Financial summary for The Peregrine Fund — FY2010

The Peregrine Fund’s financial status continued to be impacted by the economy, as unrestricted revenues, gains, and other support decreased by 4.6% from fiscal year 2009 levels. The largest impact to operating revenue was the result of a timing issue on a government grant, resulting in approximately $480,000 of grant revenue being recorded in fiscal year 2011, instead of fiscal year 2010 as originally budgeted.

Decreases in salaries and benefits implemented during fiscal year 2009 were continued for fiscal year 2010 in order to keep expenses within estimated revenue projections while at the same time continuing critical programmatic work.

The decrease in net assets for the year was $370,494, which includes investment income of $893,174 and a decrease in pledges receivable of $761,596.

The financial results depicted are derived from The Peregrine Fund’s audited September 30, 2010 financial statements, which contain an unqualified opinion. The complete audited financial statements can be obtained by contacting The Peregrine Fund, Administrator, 5668 West Flying Hawk Lane, Boise, Idaho 83709.
