This producer of health products for women trades at 49 times trailing earnings and 15 times forward earnings.

The company reported net income of $784 thousand, or $0.09 per share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2015, compared with a net loss of $571 thousand, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the previous quarter.

Declaration date: the day that the company declares that there is going to be an upcoming dividend.
Ex-dividend date: the day on which if you buy the stock, you would not be entitled to that particular dividend; or the first day on which a shareholder can sell the shares and still be entitled to the dividend.
Record date: the day when you must be on the company's books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is normally set for stocks at two business days before the record date.
