For more about the information contained in this condensed, comparative financial information, we recommend a close review of the accompanying audited financial statements <br />beginning on page 6. Analysis of Financial Position and Operating Results Net assets increased from $854,459 in 2008 to $893,877 in 2009, a difference of $39,418 due to revenues exceeding <br />expenses by that amount. For 2009 the District has a net asset reserve for emergencies established by the Board of Directors in the amount of $3,770. Cash and cash equivalents for 2009 <br />decreased $9,449. Cash and cash equivalents represent approximately 32.5% of the District’s total net assets at December 31, 2009. Net capital assets increased $30,852 in 2009. The District’s <br />Liabilities at December 31, 2009 decreased $27,889 from those at December 31, 2008. This decrease was primarily related to the payment of long term debt. The District’s 2009 operating <br />revenues decreased $24,067 over 2008. The decrease in revenue is a result of less water use by customers during the summer months due primarily to a wetter than normal spring. The District’s <br />operating expenses decreased by .5% to $96,682 in 2009. As a result, the operating loss for the year was $17,449. That is $19,021 more than 2008. The decrease in operating expenses was <br />primarily due to lower repairs and maintenance costs for 2009. Net 2009 non-operating revenues had a $10,321 decrease due to lower investment earnings related primarily to much lower <br />interest rates. <br />5 Cash Flows Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $9,449 in 2009. For more information about these changes in net assets, the operating activities, and cash flows see the accompanying <br />audited financial statements beginning on page 6. Budgetary Discussion Actual revenues were $1,085,027 less than the 2009 budget related primarily to deferring the issuance of bonded <br />debt. Capital Asset and Long Term Debt Discussion The District depreciates its infrastructure assets. See Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements – Summary of Significant Accounting <br />Policies – Capital Assets on page 11 and Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements – Capital Assets on page 15. The District has various activities in process relating primarily to the <br />acquisition of water rights. The District’s long term debt decreased by $29,827 during 2009. The District did not issue any new debt during the year. Other There are no currently known <br />facts, decisions, or conditions, which are expected to, or may likely, have a significant effect on the financial condition and results of operation in subsequent reporting periods. <br />Requests for information This financial report is designed to provide a general overview of the District’s finances for all those with an interest in the government’s finances.

Water and Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2009 10 Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District <br />is a quasi-municipal corporation governed pursuant to provisions of the Colorado Special District Act. The District was established to provide water and sanitation services within its <br />jurisdictional boundaries. The financial statements of the Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the <br />United States of America as applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting <br />and financial reporting principles. The significant accounting policies are described below. Financial Reporting Entity In accordance with governmental accounting standards, the Thunderbird <br />Water & Sanitation District has considered the possibility of inclusion of additional entities in its financial statements. The definition of the reporting entity is based primarily <br />on financial accountability. The District is not financially accountable for any other entity, nor is the District a component unit of any other governmental entity; therefore, no other <br />entities are included in the District’s financial statements. Basis of Accounting Enterprise fund accounting is utilized by the District in accordance with accounting principles generally <br />accepted in the United States of America. Enterprise funds are accounted for using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized <br />when they are earned and expenses are recorded when incurred. Depreciation is computed and recorded as an operating expense. Expenditures for capital outlay are recognized as increases <br />in capital assets. Retirement of bonds is recorded as a reduction of liabilities. The District distinguishes operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues <br />and expenses generally result from providing services in connection with the District’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the District are charges to <br />customers for sales and service. Operating expenses include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not <br />meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. The District applies Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and Accounting Principles <br />Board opinions issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements, in which case, GASB prevails. The District has elected <br />not to follow FASB pronouncements issued since that date. <br />Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2009 11 Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Basis of Accounting <br />(continued) The District follows the provisions of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34 Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis <br />– for State and Local Governments. Statement No. 34 establishes standards for external financial reporting for all state and local governmental entities which includes a management’s <br />discussion and analysis section; a statement of net assets; a statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in net assets; and a statement of cash flows. It requires the classification <br />of net assets into three components: invested in capital assets, net of related debt; restricted; and unrestricted. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting Budgets are adopted on a cash basis <br />except for accrual of current vendor invoices and utility billings. Annual appropriated budgets are adopted for the fund. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end. The District <br />adheres to the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements: • Budgets are required by state law for all General and Special Revenue <br />funds. The budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them. All budgets lapse at year-end. • Prior to December 31, the budget is adopted by formal resolution. • <br />Budgets are required to be filed with the State of Colorado within thirty days after the beginning of the fiscal year. • Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund <br />level. • The District Board must approve revisions that alter the total expenditures of any fund. • Budgeted amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements are as originally <br />adopted by the District Board or revised by the District Board. Property, Plant and Equipment The District records property, plant and equipment at historical cost. Donated fixed assets <br />are valued at their estimated fair value on the date donated. All assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Plant and distribution system <br />20-50 years Equipment 3-5 years The costs of normal maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful <br />lives of the related assets. <br />Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2009 12 Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Property Taxes The <br />County Treasurer collects and remits property taxes to the District monthly. Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of January 1. Taxes are levied for the current <br />year prior to December 31 and are payable in full on April 30 of the subsequent year, or in two installments on February 28 and June 15. Property taxes are recorded as receivables and <br />deferred revenue when levied. As taxes are collected, the receivable and deferral are reduced and income is recognized. Assets and Liabilities Investments – investments are recorded <br />at fair value, which approximates cost. Receivables – all receivables are reported at their book value and, where appropriate, are reduced by the estimated portion that is expected to <br />be uncollectible. Capital assets -assets are stated at cost or estimated cost. The capitalization threshold for fixed assets is $5,000. Depreciation over the estimated useful lives of <br />the assets is computed using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives are 20-50 years for plant distribution system, and 3 to 5 years for operating equipment. Deferred revenues <br />– deferred revenues include property taxes, which have been certified but not yet collected. Net Assets Equity is classified as net assets and displayed in three components: a. Invested <br />in capital assets, net of related debt – consists of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any <br />bonds, mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. b. Restricted net assets – consists of net assets <br />with constraints placed on the use either by (1) external groups, such as creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) law through constitutional provisions <br />or enabling legislation. The District utilizes restricted net assets before utilizing unrestricted net assets when an expense is incurred for both purposes. c. Unrestricted net assets <br />– all other net assets that do not meet the definition of “restricted” or “invested in capital assets, net of related debt.” These net assets are available for future operations or distributions. <br /> <br />Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2009 13 Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Assets and Liabilities <br />(continued) Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents are defined as investments (including restricted assets) with maturity of three months or less <br />at date of acquisition. The District considers certificates of deposit with maturities of more than three months at date of purchase as investments. Use of Estimates in the Preparation <br />of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make <br />estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Note 2 Cash and Investments Cash Deposits As <br />of December 31, 2009, the District’s cash deposits had a carrying balance of $290,621 and a corresponding bank balance of $290,877, of which $290,877 was insured by the Federal Deposit <br />Insurance Corporation. The Colorado Public Deposit Protection Act (PDPA) requires that all units of local government deposit cash in eligible public depositories. Eligibility is determined <br />by state regulations. Amounts on deposit in excess of federal insurance levels must be collateralized. The eligible collateral is specified under the PDPA. PDPA allows the institution <br />to create a single collateral pool for all public funds. The pool for all the uninsured public deposits as a group is to be maintained by another institution or held in trust. The market <br />value of the collateral must be at least equal to 102% of the uninsured deposits. The Colorado Divisions of Banking and Financial Services are required by statute to monitor the naming <br />of eligible depositories and reporting of the uninsured deposits and assets maintained in the collateral pools. Custodial Credit Risk – Deposits Custodial credit risk is the risk that <br />in the event of a bank failure, the District’s deposits may not be returned to it. The District does not have a deposit policy for custodial credit risk. As of December 31, 2009, none <br />of the District’s bank deposits were exposed to custodial credit risk. At December 31, 2009, the District’s holdings of U.S. agency obligations were rated AAA by Standard & Poor’s. <br />Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2009 14 Note 2 Cash and Investments (Continued) Investments Colorado statutes specify in <br />which investment instruments the units of local government may invest: • Obligations of the United States and certain United States government agency securities. • Certain international <br />agency securities. • General obligation and revenue bonds of United States local government entities. • Bankers’ acceptances of certain banks. • Commercial paper. • Local government <br />investment pools. • Written repurchase agreements collateralized by certain authorized securities. • Certain money market funds. • Guaranteed investment contracts. At December 31, 2009, <br />the District had the following investments: Investment Type Weighted Average Maturity (Years) Fair Value Percent of total investments Federal Home Loan Bank 3.83 $ 129,508 100% Total <br />Fair Value $ 129,508 100% A summary of cash and investments at December 31, 2009, is as follows: 2009 Cash deposits $ 2 90,621 Investments 1 29,508 Total cash and investments $ 4 20,129 <br />Note 3 Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2009, was comprised of the following: 2009 Charges for services $ 15,943 Taxes receivable 4 22 Total $ 16,365 <br />Thunderbird Water & Sanitation District Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2009 15 Note 4 Capital Assets A summary of changes to capital assets for 2009 is as follows: <br />Balance at 12/31/2008 Additions Deletions Balance at 12/31/2009 Busieness Type Activities: Nondepreciable Water rights $ 86,891 $ 16,180 $ -$ 103,071 Total Nondepreciable 86,891 16,180 <br />-103,071 Depreciable Plant and equipment 1,045,875 44,108 -1,089,983 Total Depreciable 1,045,875 44,108 -1,089,983 TOTAL 1,132,766 60,288 -1,193,054 Less Accumulated Depreciation Plant <br />and equipment ( 261,832) (29,436) -( 291,268) Total Accumulated Depreciation ( 261,832) (29,436) -( 291,268) Net Capital Assets $ 870,934 $ 30,852 $ -$ 901,786 Depreciation expense for <br />the year ended December 31, 2009 was $29,436. Note 5 Long-term Debt The Colorado Water Resources and Power Development Authority issued the District revolving loans in 1999 and 2002 <br />for water system improvements. The loans are being amortized over 20 years with installments of $12,155 and $12,411 due semi-annually, including interest at a 4.00 percent and 4.50 percent, <br />respectively.

The District believes it is in compliance with the requirements of TABOR. The District has created a Water and Wastewater statutory <br />enterprise operation in compliance with Colorado law, which exempts certain business-like operations from Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution. Note 7 Reconciliation of <br />Proprietary (GAAP) Revenues and Expenses to Budgetary Revenues, Expenses, and Expenditures The District prepares its budget annually. The budget comparison in this report is presented <br />on a Non-GAAP budgetary basis.
