THE AMERICAN INDIA FOUNDATION

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019


INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Board of Directors of


The American India Foundation

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of The American India


Foundation (a not-for-profit organization), which comprise the statements of financial
position as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of activities,
functional expenses and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the
financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal
control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our


audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’
judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of The American India Foundation as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the
changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements, in March 2020, the United States declared
the global pandemic novel coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. As a result,
The American India Foundation has suspended or adapted some of its activities at the direction
of state and local governmental authorities. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this
matter.

THE AMERICAN INDIA FOUNDATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a - Organization
The American India Foundation (“AIF” or the “Organization”) is a not-for-profit
organization formed to provide financial, technological, and managerial resources
toward helping the people of India realize their full potential and strengthening the
bonds between the United States of America and India.

AIF has a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with The American India


Foundation Trust (“the Trust” or “AIFT”) located in India. The MOU includes
licensing and general grant administration agreements. The Trust will carry out
developmental activities with funds provided by AIF. AIF and the Trust do not share
any common members on their respective Boards of Directors, and accordingly, the
transactions of the Trust have not been included in the accompanying financial
statements.

Grants to the Trust from AIF, to support program related expenses, totaled
$3,970,396 and $1,518,820 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively (see Note 8). The outstanding advance to the Trust was $88,593 at
March 31, 2019. In addition, $45,070 and $1,055,388 was awarded to non-
governmental organizations during the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,
respectively.

b - Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Organization considers all highly
liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents, except for those short-term investments and cash managed by AIF’s
investment managers as part of their long-term investment strategies.

c - Contributions and Unconditional Promises to Give


Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a promise to give to the
Organization, that is in substance, unconditional. Contributions that are restricted by
the donor are reported as increases in net assets with donor restrictions. When a
restriction is met, net assets with donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets
without donor restrictions. Conditional promises to give, that have a measurable
performance or other barrier and a right of return, are not recognized as support
until the conditions have been met.

AIF received 13% of its contributions from one donor during the year ended March
31, 2019.

The Organization uses the allowance method to determine uncollectible promises


to give, if any. The allowance is based on prior years’ experience and
management’s analysis of specific promises made.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

d - Fair Value Measurements


Fair value is an estimate of the exit price, representing the amount that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants (i.e., the exit price at the measurement date). Fair
value measurements are not adjusted for transaction costs. The fair value hierarchy
prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three
levels.

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities are
referred to as Level 1 inputs. Inputs other than quoted market prices that are
observable, either directly or indirectly and reasonably available are referred to as
Level 2 inputs. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would
use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data
obtained from sources independent of the Organization. Unobservable inputs reflect
the assumptions developed based on available information about what market
participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are referred to as Level 3
inputs.

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest
level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of
observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors. The investment
managers use judgment in determining fair value of assets and liabilities. Level 3
assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than Level 1 or Level 2 assets or
liabilities.

The classification of investments in the fair value hierarchy is not necessarily an


indication of the risks, liquidity, or degree of difficulty in estimating the fair value of
each investment’s underlying assets and liabilities.

All of the Organization's marketable investments are classified within Level 1 (prices
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities) of the fair value hierarchy.

e - Investments
The Organization reflects its marketable investments at fair value in the statement
of financial position. Restricted stock is reflected at the appraised value at the time
of donation. Interest, dividends, and gains and losses on investments are reflected
in the statement of activities as increases and decreases in net assets without
donor restrictions, unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or by
law.

Purchases and sales of investments reflected in the statement of cash flows are
reported net of short-term investments with maturities of three months or less.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

f - Property and Equipment


Property and equipment acquired are recorded at cost and are depreciated using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

g - Grants Awarded
Unconditional grants are recorded when awarded to the grantee organization.

h - Financial Statement Presentation


The financial statements of the Organization have been prepared in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the Organization
to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to the
following net asset classifications:

Net Assets Without Donor Restrictions


Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions and may be
expended for any purpose in performing the primary objectives of the
Organization. These net assets may be used at the discretion of the
Organization’s management and Board of Directors.

