Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the µnited States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from 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 auditor's 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. 1

Notes to Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 1. Description of organization The New Haven Reads Community Book Bank, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation founded in 2001. The Organization's goal is to create a community of readers by connecting people with the materials and training necessary to promote literacy. The Organization also offers after-school tutoring services, kindergarten and pre-kindergarten programs, homework assistance, club activities and provides gently-used books to the public. 2. Summary of significant accounting policies A. Basis of accounting The financial statements of the Organization have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. B. Basis of presentation The Organization's financial statement presentation follows the recommendations of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 958. The Organization is required to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets, and permanently restricted net assets. This pronouncement establishes standards for external financial reporting by not-for-profit organizations. Resources are reported for accounting purposes in separate classes of net assets based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. In the accompanying financial statements, net assets that have similar characteristics have been combined into similar categories as follows: Unrestricted Net assets that are not subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations. Unrestricted net assets may be designated for specific purposes by action ofthe Board of Directors. DONALD L. PERLROTH & COMP ANY, Certified Public Accountants 6
Notes to Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued B. Basis of presentation - continued Temporarily restricted Net assets whose use by the Organization is subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that can be fulfilled by actions of the Organization pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by the passage of time. Permanently restricted Net assets subject to explicit donor-imposed stipulations that they be maintained permanently by the Organization. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the Organization to use all or part of the investment return on these assets. Such assets primarily represent the historic dollar amount (principal portion) of the Organization's restricted endowment funds. Revenues are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets unless use of the related assets is limited by donor-imposed restrictions. Expenses are reported as decreases in unrestricted net assets. Gains and losses on investments and other assets or liabilities are reported as increases or decreases in unrestricted net assets unless their use is restricted by explicit donor stipulations or law. Expirations of temporary restrictions on net assets, that is, the donor-imposed stipulated purpose has been accomplished and/or the stipulated time period has elapsed, are reported as reclassifications between the applicable classes of net assets. C. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all checking and interest-bearing cash accounts from highly liquid investments with maturity dates of less than three months. The Organization does not maintain deposits with financial institutions which exceed federally insured limits. D. Receivables Receivables are periodically reviewed and those deemed uncollectible are written off utilizing the direct write-off method. The effect on the financial statements of using the direct write-off method rather than the allowance for bad debts is not material. There was no bad debt expense for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. DONALD L. PERLROTH & COMP ANY, Certified Public Accountants 7
Notes to Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued E. Fixed assets Equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Donated assets are capitalized at the estimated fair value at the date of receipt. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to operations as incurred. Upon the sale or disposition of properties, the asset account is relieved of the cost and the accumulated depreciation account is charged with depreciation taken prior to the sale or disposition, and any resultant gain or loss is credited or charged to income. The Organization capitalizes donated or purchased assets in excess of $1,500. Donated assets are capitalized at the estimated fair value at the date of receipt. F. Contributions All contributions are considered to be available for the general programs of the Organization unless specifically restricted by the donor. The Organization reports gifts of cash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statements of activities as net assets released from restrictions. G. Donated materials, services and facilities The Organization records donated materials, services and use of facilities when received, as contributions in the accompanying statements at their estimated value at the date of receipt. No amounts have been recognized for the values of donated services. The Organization recorded a total of $42,667 as the value of the donated use of facilities for each of the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. DONALD L. PERLROTH & COMP ANY, Certified Public Accountants 8
Notes to Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued H. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. I. Subsequent events The Organization has determined that there are no subsequent events required to be disclosed through January 17, 2018. J. Fair values of financial instruments Accounting Standards Codifications have established a framework for measuring fair value under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The new definition of fair value focuses on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability which is referred to as the exit price. This establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels (Level 1, 2 and 3). DONALD L. PERLROTH & COMP ANY, Certified Public Accountants 9
Notes to Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued J. Fair values of financial instruments - continued Level 1-Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Organization has the ability to access at the measurement date. 3. Tax status Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflecting the Organization's estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). The Organization's financial instruments include cash, grants receivable, prepaid expenses, certain investments, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying values of cash, grants receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of notes payable, when applicable, approximates their fair value due to their bearing interest at rates that approximate current market rates for notes with similar maturities and credit quality. The Organization is a non-stock, not-for-profit corporation, exempt from income tax under section 501{c){3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and contributions to it are tax deductible within the limitations prescribed by the Code. Each year, the Organization evaluates its tax position. As of June 30, 2017, the Organization determined it has no uncertainties regarding income taxes. The Organization is no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years prior to the year ended June 30, 2014. 4. Grants receivable Grants receivable are recorded as revenue at the time they are awarded. DONALD L. PERLROTH & COMP ANY, Certified Public Accountants 10

Net assets Temporarily restricted net assets and net assets released from restrictions by incurring ~xpenses satisfying the restricted purpose or by the expiration of time restrictions are all for general purposes relating to program services. 8. Operating lease The Organization rents space under a 5-year lease that began January 2016 and ends December 2020. Rental expense for the year ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $24,310 and $12,000, respectively.

Functional allocation of expenses Ttie costs of providing the various programs and activities have been summarized on a functional basis in the statement of activities. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated among the programs and supporting services benefited. 10. Concentration of credit risk The Organization considers investments in marketable equity securities and mutual funds to be sufficiently diversified to minimize individual investment risks. The investments are subject to the risks of the securities markets as a whole. 11. Contingencies _The Organization, at year end, maintained two accounts with People's United Bank, N.A. amounting to $436,114. This exceeds the $250,000 FDIC insurance and, therefore, constitutes an off-balance sheet credit risk. The Organization has not experienced any losses from such concentrations. DONALD L.
