We activate our mission by working with a network of 60+ partners located in states and provinces across North America. 0 0 2731223 2114041 Scientific Data and Methods: NatureServe provides the trusted science that conservation depends on. Working with expert partners across North America, we collect and analyze data on plants, animals, and ecosystems--especially those most at risk. Our science helps identify where species live, what threats they face, and which places need protection most urgently, so conservation dollars and actions can be targeted where they make the greatest difference. 1756948 1359925 Conservation Products and Services: NatureServe turns complex biodiversity data into practical tools and information anyone can use. We maintain the most comprehensive information available on more than 100,000 species and ecosystems and share it through free and subscription-based tools like NatureServe Explorer. These products help land managers, governments, businesses, researchers, and the public understand what species exist, where they are found, and how they are doing--supporting smarter conservation and development decisions. 1415472 1095614 Technology Research, Development, and Data Management: NatureServe builds and maintains the technology that powers modern conservation. Our core system helps states and provinces track and map rare and threatened species and ecosystems, supporting environmental review and land-use planning across North America. We continuously improve this technology and are exploring new tools, including artificial intelligence, to speed up assessments and get critical information into the hands of decision-makers faster. 5903643 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 18 0 1 61 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 13 13 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 AL AR CA FL GA HI IL KS KY MD MA MI MN MS NH NJ NM NY NC OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WV WI X X Oscar Yurica 7039081800 2550 South Clark Street 930A Arlington VA 22202 Bryce Maxell Board of Directors Member Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Carolyn Hendricks Board of Directors Member Vice Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Jane Breckinridge Board of Directors Member Secretary 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Nancy Weiss Board of Directors Member Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Dave Anderson Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Francisco Carrillo Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Sunny Fleming Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Friesen Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Cindy Hewitt Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Debbie Lucas Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Quarles Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 John Trezise Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Alan Weakley Board of Directors Member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Anne Bowser Chief Executive Officer 35.00 X 178800 0 17380 Lori Scott Executive Director 35.00 X 183582 0 34673 Regan Smyth VP of Conservation Science 35.00 X 155158 0 9272 Karen Smith Fernandez Chief Advancement Officer 35.00 X 137933 0 26536 Frank McLean IT Manager 35.00 X 152215 0 21909 HauverDavid Burton Principal software Engineer 35.00 X 131068 0 28364 Oscar Yurica Director of Finance 35.00 X 129226 0 17294 1067982 0 155428 22 0 1 0 Your Part-Time Controller LLC 1600 Market Street Suite 3425 Philadelphia PA 19103 Accounting services 179773 1 2655149 827729 10522 3482878 Contract Revenues 900099 2182646 2182646 Software Support & Svcs 541700 1719666 1719666 Data Requests & Maps 541700 553101 553101 Membership Dues 900099 114167 114167 4569580 77203 77203 149923 0 149923 149923 149923 1708724 1458441 250283 250283 250283 8529867 4569580 0 477409 421679 279690 108276 33713 5142002 3412637 1318019 411346 278149 184603 71295 22251 401707 264115 105757 31835 438936 291300 112524 35112 4651 4651 27876 27876 13658 13658 369419 107432 223015 38972 154560 18329 129349 6882 940185 727030 212974 181 325600 235779 56138 33683 90106 52566 31585 5955 21795 9479 11763 553 22254 22254 50526 50526 Subagreements 305231 305231 Bad debt expense 47236 47236 Taxes, licenses, and pe 40983 5995 33519 1469 Dues and subscriptions 27754 9457 18297 9124307 5903643 2598712 621952 763099 651861 554437 462634 878081 145409 1888556 1645254 131613 32465 1298816 973389 82193 325427 2021522 1868708 1711639 1459961 8031140 6591719 985716 695172 1656838 1588088 1995243 1742232 4637797 4025492 X 2114605 1649188 1278738 917039 3393343 2566227 8031140 6591719 X -594440 -229868 -2808 X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X 4435967 5173605 4959110 5354230 3482878 23405790 4435967 5173605 4959110 5354230 3482878 23405790 693411 22712379 418044 346457 179664 112317 227126 1283608 17369 32062 49431 24738829 17384830 0.91810 0.88630 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10, Explanation of Other Income: Other income - 2020 Amount: $ 17,369. 2021 Amount: $ 32,062.

These members have the right to vote for representatives to their section council, to vote for the section representatives to the Board of Directors, and to vote on resolutions at meetings of the membership. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a Three seats on the Board of Directors are selected by the constituent members to represent the two section councils: one seat for the Canadian section and two seats for the United States section. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b Upon receipt of a draft form 990 from its accounting and tax firm, the organization provides copies to the audit committee of the Board of Directors to review, upon satisfactory review with the organization management and the audit committee, the final form 990 is provided to the full Board for comment in a timely fashion and then filed with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Each member of NatureServe's Board of Directors and each of its corporate officers annually signs a statement disclosing any and all real, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest. In case of any Board member or corporate officer disclosed conflict, the Board (absent the member in question if needed), determines how to resolve the conflict; including: (1) whether the Board member or corporate officer should be removed from the discussion of the matter; and (2) whether the relationship with the individual or entity presenting the conflict should be terminated. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a In early 2024, NatureServe conducted a review of CEO and Executive Director compensation as part of its commitment to nonprofit best practices and responsible stewardship. Guided by the organization's internal Compensation Increase Framework, this review included an evaluation of market data from peer nonprofits and executive compensation surveys to ensure salaries remained reasonable and aligned with industry standards. A recommended adjustment was presented to the Executive Committee, composed entirely of independent directors, which considered the data alongside organizational performance and financial health. Their deliberations and recommendation were documented in accordance with IRS guidelines for establishing reasonable compensation. The Executive Committee's recommendation was then reviewed and formally approved by the independent members of the full Board of Directors. NatureServe also applies this compensation framework to other key staff, using current market data and performance-based criteria to guide decisions around salary adjustments and cost-of-living increases. All compensation decisions are carefully documented, reflecting the organization's commitment to transparency, fairness, and sound governance practices. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The organization has a public disclosure policy which states that the organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, form 990 and financial statements are to be made available to the public upon written request. Form 990 and financial statements are also available on the organization's website. Form 990, Part XI, line 9: Provision for credit losses -2,808.
