Independent Auditor’s Report To the Board of Directors of The Scarborough Hospital We have audited the accompanying financial statements of The Scarborough Hospital, which comprise the statement of financial position as at March 31, 2015, the statements of revenue and expenses, changes in net assets, remeasurement gains and cash flows for the year then ended, 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 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 in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

1. Description of business
Upon approval by the Health Services Restructuring Commission and the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (“Ministry”), The Scarborough Hospital (the “Hospital”) was formed on September 8, 1999 through the amalgamation under subsection 113(3) of the Corporations Act (Ontario) of the Scarborough General Hospital and the Salvation Army Scarborough Grace Hospital.
The Hospital is a multi-location acute care community general hospital. It is classified as a registered charity under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and, as such, is not subject to income tax provided certain disbursement requirements are met.
The financial statements do not include the assets, liabilities and operations of The Scarborough Hospital Foundation (the “Foundation”). Revenues generated by the Foundation may be donated to the Hospital upon approval by its board.
The Hospital signed a 2014-15 Hospital Service Accountability Agreement with the Central East Local Health Integration Network (“LHIN”) which included a balanced total margin target. The excess of expenses over revenue is the responsibility of the Hospital and must be funded from other sources, including capital funds.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Financial statement presentation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards for government not-for-profit organizations, using the deferral method of reporting contributions.
Description of funds
Invested in capital assets fund represents the net book value of the Hospital’s capital assets, less any related debt and unamortized capital grants.
Unrestricted funds represent the excess of revenue over expenses (expenses over revenue) accumulated from the ongoing operations of the Hospital since its inception.
Revenue recognition
Under the Health Insurance Act and Regulations thereto, the Corporation is primarily funded by the Province of Ontario. Operating grants are recorded as revenue in the year to which they relate.
Operating contributions are recognized as revenue when received or receivable if the amounts to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Capital contributions externally restricted for the purchase of capital assets are deferred and amortized into revenue on a straight-line basis at a rate corresponding with the amortization rate of the related capital assets.
Revenue from other agencies, patients, special programs and other sources is recognized when the service is provided.
To the extent which the Ministry or LHIN funding has been received with the stipulated requirement that the Hospital provide specific services and these services have not yet been provided, the funding is deferred until such time as the services are performed and the monies spent. In the event that the services are not performed in accordance with the funding requirements, the funds received in excess of monies spent could be recovered by the Ministry or LHIN.
Investment income is recorded as revenue in the statement of revenue and expenses.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments
All financial instruments reported on the Statement of financial position for the year ended March 31, 2015 are measured as follows:
Cash and short term investments Fair value Short-term indebtedness Amortized cost Accounts receivable Amortized cost Long-term receivable Amortized cost Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost Long-term debt Amortized cost Derivatives – Interest rate swap Fair value
Contributed services
Due to the difficulty in determining their fair value, contributed services are not recognized in the financial statements.
Investment in joint ventures
The investment in joint venture is accounted for using the modified equity method.
Capital assets
Capital assets are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives using the following rates:
Buildings and building improvements 10-50 years Furniture and equipment 5-20 years Computer equipment 3-5 years
Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents expenditures incurred for projects currently underway. Upon completion, the relating construction in progress will be transferred to the appropriate capital asset category and amortization will commence.
Capital contributions
Building and equipment grants received by the Hospital are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis at a rate corresponding to the amortization rate for the related building or equipment purchased.
Employee benefit plans
The Hospital is an employer member of the Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan, which is a multi-employer, defined benefit pension plan. The Hospital has adopted defined contribution plan accounting principles for this Plan because insufficient information is available to apply defined benefit plan accounting principles.
The Hospital accrues its obligations for employee benefit plans. The cost of non-pension post-retirement and post-employment benefits earned by employees is actuarially determined using the projected benefit method prorated on service and management’s best estimate of retirement ages of employees and expected heath care costs. Actuarial gains or losses are amortized over the average remaining service period of the active employees. The average remaining service period for active employees is 13 years. Future cost escalation affects the amount of employee future benefits. The accrued benefit obligation related to employee benefits is discounted using current interest rates based on the Hospital’s cost of borrowing.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
Employee benefit plans (continued)
Adjustments arising from plan amendments are recognized in the year that the plan amendments occur. Actuarial gains or losses are amortized over the average remaining service period of the active employees.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the statement of financial position date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the year then ended. Actual results may differ from such estimates.
In particular, the amount of revenue recognized from the Ministry and the LHIN requires some estimation. The Hospital has entered into accountability agreements that set out the rights and obligations of the parties in respect of funding provided to the Hospital by the Ministry and the LHIN. The accountability agreements set out certain performance standards and obligations that establish acceptable results for the Hospital’s performance in a number of areas.
If the Hospital does not meet its performance standards or obligations, the Ministry and the LHIN have the right to adjust funding received. Neither the Ministry nor the LHIN are required to communicate certain funding adjustments until after submission of year end data. Since this data is not submitted until after the completion of the financial statements, the amount of the Ministry/LHIN funding received during a year may be increased or decreased subsequent to year end. The amount of revenue recognized in these financial statements represents management’s best estimates of amounts that have been earned during the year.
Other accounts that include significant estimates are accounts receivable, useful lives of capital assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, legal defense provision, employee future benefits and derivatives.

