IN FY 2022, THE SESAME STREET IN COMMUNITIES (SSIC) PROGRAM TACKLED ADDITIONAL TOUGH TOPICS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF MARGINALIZED CHILDREN AND FAMILIES. WELCOME SESAMETHIS FISCAL YEAR, SESAME WORKSHOP RESPONDED TO THE INFLUX OF BOTH AFGHAN AND UKRAINIAN FAMILIES SEEKING RESETTLMENT IN THE UNITED STATES DUE TO CRISIS AND/OR CONFLICT THROUGH ITS NEW WELCOME SESAME INITATIVE. IN NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER 2021, SESAME WORKSHOP COLLABORATED WITH US BASES WHERE AFGHAN FAMILIES HAD ARRIVED TO DISTRIBUTE USB DRIVES WITH VIDEOS IN DARI TO SHOW IN THEIR TEMPORARY SCHOOLS. WE ALSO PROVIDED A BIT OF JOY AND COMFORT TO CHILDREN AT FORT BLISS IN DECEMBER '21 WHEN COSTUMED CHARACTER GROVER GREETED THEM AT SCHOOLTIME. ON FEBRUARY 2ND SSIC LAUNCHED A NEW BILINGUAL (ENGLISH/SPANISH) TOPIC PAGE, DISPLACEMENT AND RESETTLEMENT, TO SUPPORT FAMILIES WHO ARE COPING WITH THE EFFECTS OF CRISIS, DISPLACEMENT, AND/OR RESETTLING IN THE U.S. OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS, ADDITIONAL RESOURCES WERE CREATED, VERSIONED INTO VARIOUS LANGUAGES, AND LAUNCHED IN DARI, PASHTO, UKRAINIAN, AND RUSSIAN. THESE RESOURCES ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE COMFORT AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, IMPROVE FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS TO HELP EASE TRANSITIONS, AND BUILD RESILIENCE IN FAMILIES AS THEY SETTLE INTO THEIR NEW OR "FOR-NOW" COMMUNITIES. EACH OF THE SIX NEW BUNDLES FEATURES VIDEOS, AN ARTICLE FOR CAREGIVERS, AND AN INTERACTIVE GAME FOR FAMILIES (RESOURCES VARY DEPENDING ON THE LANGUAGE). THE RESOURCE LAUNCH WAS AMPLIFIED THROUGH GLOBAL PARTNER NETWORKS AND EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS. FROM LAUNCH THROUGH JUNE 30TH THE TOPIC PAGE RECEIVED 6,157 PAGEVIEWS AND 2,302 TOTAL CLICKS ON THE ACTIVITIES. COMING TOGETHERCREATING RESOURCES THAT FOSTER A STRONG SENSE OF IDENTITY AND BELONGING REMAINED A PRIORITY FOR SSIC IN FY 2022. ON APRIL 20TH, SSIC LAUNCHED NEW COMING TOGETHER RESOURCES TO HELP KIDS AND FAMILIES NOT ONLY TO BUILD SELF-CONFIDENCE, BUT SUPPORT OTHERS AS AN UPSTANDER. THE NEW COMMUNITY DIVERSITY SUBTOPIC PAGE RESOURCES INCLUDE 3 VIDEOS, 5 PRINTABLES, AN ARTICLE, AND AN INTERACTIVE GAME. THESE BILINGUAL (ENGLISH AND SPANISH) RESOURCES ARE DESIGNED TO HELP CHILDREN CELEBRATE WHO THEY ARE ON THE INSIDE AS WELL AS THE OUTSIDE, EXPRESS THEIR UNIQUENESS, EXPLORE THEIR DIFFERENCES, AND APPRECIATE THE DIVERSITY OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. THE RESOURCE LAUNCH WAS AMPLIFIED BY A PRESS RELEASE AND A STORY IN USA TODAY. THE RESOURCES EARNED NEARLY 3,000 PAGEVIEWS ON THE SUBTOPIC PAGE AND 1.8 MILLION IMPRESSIONS VIA PAID MEDIA.ADDITIONALLY, WE CONTINUED OUR COMMITMENT TO PROVIDING RESOURCES TO FAMILIES, CAREGIVERS, TEACHERS, AND PROVIDERS AROUND THE COUNTRY TO PROVIDE A GREATER UNDERSTANDING ABOUT AUTISM AND TOOLS DEDICATED TO SHOWING THAT ALL CHILDREN AUTISTIC AND NEUROTYPICAL ALIKE ARE AMAZING IN THEIR OWN WAYS. ON OCTOBER 4, 2021, WE LAUNCHED NEW RESOURCES DESIGNED TO HELP FAMILIES CREATE NEW