Finding Reference Number: 2023-003 Description of Finding: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) was not reconciled and complete prior to the beginning of the audit. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: The identified issue pertaining to the incomplete SEFA is accurate and clearly defined. Corrective Action: • The Authority has since contracted with a consultant to assist staff with project and budget management of the same project the grant was funding. • Reporting requirements will be completed by the consultant or finance department going forward rather than the engineering manager. • Monthly meetings are held with staff from both accounting, engineering, and the grantor to discuss grant expenditures, invoice submittals and reimbursements, and project updates. • Director of Finance has looked into grant management certification courses in order to further educate staff on grant tracking and reporting requirements.
Finding Reference Number: 2023-002 Description of Finding: The Authority did not complete and submit the February 28, 2023 audited financial statements and single audit by the required deadline of November 30, 2023 or 9 months from fiscal year end.

Finding Reference Number: 2023-002 Description of Finding: The Authority did not complete and submit the February 28, 2023 audited financial statements and single audit by the required deadline of November 30, 2023 or 9 months from fiscal year end. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: Authority staff agrees the audited financial statement and single audit were significantly delayed. Corrective Action: • Development of audit timeline and “needs” list to be compiled from all staff prior to audit submittal. • Engage with auditors earlier in order to meet required reporting deadlines. • Implementation of month-end closing process rather than waiting for year-end to complete all reconciliations. • Begin contacting vendors for estimates on any potential accruals prior to the end of the fiscal year.

A standing monthly review meeting has been established between Finance and Engineering to review a list of current grants and the associated activity. This meeting will include discussing any future or proposed grant applications as well. Additionally, Finance and the audit team are meeting to review proper recording of the grants in the general ledger to ensure proper representation in the financial statements.

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. Responsible Party: Ryan Fong, Director of Finance, 916-446-7883, rfong@sacasiancc.org Pat Fong Kushida, President & CEO, 916-446-7883, patfk@sacasiancc.org Projected Completion Date: December 2025

Finding: 2023-001: Material Weakness - Untimely Audit Submission in Accordance with 0MB Uniform Guidance Description of Finding: The Sacramento Asian-Pacific Chamber of Commerce (SacAsian) did not submit its December 31, 2023 Single Audit reporting package—including the audited financial statements, Data Collection Form, prior-year status, and Corrective Action Plan—to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the required deadline. Cause: The submission was delayed because the Single Audit could not be completed on time due to change in audit firm and staffing shortages. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian understands the seriousness of this deficiency and the need for strict adherence to timely audit submissions per the OMB Uniform Guidance. Additional staff have been hired to assist in accounting processes, including a Controller to review all accounting processes and procedures with the Director of Finance and implement best practice recommendations and stronger month-end closing procedures and schedule. The delay in performing the 2023 audit was caused by a change in auditors. Our previous auditor did not have the capacity to continue our audit engagement due to staff shortages related to COVID. A new audit firm identified and engaged. However, there were delays in beginning the audit, and staffing challenges internally with completing the audit such that deadlines were not met. Additionally, an external finance and accounting firm was hired in September 2025 to provide additional capacity and high-level support to bring our audits current by March 2026. The additional staffing, external expertise, and improved procedures will prevent untimely submissions in future years. Responsible Party: Ryan Fong, Director of Finance, 916-446-7883, rfong@sacasiancc.org Pat Fong Kushida, President & CEO, 916-446-7883, patfk@sacasiancc.org Projected Completion Date: March 2026

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.

New personnel are now assigned responsibility for compliance and reporting, and management has completed a full review of all reporting obligations across federal awards. Management is in the process of developing standardized grant reporting procedures, enhanced tracking tools, and formal internal review controls to ensure timely and accurate submissions going forward.

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.

