Frontier Credit Union

Part X, Line 2:

“The Credit Union is exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no income tax provision has been recorded on the accompanying financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent. The terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit or liability that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management's judgment. The Credit Union had no unrecognized tax positions as of December 31, 2021. The Credit Union recognized no interest or penalties on the underpayment of income taxes during the year ended December 31, 2021, and had no accrued interest or penalties on the statement of financial condition as of December 31, 2021. The Credit Union has no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase during the next twelve months. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and certain state taxing authorities are currently revisiting what, if any, products and services provided by state chartered credit unions are subject to unrelated business income tax (UBIT). There is currently very little guidance in the IRS code on what activities should be subject to UBIT. The IRS has indicated that they are studying the issue and may issue additional guidance. As a result, at this time there is uncertainty regarding whether state chartered credit unions should pay income tax on certain types of net taxable income from activities that may be considered by taxing authorities as unrelated to the purpose for which the Credit Union was granted nontaxable status. The Credit Union has not filed any tax returns in the past showing these activities as potential taxable activities. The taxing authorities have the ability to assess taxes, penalties and interest for any years for which no tax return was filed. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from taxing authorities imposing income taxes on the net taxable income from activities deemed to be unrelated to the Credit Union's nontaxable status is not expected to have a material effect on the Credit Union's financial position or results of operations.”
