INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT Board of Directors America’s Blood Centers and Affiliate Washington, DC We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of America’s Blood Centers and its Subsidiary and Affiliate (The Foundation for America’s Blood Centers), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of activities and changes in net assets and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of America’s Blood Centers and its Subsidiary and Affiliate as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organizations America’s Blood Centers (ABC) is a non-profit membership organization that was incorporated in Arizona in 1962. ABC’s primary goal is to provide a forum for blood center administrators, medical directors, and senior management to exchange information, discuss pertinent issues, and work together to improve the quality and efficiency of service to hospitals, patients, and blood donors. Its membership is composed entirely of non-profit blood banks located throughout the United States and Canada. Blood Counts LLC, is a wholly owned subsidiary of ABC and is considered a disregarded entity for tax purposes. Activity related to ABC’s AIM I software licensing agreement with NHS Blood and Transplant (“NHS”), is reported through Blood Counts LLC. As of March 31, 2016, this project was divested and all remaining assets were transferred to ABC – see Note 15 for details. The Foundation for America’s Blood Centers (the “Foundation” or “FABC”) is a non-profit organization that was incorporated in Arizona in 1997. ABC established the Foundation to research public perceptions and motivations regarding blood donation and blood supply, conduct research on community health needs regarding blood services, disseminate research results to the general public and other interested parties, publicize and promote the need for volunteer blood donation and support for blood donation programs, and to coordinate national blood donor recruitment activities conducted in conjunction with local community blood programs. ABC controls the Foundation through a majority voting interest of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, an economic interest, and inter-related management. In such circumstances, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that financial statements of the controlling organization be consolidated with the accounts of the controlled organization. Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation The financial statements of ABC and Affiliate have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, and accordingly reflect all significant receivables, payables, and other liabilities. The financial statements include the accounts of the ABC and Foundation. All significant intra-entity transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation. Cash and Cash Equivalents For financial statement purposes, ABC and the Foundation consider all funds held at depository institutions with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable Accounts past due are individually analyzed for collectibility. When all collection efforts have been exhausted, the account is written off against bad debt expense. Management estimates that all receivables are fully collectible. Therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recognized.


MARCH 31, 2016 AND 2015

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Pledges Receivable Grants and contributions are recognized when a donor makes a promise to give to the Foundation that is, in substance, unconditional. Donor-restricted grants and contributions are reported as increases in temporarily or permanently restricted net assets depending on the nature of the restrictions. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets. Management believes the amount of pledges receivable is fully collectible and no allowance for doubtful accounts is deemed necessary.

Investments Investments are comprised of marketable securities and are reported at fair value. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in future statements of activities. Property and Equipment Property and equipment with a cost greater than $2,500 is capitalized as property and equipment. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the asset. Net Assets Resources are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into net asset groups established according to their nature and purpose and based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. The net assets groups are as follows:

Unrestricted Net Assets: Undesignated: represents funds available at management’s discretion to fund ABC’s and the Foundation’s general operations.

Designated: represents funds designated by ABC’s Board of Directors to be used for future uncertainties, contingencies and special projects. Temporarily Restricted Net Assets - represents resources received for member association programs (i.e., advertising campaigns, public awareness and marketing initiatives, awards, and scholarships) that are restricted as to their use and resources to be received in future periods. ABC and the Foundation classify all such resources received as temporarily restricted and reports amounts released from restrictions when expenditures are incurred or when the time period has elapsed.

Permanently Restricted Net Assets – represents contributions received or pledged through the endowment campaign that are permanently restricted from use.


MARCH 31, 2016 AND 2015

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act During 2008 the District of Columbia enacted the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA). In August 2008 the FASB released FASB Staff Position on UPMIFA which provides guidance on the classification of endowment fund net assets for states that have enacted versions of UPMIFA. Under UPMIFA all unappropriated endowment fund assets are considered restricted. The Foundation’s spending policy stipulates that all earnings in any given year be spent for the established purpose of the endowment fund. Revenue Recognition ABC recognizes newsletter subscription revenue on a monthly basis over the term of the subscription. Membership assessments are allocated to revenue on a monthly basis during the year. Both ABC and its affiliate immediately recognized unrestricted contributions and interest earned on funds held on deposit. Advertising Costs All advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, totaled $4,350 and $4,620, respectively. Allocation of Expenses ABC and its affiliate allocate salaries and benefits, travel, consulting fees, and certain other costs to each department based on actual resources used in each program area. Occupancy expense, depreciation and amortization, and other fixed expenses are considered to be supporting costs of the various programs of ABC and are classified as General and Administrative expenses. The Foundation classifies all expenses related to the awarding of grants and other operating activities as General and Administrative expenses. It allocates all expenses on grant awards to a separate expense function. Income Tax Status ABC is exempt from the payment of federal income taxes on its exempt activities under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Foundation is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is classified as an organization that is not a private foundation. ABC had advertising revenue subject to unrelated business income tax for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

ABC and the Foundation have adopted a policy that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements. The policy prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement principles for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return that are not certain to be realized. The implementation of this policy had no impact on the Organizations’ financial statements as of and for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.


MARCH 31, 2016 AND 2015

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (CONTINUED) Fair Value Measurements Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ABC and the Foundation account for a significant portion of their financial instruments at fair value or consider fair value in their measurement. ABC and the Foundation account for certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value under various accounting literature, including, Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations. ABC and the Foundation also account for certain assets at fair value under applicable industry guidance. Fair Value Hierarchy In accordance with Fair Value Measurements, ABC and the Foundation have categorized their financial instruments, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that ABC and the Foundation have the ability to access.

Level 2 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include, among others, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active market or non-active market.

Level 3 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.


MARCH 31, 2016 AND 2015

(9)

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (CONTINUED) Use of 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassification Certain amounts in the year 2015 have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in year 2016. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported change in net assets or net asset balance as of March 31, 2015. Subsequent Events In preparing these financial statements, ABC and the Foundation have evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through July 12, 2016, the date the financial statements were available for issuance.

NOTE 2 CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that subject ABC and the Foundation to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents deposited with financial institutions and investments managed by investment manager which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits.

NOTE 3 PLEDGES RECEIVABLE

NOTE 4 INVESTMENTS

Investments are reported at their fair market value. In general, investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risk.

As required by U.S. GAAP, net assets of the endowment funds are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. The Board of Directors of the Foundation interpreted the District of Columbia Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gifts as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of this interpretation, the Foundation classifies as permanently restricted net assets (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 the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the funds. The Foundation’s endowment investment policy is focused on preservation of capital as well as providing income for operations. Amounts are invested in stock, mutual funds and cash equivalents and the endowment net assets and activity consist of the following:
