Finding #2024-001 – Material Weakness – Accounting Recordkeeping All Programs Other Condition During the year ended June 30, 2024, management was unable to provide timely year-end trial balances in accordance with U.S. GAAP without significant adjusting journal entries required to accurately reflect the underlying accounting transactions. Recommendation We recommend that individuals overseeing the accounting and finance function continue to review the Organization's current accounting policies and update existing policies or implement new policies, as necessary, to ensure that accounting records are accurately maintained throughout the year. In addition, we recommend the Organization develop and document formal year-end closing procedures, including detailed closing checklists, assignment of responsibilities, and timelines for the preparation and review of reconciliations, trial balances, and supporting schedules. Monthly and quarterly account reconciliations, as appropriate, should be completed and reviewed timely throughout the year to facilitate an efficient year-end close process and ensure that complete and accurate trial balances and related supporting documentation are prepared and reviewed on a timely basis after year-end. Management’s Corrective Action Plan Management concurs with this finding. The delays in maintaining timely accounting records, completing reconciliations, and preparing year-end financial statements were primarily the result of significant turnover within the Accounting and Finance Department during the fiscal year, combined with the operational demands associated with the merger of HopePHL and Youth Service, Inc. These circumstances created a backlog of transaction processing and account reconciliations that ultimately delayed the preparation of accurate trial balances and required yearend adjustments to ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP. Since the conclusion of the audit period, management has implemented several corrective actions to strengthen the organization’s financial reporting processes and internal controls. These actions include:  Rebuilding and stabilizing the Accounting and Finance Department through the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel.  Establishing defined month-end closing procedures, including assigned responsibilities and timelines for completing reconciliations and reviewing financial activity.  Implementing a monthly close calendar with management oversight to ensure timely completion of accounting tasks and identification of outstanding issues.  Strengthening supervisory review of account reconciliations, journal entries, and financial reporting to improve the accuracy and completeness of accounting records throughout the year.  Monitoring compliance with financial reporting deadlines through regular meetings between Finance leadership and executive management. Management believes these corrective actions have substantially addressed the conditions that led to this finding and will help ensure that accounting records are maintained in accordance with U.S. GAAP, financial statements are prepared on a timely basis, and future reporting requirements, including those under 2 CFR §200.512(a)(1), are met.

Description of Finding: The School did not submit the Single Audit Reporting Package to the FAC or the PDE prior to the March 31, 2025, deadline. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: the School acknowledges the finidng related to the late remittance of the Single Audit Reporting Package to the FAC and the PDE. The late submission resulted frm inadequate monitoring of regulatory reporting deadlines and the absence of a formal process for tracking, reviewing, and submitting the Single Audit REporting Package. Responsibilities for completing and submitting the package were not clearly documented, and there was no secondar review to verify that all required submissions had been completed on time. Corrective Action: The School will remit the Single Audit Reporting Package to the FAC and the PDE within 30 days of when the June 30, 2024 audit is completed and issued. The School will retain documentation of the submission and confirmation of receipt. Moving forward the School will develop and maintain a compliance calendar identifying all federal and state reporting. The School will develop written proce-dures outlining the steps for preparing, reviewing, approving, and submitting the Single Audit Reporting Package deadlines, including Single Audit submission requirements. Projected Completion Date: The School has hired an outside accounting and management firm effective July 1, 2025. The School is cur-rently working with the firm on the corrective actions outlined here. The School will remit the Single Audit Reporting Package to the FAC and the PDE, and develop written policies as outlined above within 30 days from the issuance of the June 30, 2024 audit.

Views of Responsible Officials: Management acknowledges the conditions noted in this finding. The delays in audit completion and account reconciliations were primarily attributable to significant staff transition within the accounting department during the fiscal year. ICFJ has since stabilized its accounting function and is committed to implementing a formal monthly close process to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting going forward. A monthly close checklist will be developed and maintained, with documented evidence of review and approval. All financial and compliance documents will be filed in a centralized, organized system to permit prompt retrieval.  Anticipated completion date: 12/31/26  Responsible position: Chief Financial Officer

Recommendation We recommend that UVNR strengthen its financial close and audit preparation procedures by: - Establishing a formal year-end closing and Single Audit calendar; - Assigning responsibility for preparing the financial statements, SEFA, and audit schedules; - Monitoring audit requests and outstanding documentation throughout the audit; - Establishing internal deadlines sufficiently in advance of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse deadline; and - Providing requested documentation to the auditor by agreed-upon dates to allow sufficient time to complete and file the audit timely. Management Response Corrective Action: Management agrees with the finding, and we recognize the importance of strengthening the year-end financial close and audit preparation process to ensure timely completion of the annual audit and Single Audit. The late completion of the audit, and consequently the late filing of the Data Collection Form, resulted from a combination of circumstances, including challenges encountered during UVNR’s audit preparation process, as well as staff transitions within both the UVNR's outsourced accounting firm and our auditing firm during the same period. To address the finding, UVNR will implement a formal year-end closing and Single Audit calendar that establishes key milestones, internal deadlines, and assigned responsibilities for all financial reporting and audit-related activities. Specific staff will be designated as responsible for the preparation and review of the financial statements, Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), and all required audit schedules and supporting documentation. Management will also implement a centralized process for tracking auditor requests and monitoring the status of outstanding documentation throughout the audit to ensure timely responses. Internal deadlines will be established well in advance of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse filing deadline to provide sufficient time for management review, auditor fieldwork, resolution of audit questions, and final report issuance. These corrective actions are intended to improve the efficiency of the financial close process, strengthen accountability, and ensure that future audits are completed and submitted within all required deadlines. Many of the recommendations have been established and are being implemented for the upcoming 2025 annual and Single Audit to ensure we meet the Federal Audit Clearinghouse deadline in September 2026.