Net Assets With Donor Restrictions


Net assets subject to stipulations imposed by donors and grantors. Some
donor restrictions are temporary in nature; those restrictions will be met by
actions of the Organization or the passage of time. Other donor restrictions are
perpetual in nature, whereby the donor has stipulated the funds be maintained
in perpetuity.

i - Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.

j - Income Taxes
The American India Foundation is a not-for-profit organization exempt from federal
income taxes under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has been
designated as an organization which is not a private foundation.

k - Subsequent Events
The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through October 22, 2020, the
date that the financial statements are considered available to be issued.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

l - Functional Allocation of Expenses


The financial statements report certain categories of expenses that are attributable
to more than one program or supporting function. Expenses are applied directly to
programs where applicable or allocated on a reasonable and consistent basis. A
substantial portion of the Organization’s expenses are directly related to program
activities. The expenses that are allocated include payroll and benefits, occupancy,
consulting fees, telephone and internet, office supplies, repairs and maintenance,
depreciation, and certain miscellaneous expenses which are allocated on the basis
of staff time and effort.

m - New Accounting Pronouncements


In 2020, the Organization adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No 2014-
09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and ASU 2018-08, Not-
for-Profit Entities: Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for
Contributions Received and Contributions Made (Topic 605). Analysis of the
various provisions of these standards resulted in no significant changes in the way
the Organization recognizes revenue, and therefore no changes to the previously
issued audited financial statements were required on a retrospective basis.

Note 2 - Information Regarding Liquidity and Availability

The Organization operates with a balanced budget for each fiscal year based on the
revenues expected to be available to fund anticipated expenses. A substantial portion
of annual revenue is comprised of contribution revenue raised during the current year,
and revenue from other sources earned during the year. The Organization considers
general expenditures to consist of all expenses related to its ongoing program activities,
and the expenses related to general and administrative and fundraising activities
undertaken to support those services.

The Organization regularly monitors liquidity to meet its operating needs and other
commitments and obligations, while seeking to maximize the investment of its available
funds. Management prepares regular cash flow projections to determine liquidity needs,
and has a policy to maintain liquid financial assets on an ongoing basis sufficient to
cover ninety days of general expenditures. Financial assets in excess of daily cash
requirements are invested in money market funds and certificates of deposit.

Note 3 - Net Assets With Donor Restrictions (continued)


b - Endowment Funds
The Organization’s endowment consists of two funds established for general
support. As required by generally accepted accounting principles, net assets
associated with endowment funds are classified and reported based on the
existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions.

Consistent with New York Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act


(NYPMIFA), the Organization classifies as net assets with donor restrictions (a) the
original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the original value of
subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the
permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of any applicable
donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund.

The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment that is not for investment
in perpetuity is classified as endowment subject to spending policy and
appropriation until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the
Organization.

In accordance with NYPMIFA, the Organization considers the following factors in


making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment
funds:
(i) the duration and preservation of the endowment fund;
(ii) the purposes of the Organization and the endowment fund;
(iii) general economic conditions;
(iv) the possible effect of inflation or deflation;
(v) the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments;
(vi) other resources of the Organization;
(vii) where appropriate and circumstances would otherwise warrant,
alternatives to expenditure of the endowment fund, giving due
consideration to the effect that such alternatives may have on the
Organization; and
(viii) the investment policy of the Organization

Changes in the Organization’s endowment funds for the years ended March 31,
2020 and 2019 are summarized as follows:

Return Objective and Risk Parameters


The primary investment objective of AIF is to preserve and protect its assets by
earning a total return for each fund appropriate to each fund’s time horizon, liquidity
needs, and risk tolerance. AIF seeks to eliminate any excess interest rate risk by
limiting the type and the time horizons of its investments.

Strategies Employed for Achieving Objectives and Spending Policy

Asset Quality
Fixed income securities - The quality rating of bonds and notes must be “A” or
better, as rated by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. The portfolio may consist of
only transitional principal and interest obligations (no derivatives) with maturities
of seven years or less.

Cash/Cash equivalents - The quality rating of commercial paper must be A-1, as


rated by Standard & Poor’s, P-1, as rated by Moody’s, or better. The assets of
any money market mutual funds must comply with rule 2a-7.

AIF has taken a conservative view of protecting capital and has been primarily
investing in money markets, corporate bonds and FDIC insured CD’s based on the
guidelines set by the Finance Committee.

The Organization has a policy of appropriating 100% of endowment earnings.
