Notice of 2023 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders and Proxy Statement

To our Stockholders:

Thank you for your support as a stockholder of Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. In fiscal 2023, we faced a challenging macroeconomic environment with high inflation and generally lower consumer confidence in our major markets in the U.S. and Europe. We managed to finish the year with annual sales of $138 million which was lower than fiscal 2022 by less than 4%. Our product and customer mix continued to evolve to adapt to the situation, and it impacted our margin from 19% in fiscal 2022 to 16% in fiscal 2023. Given the above, we continued to be profitable and reported a net income of $0.19 per share. In addition, we maintained our dividend payments of $0.20 per share to our stockholders over the year.

As we are growing our businesses with the new customers introduced in the past few years, including our first major European brand customer, we have also established a joint venture company with Busana Apparel Group, a prominent garment manufacturing group in Asia, to enhance our sales and marketing capability. The joint venture has been active in marketing with encouraging feedback from multiple branded customers. Furthermore, there are new initiatives through the joint venture in expanding our product categories which we aim to have realized in fiscal 2024. In July 2023, we entered into a memorandum of understanding with NTX Group, which is a technology provider of fabric dyeing facilities using much less water than traditional dyeing technologies. If the project crystallizes, it will bolster our competitiveness as a vertical set up with shorter lead time and lower logistics costs.

In fiscal 2023, we also completed the extension in our main factory building that allowed us to realign space allocation to optimize efficiency. Our new dormitory will be completed within fiscal 2024 with the addition of a kitchen and a canteen that provides more comprehensive and comfortable facilities for our workers.

Last but not least, we continue to be committed to be a socially responsible company by advancing our environmental, social, and governance goals. We have been reducing our carbon footprint by expanding solar panel installation to more production facilities and the new dormitory, setting up our sourcing team in Jordan to focus on developing new suppliers in the Middle East and Africa, and pursuing green projects like the proposed one with NTX Group. In addition, we believe in paying a living wage to our valued employees, creating a safe and rewarding work environment with opportunities for advancement, and providing access to employment for displaced or disadvantaged workers, including Syrian refugees through our initiatives with the United Nations, and local women through our collaboration with the Jordanian government.

For 2024, we anticipate business from new customers that we onboarded last year will grow while we continue to court other potential customers. We believe that the global trend of major brands migrating away from East Asia to duty-free countries, especially Jordan, will continue. Production for our joint venture business will start toward the latter part of fiscal 2024 and we are making final preparations as we speak. Despite the uncertainties stemming from global economic weakness, we are taking positive steps to diversify our customer base and product offerings. In addition, when our long-time customers, The North Face and New Balance, resume their growth, we are ready for it. We look forward to the year ahead and continuing to report our progress.

Best regards,

Recent Highlights and Achievements

We recently reported our financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) and other recent highlights, including:

•        revenue of $138.1 million, a decrease of 4%, primarily due to a decrease in export sales to two of our major U.S. customers which was not sufficiently replaced by orders from new customers and increase in shipments to other existing customers;

•        gross profit of $21.8 million, a decrease of 20%, primarily due to lower overall sales and increased proportion of sales to customers with lower gross margins;

•        gross margin of 16 percent, which decreased by approximately 3% points from 19% in fiscal 2022, primarily due to a lower proportion of export orders to our two major customers in the U.S. that typically generated higher profit margin;

•        net income of $2.4 million, representing a 69.4% decrease from approximately $7.9 million in fiscal 2022;

•        comprehensive income attributable to our stockholders of $2.2 million, or $0.17 per share, vs. $8.1 million, or $0.68 per share, last year; and

•        cash of $17.8 million and net working capital of $42.8 million at the end of fiscal 2023.

General Information About the Meeting and Voting

The Board of Directors of Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. (the “Board”) is using this Proxy Statement to solicit proxies from the holders of its common stock for use at the Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. 2023 annual meeting of stockholders and any adjournment or postponement thereof (the “Annual Meeting” or the “meeting”). The notice of meeting, this Proxy Statement, and the enclosed form of proxy card are first being mailed to our stockholders on or about July 28, 2023. In this Proxy Statement, we may also refer to Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. and its subsidiaries as “Jerash,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us.”