5. Investment in joint ventures
In 1997 the Hospital, (through its predecessor organizations) together with North York General Hospital formed an incorporated joint venture for the purpose of providing non-emergency laboratory services to the hospitals. In fiscal 2008, Toronto East General Hospital joined the joint venture. The joint venture is equally owned through common shares by the three hospitals as at the reporting date. The Hospital owns one third of the common shares as at the reporting date and contributed 44% of the joint venture revenues. There are no significant differences between the accounting policies of the Hospital and those of the joint venture. The investment represents the investment in common shares of the joint venture using the modified equity method and non-voting preferred shares in the amount of $166.
In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the joint venture, the holders of the Class A preferred shares are entitled to receive from the assets of the joint venture, a sum equivalent to all Class A preferred shares held, before any amount to be paid to other parties.
During 2011, the Hospital entered into a joint venture agreement with Professional Respiratory Home Care Service Corp. to form Scarborough ProResp Inc. The investment represents $260 Class A preferred shares and 50% of the equity interest in the form of 50 Class A common shares. The investment represents the investment in commons shares of the joint venture using the modified equity method and non-voting preferred shares in the amount of $260. The Hospital has a Management Services Agreement with Scarborough ProResp Inc. to provide supervisory and management services in return for a management fee. During the year management fees of $139 (2014 - $272) were included in the statement of revenue and expenses as other income.

13. Contingent liabilities and guarantees
A. Due to the nature of its operations, the Hospital is periodically subject to lawsuits in which the Hospital is a defendant, as well as grievances filed by its various unions. Management accrues liabilities for claims against the Hospital when a liability is likely to be incurred and the amount of the claim can be reasonably estimated.
B. On July 1, 1987, a group of health care organizations (“subscribers”) formed HIROC. HIROC is registered as a Reciprocal pursuant to provincial Insurance Acts, which permit persons to exchange with other persons reciprocal contracts of indemnity insurance. HIROC facilitates the provision of liability insurance coverage to health care organizations in the provinces of Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland. Subscribers pay annual premiums, which are actuarially determined, and are subject to assessment for losses in excess of such premiums, if any, experienced by the group of subscribers for the years in which they were a subscriber. No such assessments have been made to March 31, 2015.
Effective January 1, 2015, the Hospital entered into an agreement with HIROC to provide indemnity insurance, however, the cost of investigating and defending any ligation claims would be borne by the Hospital. The Hospital has appointed HIROC Management Limited (HML) to act as agent for the Hospital for such claims defence costs in accordance with an Agency Agreement. To fund the expected payments, the Hospital will transfer funds to an operating account managed by HIROC Management Ltd. as the Hospital’s appointed agent. Costs associated with claims arising prior to January 1, 2015 will be borne by HIROC. Costs of defending claims that arise subsequent to January 1, 2015 are based on claims defence costs incurred by HIROC in the past. The provision at March 31, 2015 is $431 and the related claims defence expense of $431 is included in the financial statements as Supplies and other expenses in the Statement of revenue and expenses.
C. In the normal course of business, the Hospital enters into agreements that meet the definition of a guarantee. The Hospital’s primary guarantees are as follows:
a) The Hospital has provided indemnities under lease agreements for the use of various operating facilities. Under the terms of these agreements the Hospital agrees to indemnify the counterparties for various items including, but not limited to, all liabilities, losses, suits, and damages arising during, on or after the term of the agreement. The maximum amount of any potential future payment cannot be reasonably estimated.
b) Indemnity has been provided to all directors and or officers of the Hospital for various items including, but not limited to, all costs to settle suits or actions due to association with the Hospital, subject to certain restrictions. The Hospital has purchased errors and omissions insurance to mitigate the cost of any potential future suits or actions. The term of the indemnification is not explicitly defined, but is limited to the period over which the indemnified party served as a director or officer of the Hospital. The maximum amount of any potential future payment cannot be reasonably estimated.
c) In the normal course of business, the Hospital has entered into agreements that include indemnities in favour of third parties. These indemnification agreements may require the Hospital to compensate counterparties for losses incurred by the counterparties as a result of breaches in representation and regulations or as a result of litigation claims or statutory sanctions that may be suffered by the counterparty as a consequence of the transaction. The terms of these indemnities are not explicitly defined and the maximum amount of any potential reimbursement cannot be reasonably estimated.
Historically, the Hospital has not made any significant payments under such or similar indemnification agreements and, therefore, no amount has been accrued in the statement of financial position with respect to these agreements.

