The standard prescribes a minimum recognition threshold and measurement methodology that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance for de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. GLSEN is subject to regular audit by tax authorities. Management believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns. In assessing the reliability of tax benefits, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of any tax position will not be realized. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts filed. Management believes that its nonprofit status would be sustained upon examination.
