Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The foundation is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes is included in these financial statements. The accounting standard that provides guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the foundation may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the foundation and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the years ended april 30, 2025 and 2024.”
