December 31, 2016 Deloitte LLP 360 Main Street Suite 2300 Winnipeg MB R3C 3Z3 Canada Tel: (204) 942-0051 Fax: (204) 947-9390 www.deloitte.ca INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Board Members of Assiniboine Park Conservancy Inc. We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Assiniboine Park Conservancy Inc., which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2016, and the statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to the financial statements. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility 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 comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 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 in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Assiniboine Park Conservancy Inc. as at December 31, 2016 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations.

Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2016 1. DESCRIPTION OF ASSINIBOINE PARK CONSERVANCY INC. (“THE CONSERVANCY”) On July 16, 2006 Winnipeg City Council adopted a new governance model for Assiniboine Park (the “Park”), which called for the establishment of a not-for-profit entity to oversee the operation and development of the Park for the benefit of the community. Under the new governance model, Assiniboine Park Conservancy Inc. (the “Conservancy”) was created on April 17, 2008 with an independent Board of Directors, appointed with representation from all three levels of government and the private sector, to govern at arm’s length from the City of Winnipeg (the “City”). Through a fifty year Lease and Funding Agreement with the Conservancy which came into effect on October 1, 2010, the City retains ownership of the Park and all of its assets. Under this Agreement, the City provides an annual grant to support the operation and maintenance of the Park and is committed to a 25% share of the cost of major capital redevelopment of Park attractions and amenities. It is anticipated that the Province of Manitoba, the federal government and the private sector will also be partners in the redevelopment over the next 4 to 5 years. The Conservancy became a registered charity under the Income Tax Act on January 1, 2009 and is exempt from income taxes. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations and include the following significant accounting policies: a) Revenue recognition The Conservancy follows the deferral method of accounting for revenues. Unrestricted revenues are recognized as revenue when received or receivable if the amount to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Restricted revenues are recognized in accordance with the restrictions placed on them by the funder. Unrestricted gifts are recognized as revenue in the period in which the gifts are received. Gifts that are restricted by the donor are deferred, and then recognized in the year in which the related restriction is met. Non-monetary gifts are recorded at fair value in revenue when received. Pledges receivable from donors have not been recognized in these financial statements.
