Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2

Certain KWI board members are also members of the boards of certain KWI affiliates. These overlapping board memberships constitute a "business relationship" as defined by Form 990 instructions.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 3

Effective November 30, 2017, KWI's Board designated JPMorgan Chase the outsourced Chief Investment Officer to provide investment advisory and management services.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6

KWI has a single corporate member, KnowledgeWorks Foundation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7A

KWI has a single corporate member, KnowledgeWorks Foundation, who has the authority to elect members to the governing body of KWI.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7B

All decisions that have a material impact to KWI's financial information or corporation as a whole are subject to approval by its sole corporate member, KnowledgeWorks Foundation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11B

After completion by the preparer, the draft Form 990 is reviewed by the Accounting Director and COO/VP of Finance. The final draft of the Form 990 is reviewed with the Audit Committee. After it receives the approval of the Audit Committee, the final Form 990 is distributed to all members of the Board of Directors before it is filed.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12C

On an annual basis a Conflict of Interest questionnaire is completed by directors and officers and reviewed by management. Items reported are discussed with Legal Counsel, who advises management and the Board of any required actions. The Conflicts of Interest Policy is distributed with the annual questionnaire and is also accessible on the secure director's portion of the Foundation's website.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15

The officers are not compensated by KWI. Their compensation is determined by the Compensation Committee of the parent company, KnowledgeWorks Foundation, who employs those individuals. The compensation of the CEO, other officers, and key employees are set by the Compensation Committee of the KnowledgeWorks' Board of Directors utilizing a compensation study performed by an independent compensation consulting firm comparing similar positions in similar organizations, including review of Form 990s for other organizations.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

The consolidated financial statements of KWI and its parent company, KnowledgeWorks Foundation, are available on the KnowledgeWorks Foundation website. KWI's Form 990, Form 990-T, governing documents and Conflict of Interest Policy are available upon request.

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part XI, line 9:

Transfer to KnowledgeWorks Foundation for funding of operations -7,781,853.

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

From the consolidated audited financial statements of KnowledgeWorks Foundation, which include the activity of KWI: The Foundation has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the IRS and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Foundation believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Foundations financial position, statement of activities, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Foundation has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30, 2019 and 2018. In the event interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits, the Foundation would recognize such amounts as a component of income tax expense.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0From the consolidated audited financial statements of KnowledgeWorks Foundation, which include the activity of KWI: The Foundation has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the IRS and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Foundation believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Foundations financial position, statement of activities, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Foundation has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30, 2019 and 2018. In the event interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits, the Foundation would recognize such amounts as a component of income tax expense.
