INTERNET CORPORATION
FOR ASSIGNED NAMES AND NUMBERS
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2001
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) was established
in September 1998 under the laws of the state of California. ICANN coordinates
a select set of the Internet's technical management functions such as
the assignment of protocol parameters, the management of the domain name
system, the allocation of Internet protocol (IP) address space, and the
management of the root server system. Categories of Internet domains include
Generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) which include the.com,.net,
.org, and.edudomains and Country Code Top Level Domains
(ccTLDs) examples of which are.us,.uk, and.fr. ICANN
generates income from fees received from domain name registrars and related
accreditation activities. Its primary sources of revenue are as follows:
Domain name registry and registrar fees- Amounts contributed
by organizations responsible for the registration and administration
of Internet Domain Names.
Address registry fees- Amounts contributed by organizations
responsible for the assignment and administration of Internet addresses.
Accreditation fees- Amounts paid in connection with initial
and renewal accreditation of organizations engaged in the registration
and administration of domain names in the .com, .net, .biz, .info, .museum,
.name and .org Internet domains.
Application fees- Amounts paid in connection with processing
of applications to become accredited domain name registrars.
ICANN also receives contributions and grants from other organizations.
ICANN has three supporting organizations which serve as advisory bodies
to the ICANN board of directors with respect to internet policy issues
and structure within three specialized areas, including the system of
IP addresses, the domain name system and parameters for internet protocols.
The supporting organizations are the primary source of substantive policy
recommendations for matters lying within their respective specialized
areas. The three supporting organizations are the Address Supporting Organization
(ASO), Domain Name Supporting Organization (DNSO) and the Protocol Supporting
Organization (PSO). The accounts of DNSO are included in the accompanying
financial statements as ICANN, on behalf of DNSO, receives and processes
the contributions that DNSO receives from its constituencies.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation- The financial statements of ICANN have
been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
ICANN recognizes contributions, including unconditional promises to give,
as revenue in the period received. Contributions and net assets are classified
based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. As such,
the net assets of ICANN and the changes therein are classified and reported
as follows:
Unrestricted net assets- Net assets that are not subject to
donor-imposed stipulations and that may be expendable for any purpose
in performing the objectives of ICANN.
Temporarily restricted assets- Net assets subject to donor-imposed
stipulations that may or will be met either by actions of ICANN and/or
the passage of time. As the restrictions are satisfied, temporarily
restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and
reported in the accompanying financial statements as net assets released
from restrictions.
Permanently restricted net assets- Net assets subject to donor-imposed
stipulations that resources be maintained in perpetuity. Investment
income generated from these funds is available for general support of
ICANN's programs and operations unless otherwise stipulated by the donor.
As of December 31, 2001, ICANN has no permanently restricted net assets.
Functional allocation of expenses- Expenses that can be identified
with a specific program or supporting service are charged directly to
the related program or supporting service. Expenses that are associated
with more than one program or supporting service are allocated based on
methods determined by management. As of and for the six months ended December
31, 2001, ICANN's expenses are classified as follows:
Program services
|
$2,223,444 |
Supporting services - management and general
|
1,036,568 |
TOTAL
|
$3,260,012 |
Cash and cash equivalents- Cash and cash equivalents include deposits
in bank, money market accounts, and marketable commercial paper.
Concentration of credit risk- All of ICANN's cash and cash equivalents
are maintained at one commercial bank. At December 31, 2001, ICANN had
cash in the bank in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)
insurance limits of approximately $768,000.
The accompanying financial statements include certain ccTLD and IP Address
registry accounts receivable balances totaling $1,029,000 as of December
31, 2001. The inclusion of these receivables is based primarily on verbal
understandings between ICANN and the participating registries. Such receivables
and revenues are not supported by written agreements nor has any valuation
allowance for collectibility been established relating to these accounts.
It is the policy of management to reserve against all invoices that remain
unpaid for more than 180 days.
Property and equipment- Property and equipment are stated at cost
or, for contributed items, at fair market value at date of contribution.
The equipment, furniture and fixtures are being depreciated using the
accelerated method over estimated useful lives of five to seven years
or the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter.
Deferred revenue/Accreditation fees- Accreditation fees attributable
to future activities are included in cash and cash equivalents or accounts
receivable and reflected as deferred revenue until earned.
Promises to give- Unconditional promises to give that are expected
to be collected within one year are recorded at estimated net realizable
value. Unconditional promises to give that are expected to be collected
in future years are recorded at the present value of the estimated future
cash flows. Conditional promises to give are not included as support until
the conditions are substantially met.
Contributed services- Contributed services are recognized only
if the services (a) create or enhance long-lived assets, or (b) require
specialized skills, are provided by individuals possessing those skills
and would typically need to be purchased if not provided by donation.
For the six months ended December 31, 2001, contributed legal services
totaling $93,495 are included in the statement of activities as contributed
services and professional services expense.
Income taxes- ICANN is exempt from federal and state income taxes
under the provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code
and Section 23701(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. Accordingly,
no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial
statements.
Use of estimates- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE C - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable is comprised of the following constituencies for
various registry and accreditation fees at December 31, 2001:

|
$2,163,000 |
Written agreements have not yet been reached with the certain name and
address registry operators for amounts billed totaling $874,000.
As described in Note B it is the policy of the Company to establish a
reserve for all invoices that remain unpaid for more than 180 days. Management
has determined that it is appropriate to make an exception for this policy
for accounts totaling $445,500 for which written pledges have been received.

such matters will not have a material effect on the financial position
of ICANN.
