For Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter
FAIRFIELD, N.J., February 9, 2026 – Jerash Holdings (US), Inc. (NASDAQ: JRSH) (the “Company” or “Jerash”), which manufactures and exports custom, ready-made, sportswear and outerwear for leading global brands, today announced significantly improved financial results for its fiscal 2026 third quarter ended December 31, 2025.
Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Highlights
| ● | Revenue increased 18.0 percent to $41.8 million, from $35.4 million in the prior year quarter. |
| ● | Gross margin improved 170 basis points to 16.9 percent, from 15.2 percent in the prior year quarter. |
| ● | Operating income nearly tripled to $1.9 million, from $708,000 in the prior year quarter. |
| ● | Net income improved to $1.2 million, from $6,000 in the prior year quarter. |
Outlook
| ● | Revenue for the fiscal 2026 fourth quarter is expected to increase by 23 to 26 percent over $29.3 million in the prior-year quarter, positioning fiscal 2026 for record annual revenue. |
| ● | Gross margin for the fiscal 2026 fourth quarter is anticipated to be approximately 14 to 16 percent. |
“Jerash’s fiscal 2026 third quarter results reflect increasing demand from our long-standing core global brand customers, complemented by the initial contributions from our new strategic partner in Korea, which together drove meaningful improvements across both the top and bottom lines,” said Sam Choi, Jerash’s chairman and chief executive officer. “With our new customers, we expect strong revenue growth that exceeds our current manufacturing capacity, which reinforces our decision to expand operations to meet demand.
“We are thrilled with the recently announced acquisition of a bank-owned manufacturing building and associated land, which represents a significant milestone in advancing Jerash’s business growth strategy for the next five years. Upon completion of renovations by the end of this calendar year, the new manufacturing building is expected to increase production capacity by at least 40 percent, substantially enhancing our ability to support increasing demand, as we continue to expand and diversify customer base and product mix.
“This expansion improves our operational flexibility and supports efficient scaling, while maintaining the quality and cost discipline our customers expect. As order volumes continue to grow for new and expanded product offerings, we remain focused on driving further gross margin improvement,” Choi added.

Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Results
Revenue for the fiscal 2026 third quarter rose 18.0 percent to $41.8 million, from $35.4 million in the same quarter last year. The growth was primarily driven by increases in shipments to the Company’s major export markets, including the U.S., and a new customer in Korea.
Gross profit increased 31.0 percent to $7.0 million for the fiscal 2026 third quarter, from $5.4 million in the same quarter last year. Gross profit margin for the quarter improved to 16.9 percent, from 15.2 percent in the same period last year. The increase primarily reflected the product mix from new customers and the benefit of economies of scale.
Operating expenses totaled $5.1 million in the fiscal 2026 third quarter, compared with $4.7 million in the same quarter last year. The increase mainly reflected higher sales volumes and increased recruitment costs, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation.
Operating income nearly tripled to $1.9 million in the fiscal 2026 third quarter, from $708,000 in the same quarter last year.
Total other expenses were $418,000 in the fiscal 2026 third quarter, compared with $252,000 in the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to the increase in financing needs to support business growth and exchange losses.
Income tax expenses were $368,000 in the fiscal 2026 third quarter, compared with $450,000 in the prior year quarter.
Net income rose to $1.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the fiscal 2026 third quarter, from $6,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the same quarter last year.
Comprehensive income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders advanced to $1.2 million in the fiscal 2026 third quarter, from a comprehensive loss of $147,000 in the same quarter last year.
Nine-Month Fiscal Year 2026 Results
Revenue for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026 rose 5.8 percent to $123.4 million, from $116.6 million in the same period last year.
Gross profit increased 13.7 percent to $19.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026, from $17.1 million for the same period last year. Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026 improved to 15.7 percent, from 14.7 percent in the same period last year.
Operating expenses for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026 were $15.4 million, compared with $16.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to better control of export costs, lower stock-based compensation expenses and reduced spending on repair and maintenance.