ROUTINES, BUILD FLEXIBILITY, AND COPE WITH THE CHALLENGES OF CHANGE DURING TURBULENT TIMES. THESE RESOURCES INCLUDED BACKYARD CAMPING ANIMATION CREATED WITH EXCEPTIONAL MINDS STUDIO, A SCHOOL AND STUDIO FOR YOUNG ADULTS ON THE AUTISM SPECTRUM, FEATURING JULIA AND HER FAMILY. WHILE AUTISM CAN RELIABLY BE DIAGNOSED BY AGE 2, THERE ARE OFTEN A LACK OF CULTURALLY RELEVANT RESOURCES TO ENCOURAGE EARLY SCREENING, DIAGNOSIS, AND ACCEPTANCE. WE ADAPTED THE DIGITAL STORYBOOK WE'RE AMAZING 1, 2, 3, INTO MANDARIN AND CANTONESE TO EXTEND THESE RESOURCES TO THE CHINESE AMERICAN COMMUNITY AND RELEASED SUPPLEMENTAL ARTICLES FOR CHINESE AMERICAN FAMILIES AND FOR PROVIDERS SERVING THE CHINESE AMERICAN COMMUNITY.IN MARCH 2021 ALL AUTISM RESOURCES WERE INTEGRATED ONTO THE SESAME STREET IN COMMUNITIES WEBSITE TO CONSOLIDATE WEB TRAFFIC AND CREATE A MORE FAVORABLE USER EXPERIENCE FOR ACCESSING THE AUTISM RESOURCES. THEMATIC SUBTOPICS INCLUDE FAMILY BONDING, MAKING FRIENDS, ROUTINES AND FLEXIBILITY, JUST FOR PROVIDERS, JUST FOR PARENTS, AND COPING WITH THE PANDEMIC.BASED ON AN ADVISORY HELD ON MAY 18TH, 2021 AND CONTINUED RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE AUTISTIC COMMUNITY, NEW RESOURCES WERE DEVELOPED FOCUSED ON THE THEME OF BELONGING.

ON NOVEMBER 12TH, 2021, WE ADDED TO THESE RESOURCES WITH A PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT GUIDE FOR PROVIDERS TO EXPLORE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT RACE AND INSPIRE CHILDREN TO STAY CURIOUS, AS WELL AS A BILINGUAL FAMILY GUIDE, AVAILABLE IN PRINT AND DIGITAL FORMATS. WE STRATEGICALLY PARTNERED WITH THREE KEY IMPLEMENTATION PARTNERS IN THE MILITARY SPACE (DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE EDUCATION ACTIVITY, BLUE STAR FAMILIES, AND THE MILITARY CHILD EDUCATION COALITION) WHO COMMITTED TO EMBEDDING THESE RESOURCES INTO THEIR SERVICES, CONSISTENTLY REACHING KIDS AND FAMILIES IN DIGITAL AND IN-PERSON PROGRAMMING. 18,100 PRINTED ACTIVITY BOOKS WERE DISTRIBUTED, OVER 1,000 PROVIDERS ACCESSED THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT COURSE, AND WEBINARS HIGHLIGHTING THE RESOURCES HAVE GARNERED OVER 5,000 VIEWS.

| Explanation | FIN 48 STATEMENT THE COMPANY FOLLOWS GUIDANCE THAT CLARIFIES THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN, INCLUDING ISSUES RELATING TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT. THIS GUIDANCE PROVIDES THAT THE TAX EFFECTS FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN ONLY BE RECOGNIZED IN THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IF THE POSITION IS "MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT" TO BE SUSTAINED IF THE POSITION WERE TO BE CHALLENGED BY A TAXING AUTHORITY. THE ASSESSMENT OF THE TAX POSITION IS BASED SOLELY ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LIKELIHOOD THAT THE TAX POSITION MAY BE CHALLENGED. THE COMPANY IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE (THE "CODE") SECTION 501(C)(3), THOUGH IT IS SUBJECT TO TAX ON INCOME UNRELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE, UNLESS THAT INCOME IS OTHERWISE EXCLUDED BY THE CODE.
