“Long-term sustainability”

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“FFT is exempt from Federal and State Income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Franchise Tax Board Code Section 23701d. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the Internal Revenue Service has determined FFT is not a private foundation within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.Management of FFT considers the likelihood of changes by taxing authorities in its filed tax returns and recognizes a liability for or discloses potential significant changes if management believes it is more likely than not for a change to occur, including changes to FFTs status as a not-for-profit entity. Management believes FFT met the requirements to maintain its tax-exempt status and has not income subject to unrelated business income tax; therefore no provision for income taxes has been provided in these financial statements. FFTs tax returns for the past three years are subject to examination by tax authorities, and may change upon examination.”
