INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

The Board of Directors Louisiana Children's Museum

We have audited the accompanying statements of fmancial position of the Louisiana Children's Museum (the Museum) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these fmancial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of intemal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of fmancial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fmancial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to fmancial audits contained in Govermnent Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the fmancial 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 auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the fmancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers intemal 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 intemal 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 fmancial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the fmancial statements referred to above present fairh', in all material respects, the financial position of Louisiana Children's Museum as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. The accompanying supplemental information as listed in the table of contents is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the fmancial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the fmancial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the fmancial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the fmancial statements or to the fmancial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the fmancial statements as a whole.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditins Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated June 21, 2013 on our consideration of the Museum's intemal control over fmancial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of intemal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the intemal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audits.

LOUISL4JVA CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

NOTES TO FINANCLAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011

Summari' of Significant Accounting Policies

History and Organization

The Louisiana Children's Museum (the Museum), which opened in October 1986, is an invaluable cultural, educational and recreational resource servhag the City of New Orleans with exhibits and programs focusing on health, fitness, art, local history, cultural heritage, local industry, geography, literacy, science, math, safety, and daily livmg skills.

The Museum is organized as a private, nonprofit corporation, chartered in the State of Louisiana and granted 501(c)(3) status by the Intemal Revenue Ser\ace. It is govemed by a 33-member Board of Directors. The Museum is heavily dependent on community support for contributions and memberships.

The Early Teaming Village (ELV) is a planned educational and cultural complex situated on an 8 acre site in New Orleans City Park to support and nurture the optimal development of children and families. The planned relocation of the Louisiana Children's Museum is the anchor of the Early Learning Village. Surrounding the Louisiana Children's Museum in the ELV are local organizations that help our families provide healthy and caring relationships, model lifestyles that promote physical, social, emotional and cognitive health, and engage in a successful start to lifelong learning. Daily programming on-site will be accompanied by trainiug throughout the State of Louisiana on child development and family well- being.

Financial Statement Presentation

The Museum's net assets, support and revenues, and expenses are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, the net assets of the Museum and changes therein are classified and reported as follows:

• Unrestricted net assets - Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed stipulations. • Temporarily restricted net assets - Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that may

or will be met either by actions of the Museum and/or the passage of time. • Permanently restricted net assets - Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that

neither expire by the passage of time nor can be fulfilled and removed by actions of the Museum pursuant to those stipulations.

Basis of Presentation

The Museum prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting.

LOUISIANA CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

NOTES TO FINANCLAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31,2012 ANT) 2011

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Museum considers all highly liquid investments in mone}' market funds to be cash equivalents.

Promises to Give

Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a promise to give to the Museum that is, in substance, unconditional. Contributions that are restricted by the donor are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets if the restrictions expire in the fiscal year in which the contributions are recognized. All other donor-restricted contributions are reported as increases in temporarily restricted net assets. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets.

Promises to give and grants receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a provision for bad debt expense and an adjustment to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. Changes in the valuation allowance have not been material to the fmancial statements.

Inventory

The Museum's gift shop inventory is valued at cost on the first-in, first-out method.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment of the Museum are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets on the straight-line method.

Income Taxes

The Museum is exempt fi-om federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Intemal Revenue Code and from state income taxes under Section 121(5) of Title 47 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950.

LOUISLANA CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31,2012 AND 2011

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax retum should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Museum may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Museum and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the fmancial statements ffom such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no umecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal year 2012 and 2011.

The Museum's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009 remain open and subject to examination by taxing authorities.

Contributions and Memberships

Contributions and memberships represent cash donations to the Museum ffom private organizations and individuals and are recognized as support when received or pledged.

Restricted Net Assets

The Museum reports gifts of cash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions.

Gifts of long-lived operating assets such as land, buildings or equipment are reported as unrestricted support, unless explicit donor stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used. Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support. Absent explicit donor stipulations about how long those long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service.

1. Summan^ of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of fmancial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that could affect reported amounts of assets at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results and the results of future periods could differ from those estimates.

Financial instmments with off-balance sheet risk

The Museum periodically has funds in excess of federally insured limits at its lender bank. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, $527,240 and $758,222, respectively, of the Museum's cash was over the FDIC limits.

ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," establishes a fair value hierarchy with three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. These levels include: Level 1, defined as inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2, defmed as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly obser\'able; and Level 3, defined as unobser\'able inputs for use when little or no market data exist, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Museum held certain fmancial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, primarily our investments held by Greater New Orleans Foundation. The following table presents financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 by Fair Value Measurement valuation hierarchy:

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, promises to give, inventory, and accounts payable approximates book value at December 31, 2012 and 2011 due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

NOTES TO FEV.4NCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011

7. Promise to Give

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Museum received a verbal commitment from a Fortune 500 company of $1,000,000 to assist in funding the Early Teaming Village project. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, no amounts are recorded in promises to give receivables relating to this verbal commitment. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Museum has received $0 and $100,000, respectively, of the $1,000,000, and included the amounts in contribution revenue when received. The Museum has received $200,000 in prior years relating to the verbal commitment and at December 31, 2012 the verbal commitment has a balance of $800,000 remaining.

8. Subsequent Event

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the financial statements were available to be issued, June 21, 2013, and noted no items requiring disclosure.

In 2013, the State of Louisiana Legislature passed HB 2 and included funding of $3.2 million (as Priority 1) and of $14.1 milhon (as Priority 5) for the Louisiana Children's Museum and the ELV project. Actual appropriation of these amounts is uncertain and is pending the issuance of bonds by the State of Louisiana and the approval of the State Bond Commission.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR^S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCLAL REPORTmC AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT A UDITING STANDARDS

To the Board of Directors Louisiana Children's Museum

We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to fmancial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the fmancial statements of Louisiana Children's Museum (the Museum), vv hich comprise the statements of fmancial position as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of activities and changes in net assets and statements of cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the fmancial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated June 21, 2013.

Intemal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Museum's internal control over fmancial reporting (intemal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the fmancial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Museum's intemal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Museum's intemal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in intemal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in intemal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with govemance.

Our consideration of intemal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in.the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in intemal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in intemal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Museum's fmancial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of fmancial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of intemal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the organization's intemal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the organization's intemal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. However, under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by the Legislative Auditor as a public document.
