ANNUAL REPORT 2003

SPECIAL BULLETIN NO. 55 SEPTEMBER 2004 COMMUNIQUÉ NO. 55 SEPTEMBRE 2004 CHAIR OF THE BOARD AND PRESIDENT AND CEO’S REPORT Marnie Spears and Roger Wheelock

Royal Botanical Gardens’ mix of natural lands, display gardens, interpreted collections, and rare and endangered plant and animal species spread over 1,100 hectares makes it a highly complex organization. We are classified as a botanical garden, a nature reserve, a farm, a cultural agency, a charity, a museum, an educational institution, and a scientific organization to name just a few of our labels.

Our mandate is legislated by the province of Ontario and is as broad as the diversity of our lands. It states that we are to be responsible stewards of our gardens, collections and natural lands, and to generate knowledge for the benefit of future generations. However, while adhering to our mandate, we must pay attention to cash flow, which, for us is as essential as breathing.

1 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To the Members of Royal Botanical Gardens

We have audited the statement of financial position of Royal Botanical Gardens as at December 31, 2003 and the statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the organization's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the organization as at December 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.
