Recommendation We recommend that management enhance its internal control structure, including financial close and reporting, to ensure timely filing of future Single Audit reporting packages Management Response Corrective Action:FNCH recognizes the critical importance of establishing robust internal controls to guarantee the timely preparation and accurate submission of reports and records for audit purposes, particularly in alignment with the requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200.512. To effectively implement these internal controls, management will enforce procedures for the timely preparation of all necessary reports and records, including the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). This will not only facilitate smoother audit processes but also ensure adherence to the 2 CFR 200.512. Management will train staff and establish timelines and responsibilities for report preparation and documentation to enhance compliance and streamline overall operations. Expected Outcome: -On-time Single Audit filings in compliance with federal rules. -Clear visibility and accountability for deadlines. -Reduced risk of penalties and funding delays. -Greater confidence from agencies and stakeholders.

Finding: 2023-002: Revised Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) Description of Finding: Expenditures reported on the SEFA required revision during the Single Audit due to some inaccuracies, including one omitted program, which occurred because review and reconciliation procedures were not fully sufficient. Cause: The underlying cause was insufficient internal controls over grant documentation review and the accounting of federal award activity. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian acknowledges the significance of this finding and the potential for noncompliance with Uniform Guidance with the grantors and Federal entities, as well as potential increased risk of omitted federal programs and incorrect major program determination. To remediate these issues, SacAsian will strengthen its internal controls over SEFA preparation by implementing a multi-layer review and reconciliation process. SEFA schedules will be prepared by the Director of Finance and reviewed by the newly engaged external CFO firm. Final review will be performed by the President & CEO. SacAsian will implement a more rigorous review of all grant agreements, including pass-through awards, to verify federal components and Assistance Listing Number (ALN) details to ensure all federally funded activity is fully identified and properly reported on the SEFA. The SEFA will be reconciled to the general ledger, federal award agreements, billings submitted, and other supporting documentation. In addition, directors overseeing federal programs will be required to confirm that all federal awards under their purview are completely and accurately reflected. These enhanced controls will be implemented for the 2024 audit and maintained for subsequent audit periods.

Management concurs with this finding. The delayed submission resulted from insufficient internal controls and oversight under prior leadership. The individuals previously responsible for this function are no longer with the Organization. Under current leadership, management has taken immediate steps to strengthen oversight and ensure future compliance. Knowledgeable personnel are now in place and have been made fully aware of all federal reporting requirements and deadlines. Management is actively developing formalized policies and procedures governing federal reporting, including a centralized compliance calendar, documented workflows, defined roles and responsibilities, and an internal review process prior to submission. These measures will be implemented by the first quarter of 2026.

The Organization recognizes the financial statement finding identified and we have taken corrective actions to ensure the accuracy of our financial controls and procedures moving forward. After the fiscal year ended in 2024, there has been a change in leadership within our financial department. With this transition, adjustments have been made to the financial procedures and controls to address potential lapses in the closing process. The Organization has revised the way it records, reconciles, and review financial entries. These changes were necessary to ensure proper U.S. GAAP practices were in place. These updates include accurately accruing accounts payable and accounts receivable, to ensure revenue and expenses are recognized in the proper period. We have also implemented a proper review process of the financial statements and any adjustments that are required to finalize them. The Organization believes it have fully addressed and corrected all procedures that led to this finding.
