        <ExplanationTxt>Easter Seals New Hampshire, Inc., Easter Seals VT and Farnum Center are exempt from both federal and state income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, with the exception of certain federal taxes applicable to not-for-profit entities. Tax-exempt organizations could be required to record an obligation for income taxes as the result of a tax position historically taken on various tax exposure items including unrelated business income or tax status. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), 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. Management has evaluated tax positions taken by Easter Seals New Hampshire, Inc., Easter Seals VT and Farnum Center on their respective filed tax returns and concluded that the organizations have maintained their tax-exempt status, do not have any significant unrelated business income, and have taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Champlin Place, Inc. and ESNH Veterans Inc.'s management has determined that the entities have not taken, nor expect to take, any uncertain tax positions in any income tax return.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The officers, key employee, and highest compensated employees listed in Part VII-A, line 1 and Schedule J, Part II receive a single Form W-2 from Easter Seals New Hampshire, Inc. The compensation reported on that Form W-2 represents amounts received for services provided to Easter Seals New Hampshire, Inc. and its related organizations. Easter Seals New Hampshire, Inc. is the parent organization with oversight and responsibility for three (3) nonprofit subsidiary entities, each filing their own separate 990s: Easter Seals Vermont, Inc.; The Way Home, Inc.; and Manchester Alcoholism Rehabilitation Center. It should be noted 100% of the compensation for officers and key employees is paid by Easter Seals New Hampshire (a common paymaster), and the wages are allocated to the three (3) related organizations they support. These organizations benefit from all services of the officer and key employee functions, and this structure allows for major cost savings as a result of not hiring or filling officer or key employee positions in each of the subsidiary entities. A significant portion of the compensation is supported financially by the three (3) entities and reimbursed to Easter Seals New Hampshire for their proportionate share. The amounts reported in Part VII, Column (D) and Schedule J, Part II, row (i) reflect the compensation received with respect to services performed for the reporting entity only. The balance of the individual's compensation is reported in Part VII, column (E) and Schedule J, Part II, row (ii). The sum of Part VII columns (D) and (E) equal box 5 of the respective employee's 2024 Form W-2.</ExplanationTxt>