17. Financial instruments and risk management
Risk management
The Hospital, through its financial assets, including financial instruments and liabilities has exposure to credit risk and interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the value of debt held by the Hospital. The Hospital has mitigated this risk by entering into interest rate swaps (Note 18A-C).
Credit risk
The Hospital’s principal financial assets are short term investments and accounts receivable which are subject to credit risk. The carrying amounts of financial assets on the statement of financial position represent the Hospital’s maximum credit exposure at the statement of financial position date.
The Hospital’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its patient receivables. The amounts disclosed in the statement of financial position are net of allowance for doubtful accounts, estimated by the management of the Hospital based on previous experience and its assessment of the current economic environment. The credit risk on short-term investments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by national credit-rating agencies.

Fair value
Fair value represents the amount that would be exchanged in an arm’s length transaction between willing parties who are under no compulsion to act and is best evidenced by a quoted market price, if one exists. The Hospital’s fair values are management’s estimates and are generally determined using market conditions at a specific point in time and may not reflect future fair values. The determinations are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and the exercise of significant judgment.
The fair value of short term indebtedness, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturity.
The fair value of short-term investments is based on cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value due to their short term maturity.
The fair value of long term debt approximates its carrying value due to interest rate swaps which have been entered on each debt instrument that account for the change in market values relative to the fixed rates.
Fair value of derivative financial instruments
The Hospital has entered into three derivative financial instrument transactions. Descriptions of the current derivative financial instruments are as follow:
A. A non-revolving term loan facility for the construction of the West Wing in the amount of $14,000 was obtained October 2006. The notional value of this loan is $6,703 at March 31, 2015 (2014 - $8,142). The Hospital has entered into an interest rate swap arrangement to modify the rate of the loan from a variable banker’s acceptance rate ranging from 0 .976% to 1.30% (2014 - 1.22% to 1.23%) to a fixed rate of 7.96%. The start date of the interest rate swap was January 2, 2009 with a maturity date of January 2, 2019. The fair value of the interest rate swap at March 31, 2015 is $867 (2014 - $1,178).
B. A non-revolving term loan facility for the construction of the Head Start component of the West Wing in the amount of $5,000 was obtained May 2005. The notional value of this loan is $114 at March 31, 2015 (2014 - $770). The Hospital has entered into an interest rate swap arrangement to modify the rate of the loan from a variable banker’s acceptance rate ranging from 0.976% to 1.30% (2014 - 1.22% to 1.23%) to a fixed rate of 6.707%. The start date of the interest rate swap was May 2, 2005 with a maturity date of May 1, 2015. The fair value of the interest rate swap at March 31, 2015 is $1 (2014 - $23).
C. A non-revolving demand loan facility for the financing of the Medical Mall office building in the amount of $7,000 was obtained April 1, 2003. The notional value of this loan is $4,868 at March 31, 2015 (2014 - $5,101). The Hospital has entered into an interest rate swap arrangement to modify the rate of the loan from a variable banker’s acceptance rate ranging from 0.976% to 1.30% (2014 - 1.22% to 1.23%) to a fixed rate of 6.66%. The start date of the interest rate swap is April 1, 2003 with a maturity date of April 3, 2028. The fair value of the interest rate swap is $1,456 at March 31, 2015 (2014 - $1,207). The Hospital also had the option to reduce the notional amount of the loan by $150 commencing April 1, 2004 and annually thereafter. The Hospital sold the option on November 10, 2011 and received proceeds of $530 which were recorded in the statement of re-measurement gains and losses. CIBC or the Hospital may elect to terminate the facility on April 1, 2018 or April 1, 2023.

Fair value hierarchy
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market inputs whenever such inputs exist. A financial instrument is classified to the lowest level of the hierarchy for which a significant input has been considered in measuring fair value.
The following table presents the financial instruments recorded at fair value in the Statement of financial position, classified using the fair value hierarchy described above:
Financial liabilities at fair value as at March 31, 2015.
2015 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total $ $ $ $
Derivatives – Interest rate swap - 2,324 - 2,324
2014
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total $ $ $ $
Derivatives – Interest rate swap - 2,408 - 2,408
There have been no movements between levels for the year ended March 31, 2015.
