Accordingly, there is no provision for income taxes within the financial statements. Tax-exempt organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position they have historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. Under guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold, based upon the technical merits of the position. Estimated interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions would be included as a component of income tax expense. The Partnership has evaluated the positions taken on its filed tax returns and has concluded no uncertain income tax positions exist at June 30, 2025. 1 Nokomis Regional High School 266 Williams Road Newport ME 04953 264416544 Government 87328 0 Grant to support Barr Foundation Wider Learning Ecosystem program initiative. 1 0 Part I, Line 2: The project director reviews and approves fund requests and related expenditure reports.
