Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“The process has not changed from prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Skill growth accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting standards codification (asc) topic income taxes. These provisions provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribe a threshold of "more likely than not" for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Skill growth performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions as of december 31, 2023 and 2022, and determined that there were no matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or that may have an effect on its tax-exempt status. It is the organization's policy to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in unrelated business income tax expense.”
