Part X, Line 2:The Cooperative is a not-for-profit, membership cooperative under section 501(c)(12) of the Internal Revenue Code and therefore, the Cooperative is exempt from federal income taxes. Pursuant to the New York Rural Electrification Law, the Cooperative is also exempt from state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been made in the consolidated financial statements. Certain income earned from other unrelated products and services may require the Cooperative to pay federal and state income taxes. If this situation should arise, the necessary provisions for income tax liabilities are recorded in the Consolidated Financial Statements. No such tax liabilities existed at December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Cooperative is required to file informational returns with the Internal Revenue Service. The tax years from 2022 and later remain subject to examination by the taxing authorities.
Part XII, Line 4b - Other Adjustments:CURRENT YEAR RETIREMENT OF CAPITAL CREDITS 553,558.
PART XII, LINE 4BThe Cooperative had retirements of capital credits of $553,558 to its members in 2025. This amount is included in "Benefits paid to or for members", net of other amounts, in Part IX, Statement of Functional Expenses.
