Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.

CMHS holds a beneficial interest in donations and was named the beneficiary for public donations to an endowment held by the Central Montana Foundation (Foundation). The endowment is designed to hold contributions, with funds generated by its earnings to be used exclusively for the ongoing expenses, programs, and activities of CMHS; the original principal of the endowment cannot be spent.Variance power and legal ownership has been granted to the Foundation, which has final decision-making authority. All contributors agree to abide by the policies, procedures, terms, and conditions of the Foundation. Contributors agree not to use the tax identification number of the Foundation for their own borrowing purposes. The Foundations normal procedure is to add capital gains distributions to principal and reallocate earnings at fiscal year-end. If the balance of the endowment falls below $1,000, or there is no activity on the account for twelve (12) consecutive months, the balance of the account may be transferred to the general fund of the Foundation.The amount of the CMHS-funded endowment held by the Foundation was $4,274 and $3,838 as of May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. $2,168 and $1,903, respectively, was available to be distributed to CMHS. This endowment is considered the asset of theCentral Montana Foundation and is not recorded in CMHSs financial statements.

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

CMHS is exempt from income tax under provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This code enables CMHS to accept donations that qualify as charitable contributions to the donor. CMHSs increase in net assets is generally not subject to income taxes. However, income from certain activities not directly related to CMHSs tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. Provisions for income taxes have not been recorded in the financial statements as management does not believe there was any unrelated business income in 2025 and 2024.With few exceptions, CMHS is no longer subject to examination for tax years prior to 2022.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0CMHS holds a beneficial interest in donations and was named the beneficiary for public donations to an endowment held by the Central Montana Foundation (Foundation). The endowment is designed to hold contributions, with funds generated by its earnings to be used exclusively for the ongoing expenses, programs, and activities of CMHS; the original principal of the endowment cannot be spent.Variance power and legal ownership has been granted to the Foundation, which has final decision-making authority. All contributors agree to abide by the policies, procedures, terms, and conditions of the Foundation. Contributors agree not to use the tax identification number of the Foundation for their own borrowing purposes. The Foundations normal procedure is to add capital gains distributions to principal and reallocate earnings at fiscal year-end. If the balance of the endowment falls below $1,000, or there is no activity on the account for twelve (12) consecutive months, the balance of the account may be transferred to the general fund of the Foundation.The amount of the CMHS-funded endowment held by the Foundation was $4,274 and $3,838 as of May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. $2,168 and $1,903, respectively, was available to be distributed to CMHS. This endowment is considered the asset of theCentral Montana Foundation and is not recorded in CMHSs financial statements.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1CMHS is exempt from income tax under provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This code enables CMHS to accept donations that qualify as charitable contributions to the donor. CMHSs increase in net assets is generally not subject to income taxes. However, income from certain activities not directly related to CMHSs tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. Provisions for income taxes have not been recorded in the financial statements as management does not believe there was any unrelated business income in 2025 and 2024.With few exceptions, CMHS is no longer subject to examination for tax years prior to 2022.