Finding 2023-005 Assistance Listings: 93.567 & 93.576 Issue: Timely submission of Single Audit We respectfully acknowledge the Single Audit was not submitted timely. We were in a period of growth and building an in-house finance team. Prior to 2024, an outside consulting team performed the accounting function.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: According to Appendix: American Rescue Plan CSLFRF HVAC Replacement and Improvement Grant Assurances of the 2021 CSLFRF HVAC Application it is stated the LEA/grantee assures: IX. It will submit such reports to the state educational agency as the state educational agency and Secretary may require to enable the state educational agency and the Secretary to perform their duties under the program; The LEA has also submitted an official correspondence to the Auditors from the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Education’s Director of the Office of Federal Pandemic Relief Programs stating the following: On April 25, 2023, the Virginia Department of Education conducted monitoring to ensure that certain federally funded programs and activities supported with Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) formula grants; ESSER and Governor’s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) state setaside grants; and Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (CSLFRF) HVAC grants were implemented as stipulated by law. These federally funded programs were reviewed as operated by Richmond City Public Schools. Furthermore, RPS is a subrecipient. As such it is our stance that RPS was not required to create or submit quarterly financial activity reports to US Treasury. We were also not required to submit quarterly financial reports to the recipient (i.e. the Commonwealth of Virginia). Instead, RPS regularly submitted expenditures for reimbursement to VDOE on a nearly monthly basis via OMEGA. We also maintained financial records (invoices, GL transactions) via AS400 and LINQ and conducted annual single audits as required by the Single Audit Act & 2 CFR part 200, subpart F. We also complied with all monitoring activities conducted by VDOE. In turn, VDOE (the award recipient) used these artifacts to create and submit its quarterly financial reports to US Treasury, as required by statute. For more evidence of this "passthrough" structure of reporting, see the attached SLFRF Compliance and Reporting Guidance published by US Treasury and Updated October 2025 Part 2 Section B (p. 21-22) for a detail of which entities are required to submit quarterly reports. The following recipients are required to submit quarterly Project and Expenditure Reports: - States and U.S. territories - Tribal governments that are allocated more than $30 million in SLFRF funding - Metropolitan cities and counties with a population that exceeds 250,000 residents Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds C - Metropolitan cities and counties with a population below 250,000 residents that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding - NEUs [Non-Entitlement Units of Government] that are allocated more than $10 million in SLFRF funding RPS does not fall into any of the aforementioned categories. We humble ask that you reconsider this finding.

FINDING 2023-004 Information on the federal program: Subject: Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities – Reporting Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Agriculture Assistance Listing Number: 10.760 Federal Award Number: N/A Pass-Through Entity: N/A Compliance Requirements: Reporting Audit Findings: Material Weakness, Noncompliance Condition: The District did not have proper controls in place to ensure that the RD442-2 and RD 442-3 forms were filled out and submitted. Context: Form RD442-2 and Form RD442-3 were not submitted to the granting agency. The District may submit the financial data in other forms, however, the required reporting information was not submitted at all for the year under audit. The forms are required to be submitted on GAAP accrual basis. Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The third-party accounting firm will prepare the required forms which will be reviewed by the Board of Directors prior to submission. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: The third-party accounting firm and the Board of Directors will implement the corrective action plan, which will go into effect with the next required submission for 2025.
Management’s response - In response to the finding indicated in the governance letter, management recognizes that the physical work performed for this expense occurred in FY23, but this is also an ongoing project and the period of performance for the ARP ESSER grant ends on 9/30/2024 not 6/30/23.

Management’s response - In response to the finding indicated in the governance letter, management recognizes that the physical work performed for this expense occurred in FY23, but this is also an ongoing project and the period of performance for the ARP ESSER grant ends on 9/30/2024 not 6/30/23. Therefore, Management believes their interpretation is also correct. All federal and state grants with a period of performance ending 6/30/23 were accrued back to FY23 ensuring payments and receipts activities were in the correct time frame. Final reimbursement was requested, and the grants were closed out. The implementation of our new financial system also added an extra layer of complexity to our end of year accounting. Work in 2 different systems that do not work cohesively with each other was very challenging. We respect and appreciate the work of our auditors and understand that at times we will disagree and interpret things differently, which is what happened in regard to the expense for the HVAC project surrounding the "period of performance" language.

2023-007 – Management's Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards was incomplete and required material adjustments. Auditor Recommendation: Management should prepare a summary sheet for each significant grant agreement to track its major terms, including whether the grant included Federal funds. This sheet should be reviewed by someone other than the preparer and should be utilized in preparing the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards at the end of the year. Action Taken: The SEFA methodology was revised to include all federal funds Name of responsible person: Czarina Luna, Controller Anticipated completion date: Complete as of November 2025
