INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors of New Horizons Charter School Society

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of New Horizons Charter School Society, which comprise the statement of financial position as at August 31, 2015, and the statements of operations, cash flow, changes in net debt, and change in remeasurement gains and losses, for the year ended August 31, 2015, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards, 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 is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of New Horizons Charter School Society as at August 31, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended August 31, 2015, in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards.

NEW HORIZONS CHARTER SCHOOL SOCIETY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2015

1. Authority and Purpose The Society delivers education programs under the authority of the School Act, Revised Statutes of Alberta 2000, Chapter S-3.

The Society receives instruction and support allocations under Education Grants Regulation (AR 12012008) The regulation allows for the setting of conditions and use of grant monies. The

Society is limited on certain funding allocations and administration expenses.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the CICA Canadian public sector accounting standards (PSAS). The financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting policies summarized below:

A. Basis of Consolidation The Fundraising Association of New Horizons School is not a controlled entity and has not been consolidated with the Society's financial statements.

B. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. These short-term investments have a maturity of three months or less at acquisition and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investing.

C. Portfolio Investments The Society has investments in GIC's that have a maturity of greater than 3 months. GIC's are reported at cost or amortized cost.

Detailed information regarding portfolio investments is disclosed in Note 4.

D. Tangible Capital Assets Tangible capital assets acquired or constructed are recorded at cost which includes amounts that are directly related to the acquisition, design, construction, development, improvement or betterment of the asset. Cost also includes overhead directly attributable to construction as well as interest costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset.

Donated tangible capital assets are recorded at their fair market value at the date of donation, except in circumstances where fair value cannot be reasonably determined. when they are then recognized at nominal value. Transfers of tangible capital assets from related parties are recorded at original cost less accumulated amortization.

NEW HORIZONS CHARTER SCHOOL SOCIETY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2015

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

D. Tangible Capital Assets (continued) Sites and buildings are written down to residual value when conditions indicate they no longer contribute to the ability of the Society to provide services or when the value of future economic benefits associated with the sites and buildings are less than their net book value. For Supported assets, the write-downs are accounted for as reductions to Expended Deferred Capital Revenue.

Tangible capital assets with costs in excess of $5,000 are capitalized.

Leases that, from the point of view of the lessee, transfer substantially all the benefits and risks incident to ownership of the property to the Board are considered capital leases. These are accounted for as an asset and an obligation. Capital lease obligations are recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments excluding executor costs. The discount rate used to determine the present value of the lease payments is the lower of the Society's rate for incremental borrowing or the interest rate implicit in the lease.

Buildings includes building, land and site improvements

Tangible capital assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, at the following rates:

Buildings Equipment and Furnishings

4% 20%

Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.

E. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue includes contributions received for operations which have stipulations that meet the definition of a liability per Public Sector Accounting Standard (PSAS) PS 3200. These

contributions are recognized by the Society once it has met all eligibility criteria to receive the contributions. When stipulations are met, deferred revenue is recognized as revenue in the fiscal year in a manner consistent with the circumstances and evidence used to support the initial recognition of the contributions received as a liability.

Deferred revenue also include contributions for expended capital expenditures. Expended Deferred Capital Revenue represent externally restricted supported capital funds that have been expended but have yet to be amortized over the useful life of the related capital asset. Amortization over the useful life of the related capital asset is due to certain stipulations related to the contributions that require that the school jurisdiction to use the asset in a prescribed manner over the life of the associated asset.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

F. Employee Future Benefits The Society provides certain post-employment benefits including vested and non-vested benefits for certain employees pursuant to certain contracts and union agreements.

The Society accrues its obligations and related costs including both vested and non-vested benefits under employee future benefit plans. Benefits include defined-benefit retirement plans, plans. The future benefits cost is actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method pro-rata on service and using management's best estimate of expected salary escalation, benefit usage, termination and retirement rates and mortality. The discount rate used to measure obligations is based on the cost of borrowing.

G. Operating and Capital Reserves Certain amounts are internally or externally restricted for future operating or capital purposes. Transfers to and from reserves are recorded when approved by the Board of Directors. Capital reserves are restricted to capital purposes and may only be used for operating purposes with approval by the Minister of Education. Reserves are disclosed in the Schedule of Changes in Accumulated Surplus.

H. Revenue Recognition Revenues are recorded on an accrual basis. Instruction and support allocations are recognized in the year to which they relate. Fees for services related to courses and programs are recognized as revenue when such courses and programs are delivered.

Volunteers contribute a considerable number of hours per year to schools to ensure that certain programs are delivered, such as kindergarten, lunch services and the raising of school generated funds. Contributed services are not recognized in the financial statements.

Eligibility criteria are criteria that the Society has to meet in order to receive certain contributions. Stipulations describe what the Society must perform in order to keep the contributions. Contributions without eligibility criteria or stipulations are recognized as revenue when the contributions are authorized by the transferring government or entity. Contributions with eligibility criteria but without stipulations are recognized as revenue when the contributions are authorized by the transferring government or entity and all eligibility criteria have been met.

Contributions with stipulations are recognized as revenue in the period the stipulations are met, except when and to the extent that the contributions give rise to an obligation that meets the definition of a liability in accordance with Section PS 3200.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

I. Expenses (continued) Actual salaries of personnel assigned to two or more programs are allocated based on the time spent in each program. Employee benefits and allowances are allocated to the same programs, and in the same proportions, as the individual's salary. Supplies and services are allocated based on actual program identification.

J. Pensions Pension costs included in these statements comprise the cost of employer contributions for current service of employees during the year.

The current and past service costs of the Alberta Teachers Retirement Fund are met by contributions by active members and the Government of Alberta. Under the terms of the Teachers Pension Plan Act, the Society does not make pension contributions for certificated staff. The Government portion of the current service contribution to the Alberta Teachers Retirement Fund on behalf of the jurisdiction is included in both revenues and expenses. For the School year ended August 31, 2014, the amount contributed by the Government was $133,544 (2013 - $134,276).

NEW HORIZONS CHARTER SCHOOL SOCIETY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

L. Financial Instruments A contract establishing a financial instrument creates, at its inception, rights and obligations to receive or deliver economic benefits. The financial assets and financial liabilities portray these rights and obligations in the financial statements. The Society recognizes a financial instrument when it becomes a party to a financial instrument contract.

All financial assets and liabilities are recorded at cost or amortized cost and the associated transaction costs are added to the carrying value of items in the cost or amortized cost upon initial recognition. The gain or loss arising from derecognition of a financial instrument is recognized in the Statement of Operations. Impairment losses such as write-downs or write-offs are reported in the Statement of Operations.

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, portfolio investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Society is not exposed to significant credit and liquidity risks, or market risk, which includes currency, interest rate and other price risks.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Society will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Society enters into transactions to purchase goods and services on credit, and leases office equipment from various creditors for which repayment is required at various maturity dates. Liquidity risk is measured by reviewing the Society's future net cash flows for the possibility of a negative net cash flow. The Society manages the liquidity risk resulting from accounts payable through the preparation and monitoring of budgets, and maintaining Guaranteed Investment Certificates

M. Measurement Uncertainty The precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent on future events. As a result the preparation of financial statements for a period involves the use of estimates and approximations, which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the potential impairment of assets, rates for amortization and estimated employee future benefits.
