ExplanationThe GFOA and Endowment Corporation are both tax-exempt organizations as permitted under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue code. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the GFOA and the Endowment Corporation may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of GFOA or the Endowment and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements form such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reported period presented in these financial statements. GFOA and the Endowment Corporation each separately file Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. GFOA also files a Form 990-T with the Internal Revenue Service. GFOA has federal net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future unrelated taxable income, if any. Net operating loss carryforwards total in excess of $1 million at March 31, 2025 and 2024. Future utilization of the carryforwards (limited to 80% of taxable income) is uncertain. Accordingly, the associated deferred tax asset is fully reserved by a valuation allowance.ExplanationTxt
