Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of West Virginia University at Parkersburg, Foundation, Inc., which represents 100% of the total assets and total revenues of the discretely component unit of West Virginia University at Parkersburg. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the West Virginia University at Parkersburg, Foundation, Inc., is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issues by the Comptroller General of 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 from material misstatement. The financial statements of the West Virginia University at Parkersburg Foundation, Inc. were not audited in accordance with Government Auditing Standards. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. 1 Board of Governors West Virginia University at Parkersburg Opinions In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of West Virginia University at Parkersburg as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, schedule of proportionate share of net pension liability and contributions, as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 24, 2017, on our consideration of West Virginia University at Parkersburg's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering West Virginia University at Parkersburg's internal control over financial reporting and compliance. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania January 24, 2017 2 WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY AT PARKERSBURG Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) Year Ended June 30, 2016 Overview The Management's Discussion and Analysis is required supplementary information and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). This section of West Virginia University at Parkersburg’s (“WVU at Parkersburg”, “WVUP”, or “College”) annual financial report provides an overview of WVUP’s financial performance during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the previous fiscal year. Comparative analysis is also presented for fiscal year 2015 compared to fiscal year 2014. The primary focus is on fiscal year 2016. WVUP’s annual report consists of three basic financial statements: the statement of net position, the statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net position, and the statement of cash flows. These statements focus on the financial condition, the results of operations, and cash flows of WVU at Parkersburg. Each of these statements is discussed below. Financial Highlights At June 30, 2016, WVUP’s total net position decreased from the previous year-end by $643,000. The decrease in net position is primarily due to a significant loss on disposal of capital assets, as well as increases in other post- employment benefits liability (“OPEB”). These changes were partially offset by increases in cash and cash equivalents, as well as decreases in accounts payable, unearned revenue, notes payable to West Virginia University, and notes payable to the Commission. Total revenues increased by 1.2%, mainly due to increases in student tuition and fees, Federal grants and contracts, and payments made and expenses incurred on behalf of WVU Parkersburg, offset by decreases in State grants and contracts, State appropriations, and Federal Pell grants. Total expenses increased 8.5% from prior year mainly because of increases in other nonoperating expenses related to losses incurred from the sale of capital assets and supplies and other services, offset by decreases in salaries and wages and scholarships and fellowships. Net Position The statements of net position present the assets (current and noncurrent), deferred outflows of resources, liabilities (current and noncurrent), deferred inflows of resources,
