Form 990, Part III, Line 3

“CSA America had a legal reorganization as of August 31, 2018. CSA America Testing and Certification LLC was formed as a taxable entity. Therefore the Program Service for Product testing and certification is only reported for five months, not the entire year. For 2019 this Program Service will not be included on the Form 990.”
