other auditor. We conducted our audits in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we 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. 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. Opinions In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditor, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the business-type activities and the discretely-presented component unit of CCSNH as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the years then ended, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information U.S. generally accepted accounting principles require that Management's Discussion and Analysis on pages 3 through 25 and the required supplementary information on pages 60 through 65 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), 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 U.S. generally accepted auditing standards, 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. Change in Accounting Principle As discussed in Note 2 to the basic financial statements, in 2018 CCSNH adopted new accounting guidance, GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. 176 | P a g e
Bangor, Maine December 7, 2018 INTRODUCTION The following Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) includes the strategic vision and economic outlook as well as an analysis of the financial position and operations for the Community College System of New Hampshire (CCSNH) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016. This discussion is provided by the management of CCSNH and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes. The New Hampshire State Legislature, through the passage of Chapter 361, Laws of 2007, established CCSNH as a body politic and corporate for the purpose of providing a well-coordinated system of public community college education. Governance of CCSNH was placed with a single Board of Trustees which serves as its policy-making and operating authority. CCSNH is a state-wide system of seven independently accredited institutions including White Mountains Community College (WMCC), Lakes Region Community College (LRCC), River Valley Community College (<strong>RVCC</strong>), NHTI – Concord’s Community College, Manchester Community College (MCC), Nashua Community College (NCC), and Great Bay Community College (GBCC), as well as five academic centers in Keene, Littleton, Rochester, North Conway, and Lebanon, New Hampshire. The financial statements include the activity of the Community Colleges of New Hampshire Foundation (the Foundation), which is a separate legal entity established as a 501(c)(3) corporation and is a discretely-presented non-major component unit of CCSNH. The Foundation’s mission is to provide greater access to educational opportunities through financial assistance for student scholarships, program development, and enhancements to college facilities. The MD&A includes information only for CCSNH, not its component unit. Complete financial statements of the Foundation can be obtained from CCSNH’s system office. STRATEGIC VISION AND ECONOMIC OUTLOOK CCSNH’s mission is to provide residents with affordable, accessible education, and training that aligns with the needs of New Hampshire’s businesses and communities, delivered through an innovative, efficient, and collaborative system of colleges. CCSNH is dedicated to the educational, professional, and personal success of its students; a skilled workforce for our state’s business; and a strong New Hampshire economy. In our mission statement, CCSNH explicitly dedicates itself to supporting educational access and success, contributing to the State’s communities, and to its economic and social vitality 177 | P a g e