Proposal No. 1 — Election of Directors

Our Board consists of five directors, all of whom are nominated for re-election at the Annual Meeting to serve until the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has recommended each nominee for election to our Board.

Set forth below for each nominee for election as a director is a brief statement about the nominee’s age, principal occupation, and business experience, including any directorships with any other public companies, describing the specific individual qualities and skills of each nominee that contribute to the overall effectiveness of the Board and its committees. Each nominee has consented to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. Although we do not anticipate that any of the nominees named will be unable to serve if elected, the votes will be cast for a substitute nominee selected by the Board unless the number of directors to be elected has been reduced to the number of nominees willing and able to serve on our Board.

the board recommends the election of these nominees:

Nominee Information

Corporate Governance Practices and Policies

Board and Committee Independence

The Board determines whether each of our directors is considered independent. For a director to be considered independent, the director must meet the bright-line independence standards under the Nasdaq listing standards. The Board must also affirmatively determine that, in its opinion, each director has no relationship that would interfere with the directors’ exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the director’s responsibilities. In addition to the Nasdaq listing standards, the Board will consider all relevant facts and circumstances in determining whether a director is independent. There are no family relationships among any of our directors and executive officers. The Board has determined that the following nominees satisfy the independence requirements of Nasdaq: Ibrahim H. Saif, Bill Korn, and Mak Chi Yan.

Leadership Structure of the Board

The Board does not have a policy on whether the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board should be separate and, if they are to be separate, whether the Chairman of the Board should be a non-employee director or an employee. The Board believes that it should have the flexibility to choose this role in any manner that is in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders. Under our Bylaws, the Board of Directors may elect a Chairperson of the Board from among the directors or from among other officers as it may determine to preside at meetings of the stockholders and directors and to perform other duties as the Board may determine.

Currently, our Chairman of the Board, Choi Lin Hung, is also our Chief Executive Officer, President, and Treasurer. We believe that Mr. Choi’s leadership of the Company in this dual role is appropriate for the Company at this time because his involvement with the Company’s operations and business strategy provide the main focus for the Board. The Board does not currently have a lead independent director. The Board believes its current leadership structure is appropriate because Mr. Choi’s leadership ensures the Company maintains continuity as it grows as a public company and affords the Board access to Mr. Choi’s institutional knowledge of the Company.

Board Committees and Meetings

The Board held five meetings during fiscal 2023. No director attended fewer than 75% the aggregate number of all meetings of the Board of Directors and committees on which he or she served during fiscal 2023. All of the Company’s directors attended last year’s annual meeting of stockholders either in person or by conference call. The Company expects the directors to attend the Annual Meeting either in person or by conference call.

Board Committees

The Board has created three standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Board has adopted a formal, written charter for each of the committees under which each committee operates. The charters can be found in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations tab on the Company’s website at www.jerashholdings.com. As a matter of routine corporate governance, each committee reviews its charter and practices on an annual basis to determine whether its charter and practices are consistent with listing standards of Nasdaq.

Committee Composition

____________

C = Committee chairperson; X = Committee member

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) is composed of three independent directors: Bill Korn, who is the chairperson, Ibrahim H. Saif, and Mak Chi Yan. Each member of the Audit Committee is an independent director as defined by rules of the SEC and Nasdaq. In addition, the Board of Directors has determined that Bill Korn is an audit committee financial expert as defined by SEC rules.

The Audit Committee has the sole power and authority to select and engage independent auditors for the Company. The Audit Committee reviews with the auditors and with the Company’s management all matters relating to the annual audit of the Company. The Audit Committee held five meetings and several informal meetings over the phone in fiscal 2023.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) is composed of three independent directors: Ibrahim H. Saif, who is the chairperson, Bill Korn, and Mak Chi Yan.

