Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

The Institute is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and therefore has made no provision for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the organization has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service not to be a "private foundation" within the meaning of Section 509 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code. There was no unrelated business income for the year ended June 30. 2020. The Institute is not subject to income taxes in accordance with the Income Taxes topic of FASB ASC (formerly FIN 48). The Income Taxes topic of FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement and classification of amounts relating to uncertain tax positions, accounting for and disclosure of interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition relating to the adoption of the new accounting standards. The Company adopted FASB ASC 740-10 as of July 1, 2009, as required, and determined that its adoption did not have a material impact on the Institute's financial position and results of operations. Management has evaluated significant tax positions of its consolidated for-profit subsidiaries against the criteria established by professional standards and believes there are no such tax positions requiring accounting recognition in the financial statements. Management does not believe its evaluation of tax positions will significantly change within twelve months of June 30, 2020. Any changes in tax positions will be recorded when the ultimate outcome becomes known. The Institute's income tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities generally for the years ended June 30, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

IRS990/Desc0The Middle East Media and Research Institute (MEMRI) is a vital, worldwide 24/7/365 operation providing an essential service for media, legislative bodies, government agencies, policy makers, law enforcement, academia, and the public at large. MEMRI "bridges the language gap" between the Middle East and the West by monitoring, translating, and analyzing the media of the region, offering direct access to primary source material in Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, and Pashtu. It translates content from the entire spectrum of political, ideological, cultural, and other vital spheres, informing governments, legislatures, and law enforcement and assisting them in carrying out their missions, and also informing media, academia, and the public at large. MEMRI research averaging 20 reports every week is disseminated daily by email to over 100,000 subscribers, with more subscribing every day, and is available free of charge on MEMRI websites: MEMRI.org, MEMRI publishes its research in English and other major languages. MEMRI's main website, MEMRI.org, as well as its websites for its various projects, receive millions of hits every year. These websites include: MEMRI TV, Iran Studies Project, Cyber and Jihad Lab, Jihad and Terrorism Threat Monitor (JTTM) Project, Reform Project, Antisemitism Documentation Project, Russian Media Studies Project, and the South Asia Studies Project. MEMRI conducts briefings and provides its research to federal agencies that focus on foreign policy, counterterrorism, and more, including the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Justice, and State; the FBI; the Library of Congress, and many more. Other agencies using MEMRI research are the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the Department of Commerce, the U.S. Secret Service, the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the U.S. Capitol Police, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), and the United States Attorney's Office, among others. MEMRI research is also used in Congressional hearings on issues related to the Middle East, counterterrorism, and other vital issues.Since its founding in 1997, MEMRI has been an integral research tool for the U.S. military. On a daily basis, MEMRI assists and lends support to all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force including hundreds of different units. MEMRI has been used for military classroom lessons and cultural awareness training, on internal websites, in mission support for soldiers, as training aids, in pre-deployment preparation, in basic research, and much more. Media outlets across the U.S. regularly rely on MEMRI research: all major TV networks, major newspapers and magazines, online news outlets, and more.
