively.

 

Gross profit margin. Gross profit margin was approximately 16% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, which decreased by 1% point from 17% for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily driven by a shift in customer mix with more orders that generate lower profit margin.

 

Operating expenses. Operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 decreased slightly by approximately $46,000, to approximately $13.0 million, compared to the same period in fiscal 2023. The slight decrease was primarily due to a decrease in travel expenses for overseas workers of approximately $660,000 and a write-back of approximately $188,000 from the provision for doubtful debt upon receipt of the amount, which was partially offset by an increase in stock-based compensation expenses.

 

Other expenses, net. Other expenses, net was approximately $571,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to other expenses, net of approximately $245,000 for the same period in fiscal 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher interest expenses arisen from participating in supply chain financing programs of certain customers, which was only partially offset by the interest income from fixed deposits in banks.

 

Income tax expenses. Income tax expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 were approximately $0.7 million compared to income tax expenses of $1.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate mainly resulted from the higher proportion of the operating loss of a Hong Kong subsidiary and our holding company in our group profit and the increase of corporate income tax rate in Jordan form a combined rate of 19% to 20% or 21% since January 1, 2023. The effective tax rate was up to 38.6% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 26.6% for the nine months ended December 31, 2022.

 

Net income. Net income for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 was approximately $1.1 million compared to net income of approximately $4.4 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease was mainly attributable to lower sales and profit margin following our diversification of our customer base.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. is a holding company incorporated in Delaware. As a holding company, we rely on dividends and other distributions from our Jordanian and Hong Kong 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 revenue) to meet our obligations to date. To the extent payments are due in U.S. dollars, we have occasionally paid such amounts in 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 but no other profit.

As of December 31, 2023, we had cash of approximately $19.6 million and restricted cash of approximately $1.6 million. Compared to cash of approximately $17.8 million and restricted cash of approximately $1.6 million as of March 31, 2023, the increase in total cash was mainly a result of a net profit of approximately $1.1 million and the conversion of inventory to collections, offset by dividends paid during the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

 

Our current assets as of December 31, 2023 were approximately $49.4 million and our current liabilities were approximately $8.9 million, which resulted in a ratio of approximately 5.5 to 1. As of March 31, 2023, our current assets were approximately $ 57.3 million and our current liabilities were $ 14.4 million, resulting in a ratio of 4.0 to 1.

 

The decrease in current assets was mainly due to a decrease in inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets.

 

The primary driver in the decrease in current liabilities was the decrease in accounts payable for raw material purchases, income tax payables and deferred revenue.

 

Total equity as of December 31, 2023 was approximately $68.2 million compared to $68.2 million as of March 31, 2023.

 

We had net working capital of $40.5 million and $42.8 million as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that cash on hand and cash generated from our operating activities will be sufficient to support our working capital needs for the next 12 months from the date this Quarterly Report is released.

 

Since May and October 2021, we have participated in supply chain financing programs of two of our major customers, respectively. The programs allow us to receive early payments for approved sales invoices submitted by us through the bank the customer cooperates with. For any early payments received, we are subject to an early payment charge imposed by the customer’s bank, for which the rate is Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a spread. The arrangement allows us to have better liquidity without the need to incur administrative charges and handling fees as in bank financing. Due to the rising interest rate, we have suspended our participation in one of the above supply chain financing programs.

 

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

  

DBSHK Facility Letter

 

Pursuant to the DBSHK facility letter dated January 12, 2022, DBSHK provided a bank facility of up to $5.0 million to Treasure Success.

The DBSHK facility bears interest at 1.5% per annum over Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate for HKD bills and 1.1% to 1.3% per annum over DBSHK’s cost of funds for foreign currency bills.

 

Capital Bank of Jordan Credit Facility

 

We received documents from Capital Bank of Jordan for a credit facility of $10 million, and entered into the credit facility on June 1, 2023 after reviewing the documents.

Nine Months Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

 

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

 

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

 

   Nine Months Ended
December 31,
 
   2023   2022 
Net cash provided by operating activities  $7,867   $9,858 
Net cash used in investing activities   (4,264)   (11,372)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities   (1,813)   1,469 
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and restricted cash   24    (296)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and restricted cash   1,814    (341)
Cash and restricted cash, beginning of nine-month period   19,412    26,583 
Cash and restricted cash, end of nine-month period  $21,226   $26,242 

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $7.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to cash provided by operating activities of approximately $9.9 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the following factors:

 

  a decrease in inventory of $16.7 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2023 compared to a decrease of $1.6 million in the same period in fiscal 2023;
     
  an increase in accounts receivable of $6.0 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2023 compared to a decrease of $5.5 million in the same period in fiscal 2023;
     
  an increase of advance to suppliers of $1.1 million compared to an increase of $4.7 million in the same period in fiscal 2023;
     
  a decrease of accounts payable of $3.4 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2023 compared to an increase of $1.1 million in the same period in fiscal 2023; and
     
  a decrease of net income to $1.1 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2023 from net income of $4.4 million in the same period in fiscal 2023.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $4.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to approximately $11.4 million in the same period in fiscal 2023. The net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended December 31, 2023 was mainly used in investment in property, plant, and machinery including the ongoing construction of a dormitory and factory expansion. The net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended December 31, 2022 also included the acquisitions of Ever Winland and Kawkab Venus for $7.3 million.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $1.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, which was dividend payments in the period. Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended December 31, 2022 was primarily net proceeds from short-term loans and was partially offset by dividend payments and share repurchases.