The Compensation Committee has the power and authority to review and approve the remuneration arrangements for the Company’s executive officers, directors, and certain employees. The Compensation Committee also interprets and administers our employee benefit plans, including by selecting participants and approving awards under those plans. The Compensation Committee has the power and authority to form, and delegate authority to, subcommittees. The Compensation Committee held one meeting in fiscal 2023.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During the last completed fiscal year, Ibrahim H. Saif, Bill Korn, and Mak Chi Yan served as members of the Compensation Committee. Each member of the Compensation Committee is an independent director as defined by the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq.

Compensation Committee Report

The Company is not required to provide the compensation discussion and analysis since it qualifies as a smaller reporting company.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee”) is composed of three independent directors: Mak Chi Yan, who is the chairperson, Ibrahim H. Saif, and Bill Korn. Each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is an independent director as defined by the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, screening and recommending candidates for membership on the Board. Each year, prior to the annual meeting of stockholders, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends nominees to serve as our directors for the following year. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not hold any meetings in fiscal 2023.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Our Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of the Board, including with respect to cybersecurity risks. The Audit Committee receives reports from management on at least a quarterly basis regarding management’s assessment of risks to the Company.

In addition, the Audit Committee reports regularly to our Board, which also monitors our risk profile. The Audit Committee and the Board focus on the most significant risks we face and our general risk management strategies, while our management team coordinates responses to day-to-day risks.

Code of Ethics

We have a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our directors and executive officers, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer or controller. The Code of Ethics is publicly available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations tab on the Company’s website at

www.jerashholdings.com. We intend to post any amendments to or waivers from the Code of Ethics that apply to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions, on our website.

Anti-Corruption Policy

We have adopted an Anti-Corruption Policy that applies to all of our directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, agents, consultants, joint venture partners, and any other third-party representative that conducts business on behalf of the Company outside of the U.S. or interacts with non-U.S. government officials. This Anti-Corruption Policy sets forth our guiding principles to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and other anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws to which we may be subject, including the anti-corruption provisions of the Penal Code of Jordan. Our Anti-Corruption Policy is publicly available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations tab on the Company’s website at www.jerashholdings.com.

Nominating Process

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying, screening, and recommending candidates for membership on the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not yet developed a policy for selecting directors, including any specific minimum requirements or a diversity policy. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates recommended by stockholders in the same manner as it evaluates candidates recommended by Board members, officers, or search firms. To recommend a potential candidate to the Board, a stockholder must submit the recommendation in writing to Chief Financial Officer, Jerash Holdings (US), Inc., 277 Fairfield Road, Suite 338, Fairfield, NJ 07004, in the manner set forth in our Bylaws, as filed with the SEC. Stockholder nominations must be received no earlier than May 18, 2024 and no later than June 17, 2024 to be considered for our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. See “Other Important Information — Stockholder Proposals for the 2024 Annual Meeting” below for more information. Following the amendment and restatement of our Bylaws in July 2019, stockholders must follow specific requirements to recommend a nominee to serve as a director of the Company. These requirements, as set forth in the Bylaws, are designed to elicit the type of information regarding a director nominee who is proposed by a stockholder that would be comparable to the information reviewed for those nominees proposed by our management to best ensure that stockholder nominees are considered in the same manner by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Communications with Directors

Stockholders wishing to communicate with our directors may send a letter to: Jerash Holdings (US), Inc., 277 Fairfield Road, Suite 338, Fairfield, NJ 07004, Attention: Board of Directors. All correspondence sent to that address will be delivered to the appropriate directors by our Chief Financial Officer.

