Ha)':nes IIIDownard LLP Certified Public Accountants and Business Advisors INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors Better Basics, Inc. Birmingham, Alabama We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Better Basics, Inc. (a nonprofit organization), which comprise the statements of financial position as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of activities, cash flows and functional expenses 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 of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's 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 auditor's judgment, including 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. BIRMINGHAM. 2121 2nd Avenne North.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Better Basics, Inc. (the "Organization") is a non-profit corporation whose mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of children and their families by advancing literacy through enrichment and intervention programs. Basis of Accounting The accounting and reporting policies of the Organization and the methods of applying those policies that materially affect the accompanying financial statements conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAp l ). In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the statement of financial position date and revenues and expenses for the period shown. Actual results could differ from the estimates used in the financial statements. Basis of Presentation The Organization reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: Unrestricted net assets represent revenues and expenses related to the operation and management of the Organization's primary programs and supporting services. Temporarily restricted net assets represent resources available for use, but expendable only for the purposes specifically stated by the donor. Permanently restricted net assets must be maintained in perpetuity. In accordance with donor instructions, the Organization may use the investment income earned on permanently restricted net assets for specified purposes. Unconditional promises to give are recognized as contributions at the net present value of the amounts expected to be collected. Contributions are considered available for unrestricted use unless specifically restricted by the donor. Amounts received that are restricted for future periods or by the donor for specific purposes are reported as temporarily restricted or permanently restricted support that increase those net asset classes. 9
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Basis of Presentation - Continued 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 and changes in net assets as net assets released from restrictions. Support that is restricted by the donor is reported as an increase in unrestricted net assets if the restriction expires in the reporting period in which the support is recognized. If an expense is incurred for a purpose for which both unrestricted and temporary restricted net assets are available the Organization considers the donor-imposed restriction fulfilled unless the expense is for a purpose that is directly attributable to another specific external source of revenue. Revenue generated from programs is recognized upon the provision of the service. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Organization considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount of the Organization's cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these investments. Contributions and Grants Receivable Contributions and grants receivable consist of unconditional promises to give in the form of grants and pledges. Unconditional promises to give are recognized as revenues at their fair values in the period they are received. Unconditional promises to give with payments due in future periods are discounted at a rate commensurate with the scheduled timing of receipt. All amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2016 are expected to be collected within the next year. The methodology for calculating an allowance for uncollectible promises to give is based upon management's analysis of the aging of payment schedules for all outstanding pledges and historical experience with donors. The Organization has not recorded an allowance, as management believes that all pledges are fully collectible. Prepaid Expenses Prepaid expenses consist primarily of books and materials and are recorded at cost. Books and materials are expensed as they are distributed by the Organization. Prepaid expenses also include certain future period operating expenses paid in advance. 10
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2016, AND 2015 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and consist of office furniture, office equipment, and a resource library containing books and materials used year after year in Better Basics programs. Donations of property and equipment are recorded as support at their estimated fair value. Such donations are reported as unrestricted support unless the donor has restricted the donated asset to a specific purpose. All acquisitions of property and equipment in excess of $1,000 and all expenditures for repairs, maintenance, renewals, and betterments that materially prolong the useful lives of assets are capitalized. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Furniture and equipment are generally depreciated over 3-7 years. Library books and materials are being depreciated over 5 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over 10 years. Investments Investments are carried at fair value based upon quoted market prices. Donated Goods and Services Donations of goods and services are recorded at their fair value at the date of donation. If donors stipulate restrictions in the usage of donated goods and services, the contributions are recorded as restricted support. In absence of such stipulation, contributions of goods and services are recorded as unrestricted support. In addition, the Organization received donated goods and services from other contributors and volunteers which are not measurable and, therefore, have been excluded from the financial statements. Functional Allocation of Expenses The costs of providing the various programs and activities have been summarized on a functional basis in the statement of functional expenses. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated among programs and supporting services benefited based on management's estimate. Income Taxes The Organization is a tax-exempt entity under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. 11
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Concentration of Credit Risk The Organization has financial instruments, namely cash and cash equivalents that potentially subject it to a concentration of credit risk. The Organization places its cash with high credit-quality financial institutions. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Levell measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described below. Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Organization has the ability to access. Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. 12
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Fair Value Measurements - Continued The asset or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Uncertain Tax Positions As of June 30, 2016, the Organization has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Subsequent Events The Organization evaluated subsequent events through September 27, 2016, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. NOTE 2. CONCENTRATIONS Revenue received under contracts or grant agreements with the State of Alabama comprised approximately 27% and 29% of total revenue received for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
