Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The permanently restricted net assets are to be used to continue the center's investigative journalism.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“The center has adopted financial accounting standards board (fasb) asc 740. Fasb asc 740 requires changes in recognition and measurement for uncertain tax positions. The center has analyzed its tax positions and has concluded that no liability should be recorded related to any uncertain tax positions. The center is not aware of any tax positions which it believes will change materially in the next twelve months. If this position changes, the center will assess the impact of any such matters on its financial position and results of operations.”
