The association and foundation pay unrelated business income tax on certain of its activities, which are deemed to be unrelated to its exempt purpose. As required by the uncertain tax position guidance, the association and the foundation recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The association and the foundation applied the uncertain tax position guidance to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open and determined there were no material unrecognized tax benefits as of february 28, 2025 and february 28, 2024. There were no material interest or penalties related to income tax that have been accrued or recognized as of and for the years ended february 29, 2025 and february 28, 2024.”