Director Compensation

The compensation of our directors is set by our Board of Directors and reviewed by the Compensation Committee at least annually. The Company does not pay any director who is also an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries for his or her service as director. In addition to reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with serving on the Board, in fiscal 2023 we paid our independent directors who served during that year compensation as follows:

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions

We review all relationships and transactions in which we and any of our directors, executive officers, or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether those persons have a direct or indirect material interest in the relevant transaction.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table provides information as of July 19, 2023, concerning beneficial ownership of our shares of common stock known to us to be held by (1) our named executive officers, (2) our directors, (3) our named executive officers and directors as a group, and (4) each person or entity we know to beneficially own more than five percent of our shares of common stock. The percentages of shares owned shown in the table below are based on 12,294,840 shares of our common stock outstanding as of the record date. The address for our executive officers is 277 Fairfield Road, Suite 338, Fairfield, NJ 07004.

____________

*        indicates less than 1%

(1)      Applicable percentages are based on 12,294,840 shares of common stock outstanding as of the record date. Beneficial ownership is determined under the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants and convertible notes currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding such securities but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, the Company believes that each of the stockholders named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock indicated as beneficially owned by them.

(2)      Includes (i) 62,900 shares of common stock directly held by Mr. Choi and (ii) 3,695,875 shares of common stock held indirectly by Mr. Choi through Merlotte.

(3)      Includes (i) 53,100 shares of common stock directly held by Ms. Yang and (ii) 206,750 shares of common stock held by Ms. Yang’s husband, Eric Tang.

(4)      Includes (1) 3,350 shares of common stock directly held by Mr. Lee and (ii) presently exercisable options issued to Mr. Lee to purchase 50,000 shares.

(5)      Mr. Choi as the sole member.

Section 16(a) Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires our directors and executive officers and those who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock with the SEC. You can view these reports on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, all of our officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners timely complied with the filing requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, except for Choi Lin Hung, Gilbert K. Lee, Wei Yang, and Ng Tsze Lun, who were late in filing their statements of changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4.

Matters Relating to the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

No accountant has been selected or recommended to our stockholders for election, approval, or ratification for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, as our management and the Audit Committee continue their evaluation. As a result, we do not expect representatives of Marcum LLP (“Marcum”), or any other independent accounting firm, to be present at the annual meeting, unless the Audit Committee determines to retain Marcum, or another independent accounting firm, for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 prior to the Annual Meeting.

Pre-Approval Policy

To date, Marcum has not performed any non-audit services for the Company. The Audit Committee intends to develop a pre-approval policy for all non-audit work performed by Marcum during fiscal 2024.

Fees

Audit Committee Report

Management is responsible for the Company’s accounting and financial reporting process. Our external auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the external auditors. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the external auditors. The Audit Committee discussed with the external auditors the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.

The Company’s external auditors also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the external auditor’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee discussed with the external auditors about the firm’s independence.

Based on the Audit Committee’s discussion with management and the external auditors and the Audit Committee’s review of the representation of management and the report of the external auditors to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board has approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023, for filing with the SEC.

Notice Regarding Delivery of Stockholder Documents

The SEC permits us to send a single set of annual disclosure documents to stockholders who share an address, unless you have instructed us otherwise. This “householding” process reduces the volume of duplicate information you receive and reduces our printing and mailing expenses. If you share an address with another stockholder and have received only one Notice, but you would prefer to continue receiving a separate Notice, you may request a separate Notice at no cost to you by writing to the Company at Jerash Holdings (US), Inc., 277 Fairfield Road, Suite 338, Fairfield, NJ 07004, or by calling (201) 285-7973. Alternatively, if you are currently receiving multiple Notices at the same address and wish to receive a single Notice in the future, you may contact us by calling or writing to us at the telephone number or address given above.

If you are a beneficial owner, your broker may deliver only one Notice to stockholders who have the same address unless the broker has received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. If you wish to receive a separate Notice, now or in the future, you may contact us at the address or telephone number above and we will promptly deliver a separate Notice. Beneficial owners sharing an address who are currently receiving multiple Notices and wish to receive a single Notice in the future should contact their broker to request that only a single Notice be delivered to all stockholders at the shared address in the future.
