KUAT COMMUNICATIONS GROUP Fiscal Year 2007 Report with Audited Financial Statements

June 30, 2007

Dear friends,

In the land grant tradition of Arizona’s first university, The University of Arizona, the KUAT Communications Group (KUAT) provides information, entertainment and educational outreach across multiple distribution platforms. Our sta- tions have the unique ability to connect thousands of Southern Arizonans instantly, to their community and the world through the intellectual and creative resources of The University of Arizona.

KUAT has spent the last 48 years solidifying its reputation as a high-quality, trusted source for lifelong learning. When limited federal support for the operation of public stations began in 1968, the community and the University reached a turning point – it was clear that media could be used to enhance everyday learning opportunities. Today, KUAT is undergoing another historic turning point. A nearly half-century of experience in creating and delivering quality programming and educational services coupled with the entrance into the digital delivery age, gives this enterprise new opportunities to bring learning to life for thousands in Arizona and millions globally, all under the moniker of The University of Arizona.

With the goal of increasing organizational and fiscal efficiencies, this year KUAT implemented staff reorganizations that focus our human resources into areas of core competencies. Today, all content producers collaborate in a single workgroup to provide better in-depth coverage of news and community issues and to increase the diversity of topics on all media platforms: television, radio and the web. Similarly, engineering and technology positions work together to increase operational efficiency and productivity. The group’s development division was also restructured to separate membership, underwriting and major giving functions to allow our staff to focus in specific and discrete areas of sup- port.

It has also been a year of transition for the KUAT Public Advisory Board as the Board moves from a passive advisory role to an active advisory and development role, working to help the organization retain existing (and attract new) supporters. Board members have provided immeasurable help in connecting KUAT leadership to the communities served by the organization’s broadcast, cable and online resources. Input and support from the Board has been in- valuable to KUAT in the past and will become even more vital over the next several years as the industry and KUAT complete the transition from analog to digital broadcasting, providing new opportunities for expanded programs and services for the community.

In a mutually beneficial partnership, The University of Arizona, station management and the community work together to ensure the stations and services provided by the KUAT Communications Group meet the needs and interests of viewers and listeners throughout Southern Arizona.

Sincerely yours,

Jack Gibson Leslie Tolbert, Ph.D. John Escher Director & General Manager, Vice President for Research, Graduate Chairman, KUAT Communications Group Studies and Economic Development, KUAT Public Advisory Board The University of Arizona

Management’s Discussion & Analysis

Economic Outlook (continued) Independent Auditors’ Report Gift revenue continues to be a substantial source of our Organization’s funding. Planned giving continues to fund a significant portion of the digital conversion project. KUAT remains dependent on general appropriations from The University of Arizona and grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The KUAT Communications Group The University of Arizona The KUAT Communications Group is ultimately subject to the same economic variables that affect other Tucson, Arizona financial entities (especially competition from other local non-profit organizations for philanthropic donations), making it difficult to project future outcomes. Management is well aware of the challenges We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the KUAT Communications Group (“KUAT”), a ahead and is working diligently and responsibly to continue to provide high quality public broadcasting and division of The University of Arizona, (the “University”) as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of educational services. revenues, expenses and changes in net assets and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of The University’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the KUAT Communications Group as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The management’s discussion and analysis on pages 4 through 9 are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United Fiscal Year 2 007 Report Year Fiscal States of America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Training Positions KUAT currently offers opportunities for on-the-job paid train- ing in television production. The two-year program provides a variety of training sessions relating to the ongoing operation and television production activities.

Students/Interns KUAT employs University students in key broadcast produc- tion roles, allowing them to receive the benefit of professional training alongside experienced staff. Still others work in support positions or are involved as student interns, adding practical knowledge to their classroom work. KUAT accepts interns from the University of Arizona in several departments throughout the organization. Placement is based on matching the skills and academic needs of the intern with the needs of the department.

Volunteers Fiscal Year 2 007 Report Year Fiscal As a public media service, KUAT’s television and radio stations are able to operate at maximum efficiency thanks to the work of hundreds of volunteers from the community. These individu- als perform many different duties from answering phones during regular membership campaigns to assisting in other daily opera- tions throughout the organization.

Diversity As a federally licensed broadcaster, the KUAT Communica- tions Group is required to report on its progress in attracting a diverse workforce. This requirement of the broadcast license is reviewed by the FCC at license renewal time and periodically throughout the year. Beyond the intent of the FCC requirement and University EEO policy is management’s strong commitment to embrace the spirit of both − to make the workplace and the content offered on KUAT stations reflect the communities served by KUAT.