Statutory Reserves

 

In accordance with the corporate law in Jordan, our subsidiaries in Jordan are required to make appropriations to certain reserve funds, based on net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of 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. Jiangmen Treasure Success is required to set aside 10% of its net income as statutory surplus reserve until such reserve is equal to 50% of its registered capital, in accordance with corporate laws in China. These reserves are not available for dividend distribution. The statutory reserves were approximately $0.4 million and approximately $0.4 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

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 December 31, 2023 and 2022. 

 

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

 

   As of December 31, 
   2023   2022 
Statutory Reserves  $411   $379 
Total Restricted Net Assets  $411   $379 
Consolidated Net Assets  $68,239   $71,070 
Restricted Net Assets as Percentage of Consolidated Net Assets   0.60%   0.53%

 

Total restricted net assets accounted for approximately 0.60% of our consolidated net assets as of December 31, 2023. As our subsidiaries in Jordan are only required to set aside 10% of net profits to fund the statutory reserves, we believe the potential impact of such restricted net assets on our liquidity is limited.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We had capital expenditures of approximately $4.3 million and approximately $11.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, for plant and machinery, the construction of a dormitory and factory expansion in both periods, and the acquisitions of Ever Winland and Kawkab in fiscal 2023. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, payments for additional plant and machinery, and construction of a dormitory and factory expansion, amounted to approximately $0.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, payments for additional plant and machinery, construction of a dormitory and factory expansion, the acquisition of Kawkab Venus, and the acquisition of Ever Winland amounted to approximately $0.6 million, $3.4 million, $2.2 million, and $5.1 million, respectively.

 

In 2018, we commenced another project to build a 54,000 square-foot factory in Al-Hasa County in the Tafilah Governorate of Jordan, which started operation in November 2019 with approximately 240 workers. This project was constructed in conjunction with the Jordanian Ministry of Labor and the Jordanian Education and Training Department. 

 

On August 7, 2019, we completed a transaction to acquire 12,340 square meters (approximately three acres) of land in Al Tajamouat Industrial City, Jordan, from a third party to construct a dormitory for our employees with aggregate purchase price JOD863,800 (approximately $1,218,303). Management has revised the plan to construct both dormitory and production facilities on the land in order to capture the increasing demand for our capacity. We are conducting engineering design and study on this project with the business growth potential brought about by the new business collaboration with Busana Apparel Group.

 

On February 6, 2020, we completed a transaction to acquire 4,516 square meters (approximately 48,608 square feet) of land in Al Tajamouat Industrial City, Jordan, from a third party to construct a dormitory for our employee with an aggregate purchase price JOD313,501 (approximately $442,162). We spent approximately $8.9 million in capital expenditures to build the dormitory and $0.2 million in dormitory’s kitchen, respectively. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, management decided to put on hold the construction project in fiscal 2021 to retain financial resources to support our operations, and also to wait and see how the global economy and customer demand recover after the outbreak. The preparation work resumed in early 2021 and construction work commenced in April 2021. The dormitory is expected to be completed and ready for use by the end of fiscal year 2024.

 

32

 

 

We project that there will be an aggregate of approximately $4.7 million and $12.6 million of capital expenditures in the fiscal years ending March 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively, 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 the operations of our subsidiaries to fund our capital commitments in the past and anticipate using such funds 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 our accounting policies involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and require us to make significant accounting estimates. Accordingly, the policies we believe are the most critical to understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are summarized in “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

See “Note 3—Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 15d-15(e)) are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2023, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of that date based on reasons set forth below.

 

33

 

 

In the annual report for fiscal 2023 filed on June 28, 2023, the management concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to certain control deficiencies that are deemed as material weaknesses, including:

 

- We failed to maintain effective controls over period-end financial reporting, specifically related to income taxes and the reconciliation of account level balances that resulted in errors; and

 

- There were ineffective information technology general controls in the areas of privileged user access and the review of user access over certain information technology systems that support our financial reporting processes.

 

Based on the above, we have implemented measures to address the weaknesses by:

 

- improving the checking and documentation of account level balance reconciliation;

 

- communicating with external professional consultant to strengthen our work and review on US tax issues; and

 

- rolling out a password control mechanism to exercise control and check on the work of the privileged user access for all information technology systems supporting our financial reporting processes.

 

While we believe the Company’s remediation efforts to-date have improved and will continue to improve our disclosure controls and procedures, remediation of the material weaknesses will require validation and testing of the operating effectiveness of our disclosure controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles. As the Company continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, management may determine additional measures are necessary to address control deficiencies or determine that it is necessary to modify the remediation plan described above. Management cannot provide assurance as to when the Company will remediate such weaknesses, nor can management be certain of whether additional actions will be required or the costs of any such actions.

 

Our remediation efforts are ongoing and are subject to continued management review supported by ongoing design and testing. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses, our management has concluded that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Other than our ongoing remediation efforts with respect to our disclosure controls and procedures, which extend to our internal control over financial reporting, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as the term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
