Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“Seventhwave is a nonprofit corporation under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and is therefore not subject to federal and state income or franchise taxes. Seventhwave has adopted the provisions of fasb asc 740-10-25, which requires that a tax position be recognized or derecognized based on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Seventhwave does not believe its financial statements include any uncertain tax positions. Seventhwave files a form 990 in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and a form 1952 in the state of wisconsin. With few exceptions, seventhwave is no longer subject to examination by the internal revenue service for years before 2013 for federal and 2012 for state.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Research - Seventhwave studies the as-installed performance of residential and commercial building systems. We design and execute field studies to investigate various aspects of space heating, air conditioning, water heating, lighting and plug-load energy use. We understand how buildings work and we use that knowledge to inform our modeling and analysis. Seventhwave is conducting a multi-level field study to characterize existing roof-top units and the market for new and replacement RTUs; characterizing the small commercial sector in Minnesota; conducting a demand-side efficiency potential study; and completing a baseline study of residential new construction practices in Wisconsin.
