Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The club is operated as a private membership club and is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(7) of the internal revenue service code, except for amounts representing unrelated business income. Unrelated business income such as investment income, facility rental, or special events may, from time to time, produce taxable income in varying amounts. Due to net operating loss carryforwards, no current year taxes are due. During the year ended december 31, 2024, there were no income tax penalties or interest recognized in the club's financial statements. The club's tax returns for the prior three fiscal years are open and subject to examination by the internal revenue service; however, the club is not currently under audit nor has the club been contacted by this jurisdiction. The club believes there are no uncertain tax positions for the year ended december 31, 2024.”
