Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance and Noncompliance Related to Reporting for the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act. Contact Person: Sheyna Wisdom, Executive Director, AOOS Management Response: AOOS concurs with the finding and acknowledges that internal procedures and oversight were insufficient to ensure timely FFATA subaward reporting. Corrective Action: To address this deficiency, AOOS will update its subaward monitoring controls to ensure full compliance with 2 CFR Part 170. Specifically, AOOS will: • Assign dedicated responsibility to designated staff to file subaward reports in the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) by the end of the month following subaward execution. • Implement a monthly supervisory review to verify FSRS filing submissions and archive confirmation records in the subaward files. • Retroactively submit the missing FY25 FFATA reports into FSRS. 1007 W.

Corrective action: To address this deficiency, AOOS, in coordination with its fiscal sponsor (Alaska SeaLife Center), will establish and formalize a standardized procedure for cash draw requests. Specifically, AOOS will: • Implement documentation for every ASAP drawdown request, which will include detailed general ledger expenditure reports, invoice registers, or transaction listings matching the exact draw amount. • Establish a dual-review process requiring formal written sign-off by both AOOS and Alaska SeaLife Center prior to executing funds transfers in ASAP. • Maintain permanent digital archives of all draw support packets and perform quarterly reconciliations between ASAP drawdowns, general ledger accounts, and SEFA reporting.

Explanation and Reasons for Disagreement: We do not believe there was a systemic lack of effective internal controls or noncompliance throughout the audit period. We determined that the funds were fully obligated and reported the amount based on that interpretation, as was done on the previous reports submitted.

Finding 2025-004 - Various Federal Programs: Cash Management- Excess Federal Cash, Untimely Reconciliations [Material Weakness}: Condition - At June 30, 2025, the College maintained excess federal cash balances across multiple federal programs, indicating that cash drawdowns and/or payable balances were not aligned with immediate cash needs for allowable program expenditures. These balances represented federal funds drawn or recorded as payable to federal agencies that were not supported by actual and immediate allowable program expenditures at year-end. The following table summarizes excess federal cash balances identified by program as of June 30, 2025: "Federal Program" "Excess Cash" "Minority Science and Engineering Improvement Program" 120,031 "Science Consortium of Minority Schools" 169,907 "NSF - Empowerment of Undergraduate STEM Majors" 94,801 "NSF - Tennessee Louis Stokes TLSAMP" 54,834 "Title III" 455,679 "FUTURE" 188,215 "Total Identified Excess Cash" 1,083,467 The College did not adequately reconcile federal cash activity to underlying grant expenditures on a timely basis and did not ensure that drawdowns were limited to amounts necessary to meet immediate cash needs. In addition, the College lacked effective monitoring controls to identify and resolve excess cash positions across federal programs in a timely manner. Federal bank reconciliations were untimely and error prone. Corrections occurred only after auditor inquiry. Federal accounts also earned excess interest. Corrective Action Plan The College requests drawdowns for Title Ill and FUTURE programs on a reimbursable basis, including review and approval procedures. Of the total amount identified for the Title Ill program, a $181,433 receivable related to FY2025. The balance related to prior year(s) activity. The College will review its Federal program cost allocation procedures to ensure all eligible costs are properly identified and supported going forward. The College has engaged two accounting firms to assist with staff training and bring all reconciliations current. In addition, standard month-end and year-end closing procedures will be implemented to address timely, accurate Federal program reconciliations and audit readiness going forward. The College experienced significant staff turnover within its business office. In addition, the College is undergoing conversion to a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system which affected its ability to complete some functions within a timely manner.

Finding 2025-003 - U.S. Department of Education [ED) - Federal Work Study - Noncompliance with Cash Management [Material Weakness): Condition -As of June 30, 2025, the College reported excess federal cash of $415,971 related to the Federal Work-Study Program. The excess cash represented cumulative federal funds drawn down through the federal payment system that were not disbursed or allowable Federal Work-Study payroll costs at year-end. The excess cash balance included amounts related to prior award years that had not been fully liquidated through reimbursement of allowable student wage expenditures or returned to the U.S. Department of Education as of June 30, 2025. Corrective Action Plan The College requests drawdowns for the Federal Work Study Program on a reimbursable basis, including review and approval procedures.

July 28, 2026 U.S. Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Ave., NW Washington, D.C. 20230 Association of University Technology Managers, Inc. (the Association) and its affiliate AUTM Foundation, Inc. (the Foundation, and collectively, the Organization) respectfully submit the following corrective action plan for the year ended December 31, 2025. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Blue & Company, LLC 250 West Main Street, Suite 2900 Lexington, Kentucky 40507 The finding from the schedule of findings and questioned costs (the Schedule) for the year ended December 31, 2025 is discussed below and is numbered consistently with the number assigned in the Schedule. Identifying Number: 2025-001 Finding: Material weakness related to consolidation of affiliate. In previous years the Association did not consolidate the assets, liabilities, net assets, revenues, and expenses of the Foundation with the financials of the Association. This was incorrect because, under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 958-810, the Association has a controlling financial interest in the Foundation—as its sole corporate member, with authority to appoint and remove all of the Foundation’s trustees—and an economic interest in the Foundation, so consolidation is required. The 2025 consolidated financial statements correct this, including a restatement of the beginning balance of net assets. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: The issue occurred due to a misunderstanding of GAAP rules related to affiliated entities. Previously, management’s understanding was that common board members were the primary consideration for consolidation. The Organization has (1) consolidated the Foundation effective for the year ended December 31, 2025, with beginning net assets restated and intercompany balances eliminated; and (2) will implement a documented annual affiliated-entity assessment, performed as part of the year-end close, under which finance evaluates each related or affiliated entity against the ASC 958-810 criteria—controlling financial interest and economic interest—to determine whether consolidation is required. The assessment will be documented, reviewed and approved by the Senior Director of Finance, and reported to the Audit Committee. At this time, the Organization has no affiliated entity other than the Foundation, whose consolidation will be re-confirmed under this control each year. Estimated Completion Date: The correction is complete with the issuance of the 2025 consolidated financial statements; the recurring annual control is effective beginning with the December 31, 2026 year-end close. Responsible Personnel: Cody Embry, Senior Director of Finance, with oversight by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. If you have any questions or would like any additional information regarding these matters, please let us know and we will be happy to provide. Sincerely, L. Cody Embry, CPA Senior Director of Finance

Management should also implement periodic monitoring procedures to ensure consistent compliance across all school sites. Management Response Corrective Action Beginning with the 2025–2026 school year, we have implemented a requirement that all kitchen managers complete a daily meal count form provided by the New Mexico Public Education Department (NMPED) in collaboration with the Student Success and Wellness Bureau (SSWB). This documentation ensures accountability and verifies that reimbursable meals are being served for both breakfast and lunch. Additionally, we are currently exploring the implementation of a software program to further strengthen meal count accountability.

Management Response/Corrective Action Plan: The District was awarded funding with the Congressional funds with all parties aware the project would be substantially completed before funding would be finalized. Much of the wait was due to the review and approval of the Build America, Buy America (BABA) waiver. Unfortunately, the agency that trained MSAD54 staff on the process recommended for the request of funds to be made. Subsequent all funding requests were approved by HUD representatives prior to receiving the BABA waiver. The Superintendent recognized the potential error and contacted HUD who worked with the District to correct their mistake and return funds.
