FROM: Michael A. Hursh, General Manager
SUBJECT: Financial Statements for the First Quarter Ended September 30, 2021
BRIEFING ITEM
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Title
Consider receiving the Financial Statements for the AC Transit Financing Corporation for the First Quarter Ended September 30, 2021.
Body
BUDGETARY/FISCAL IMPACT:
Overall, accrued interest on the Certificates of Participation (COPs) through the First Quarter was $85,000 which was the same as the prior fiscal year and consistent with the amortization schedules. The accrued interest does not equal the interest payment due to the timing of the semi-annual cash payment of the interest expense.
BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:
The Financing Corporation was created to provide financing to the Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District. The Board receives quarterly and annual reports on the Financing Corporation financial results. The financial statements reflect the current Certificate of Participation financing as follows:
* In December 2019, the District issued Refunding Certificates of Participation Series 2019 (2019 COPS). The proceeds from the issuance of the $11.66 million were used to refund and retire the 2009A COPS. In connection with this transaction, the District incurred a non-cash deferred loss on refunding that is reported as a deferred outflow of resources in the amount of $583,000 which will be recognized as a component of interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. Principal payments on these 2019 Refunding COPS were deferred until August 2022, however, fiscal year to date interest payments and accruals were $170,212.
ADVANTAGES/DISADVANTAGES:
There are no notable advantages or disadvantages to receiving this report.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS:
There are no significant alternatives to the receiving the report and information presented.
