Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6

Cullman Electric Cooperative is a not-for-profit membership organization whose members have identical voting rights and are assigned margins in accordance with the corporation's bylaws.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7A

Members have the right to elect the board of trustees.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7B

The membership must approve decisions that involve substantial transfers of cooperative assets, amendments to the cooperative's bylaws, as well as other decisions requiring approval of the membership by law, the articles of incorporation, and/or the cooperative's bylaws.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11B

Organization's process is to review the form 990 after the form 990 is prepared. The chief financial officer and the controller then perform the initial review.

A copy of the conflict of interest policy and a questionaire is provided annually to all trustees, applicable management team members and selected employees to be returned to the CEO or executive committee of the board of trustees.

The board of trustees evaluates the performance of the CEO annually. During this time compensation is reviewed and the board, acting as the compensation committee, makes their recommendation.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part IX, Line 4

The instructions to the Form 990 indicate that organizations exempt under Section 501 (c)(12) should report patronage dividends paid to their members in Part IX, Line 4 of the Form 990. Cullman Electric Cooperative has interpreted the words "patronage dividends paid" in the instructions to mean margins that are assigned or assignable to the members. Cullman Electric Cooperative assigns the net margins to its members each year. Therefore, the amount listed in Part IX, Line 4 represents the net margins assignable to the members for the calendar year.

Form 990, Part XI, line 9:

Margins Allocated to Members 5,615,499. Change in Memberships 2,545. Other Comprehensive Income 195,691.

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

Income taxes - The Cooperative is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(12) of the Internal Revenue Code, except on net income derived from unrelated business activities. Cooperative Connection, LLC is a single member LLC and is treated as a disregarded entity for income tax purposes on the Cooperative's Federal Exempt Organization Business Tax Return (Form 990). The Cooperative considers income derived from its broadband services to be an unrelated business activity. The Cooperative believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The Cooperative's Form 990 for the years ended June 30, 2021 and thereafter remain open and subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
