 Dear Shareholder,

The financial statements are presented in a format that all investment companies must adhere to pursuant to Security and Exchange Commission requirements and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In an investment company, the primary objective of the financial statements is to show how the net asset value changed throughout the year (net asset value is defined as the fair value of securities held, cash, receivables and other assets less liabilities).

 

 

Sincerely,

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Kavilco Incorporated (the Company) as of December 31, 2020, including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2020, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and financial highlights for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Other Matter

The financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2016 through 2018, were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 19, 2019, expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements.

 

 

/s/ BDO USA, LLP

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2019.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

Note 1. Organization

 

Kavilco Incorporated ("the Company") is a village corporation within the Sealaska region organized on November 13, 1973, pursuant to the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act ("ANCSA") of 1971. Under ANCSA, the Native claims to land in Alaska were settled in exchange for part of the state's land and compensation. Settlement benefits were given to Natives of Alaska villages in the form of ownership shares in village corporations that were organized pursuant to ANCSA. The Company was organized for the purpose of securing and administering the land and benefits for the Natives of the Kasaan village in Alaska. Contributed capital includes receipts from the U.S. government and the state of Alaska under provisions of ANCSA.

 

On November 1, 1989, the Company began to operate as a self-managed, closed end management investment company, as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the Act"). The Company is subject to various restrictions imposed by the Act and the Internal Revenue Code, including restrictions on borrowing, dividend, distribution policies, operations, and reporting requirements. The Company's investment decisions focus primarily on large-cap dividend equity investments and fixed income investments, are made by management under the direction of the Board of Directors.

 

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

New Accounting Pronouncement

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13- Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which includes amendments intended to improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies and adds certain disclosure requirements and affects companies that are required to include fair value measurement disclosures. The Company adopted Topic 820 effective January 1, 2020, which included the removal of disclosure requirements for the amounts of and the reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 and disclosure of the policy for timing of transfers between levels. The adoption of Topic 820 does not have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on deposit with banks. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Valuation of Investments

 

All investments are recorded at estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.

 

Investment Transactions and Income

 

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are computed using the last in, first out (“LIFO”) method. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis as adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums using the effective interest method. Premiums and discounts, including original issue discounts, are amortized for both tax and financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Unrealized gains and losses are included in the statement of operations.

 

Federal Income Taxes

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and Alaska State.

 

The Company's policy is to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute at least 90% of its net investment taxable income to its shareholders. Generally, no federal income tax provision is required for the Company.

 

The Company records a liability, if any, for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. No liability has been recorded for uncertain tax positions or related interest or penalties as of December 31, 2020.

 

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

 

Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the payable date. Dividends are generally declared and paid twice a year. Capital gain distributions are generally declared and paid annually. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations and may differ from those determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Directors' Compensation and Expenses

 

Each member of the Board of Directors receives compensation for each board meeting attended during the year, in addition to a per diem allowance. Directors are also reimbursed for such expenses as accommodation, airfare, and car rental related to Board meetings. In addition to meeting related expenses, the Company pays for the medical insurance and out of pocket expenses of certain directors.

 

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued, which was February 26, 2021, and did not note any items that would adjust the financial statements or require additional disclosure.

 

Note 3. Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. There are three levels that prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

·         Level 1: Observable market inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

·         Level 2: Observable market inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

·         Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

An asset's or liability's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value, including a general description of the asset.

 

Money Market Funds

 

Fair value of money market funds is determined using quoted market prices and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Equity Securities (Common Stock)

 

Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market) are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Real Estate

 

Real estate represents entitlement to the surface estate of real property, for which no readily available market quotation exists. Fair value of real estate is determined by management based on a Certified Forester's opinion as to the current value and status of the land, along with other factors. Other relevant factors include the lack of commercially viable timber due to previous harvest, amount of capital expenditures required for the future growth of timber, location of the property, recent sales of similar real property in the region and market demand and supply for this type of real property during the valuation process. Real estate is included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

The following table presents information about the Company's investments in securities and real estate measured at fair value as of December 31, 2020:

 

          Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Balance
Investments in Securities              
  U.S. Common Stock  $  32,335,737            $  32,335,737
  Money Market Fund        1,589,986                  1,589,986
           $  33,925,723    $               -       $               -       $  33,925,723
Real Estate  $               -       $               -       $    6,292,000    $    6,292,000

 

 

At December 31, 2020, there were no realized gain (loss), cost or purchases, proceeds from sales, or transfers in or out of Level 3 at the end of the reporting period.

 

Note 4. Real Estate

 

At December 31, 2020, the Company owns fee title to the surface estate of 22,946 acres of real estate located in southeast Alaska.

 

As of December 31, 2020, there is no commercially viable timber on the real estate and the Company has no outstanding timber agreements. The last harvest and sale of timber from this land was in 2001.

 

The financial statements include real estate valued at $6,292,000 in 2020, the value of which was determined by an independent appraisal. There was no change in value of the real estate at December 31, 2020 from December 31, 2019. The board approved the fair value estimate of the real estate.

 

Note 5. Trading Risk

 

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into financial transactions involving instruments where there is risk of potential loss due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to the transaction to perform (credit risk).

 

Market risk is the potential change in value caused by fluctuations in market prices of an underlying financial instrument. Subsequent market fluctuations may require selling investments at prices that differ from the values reflected on the statement of assets and liabilities. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which financial instruments are traded. The Company's exposure to market risk may be increased in that a significant portion of its assets may be invested in a relatively small number of investment positions at any one time. Accordingly, appreciation or depreciation in value of investment positions may have a more significant effect on the value of the Company's portfolio than would be the case in a more diversified or hedged portfolio.

 

Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of the counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Company's exposure to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance includes cash deposits that may exceed applicable insurance limits. The Company seeks to control such credit risk by maintaining deposits with only high-quality financial institutions and trading exchange traded financial instruments, which generally do not give rise to significant counterparty exposure due to the requirements of the individual exchanges.

 

Catastrophe – Force Majeure Risk

 

The occurrence of catastrophic events (such as hurricanes, earthquakes, pandemics, such as COVID-19, acts of terrorism and other catastrophes) could adversely affect the values recorded in the Company's financial statements.

 

Note 6. Investment Transactions

 

Purchases of investment securities (common stock and publicly traded partnerships) aggregated $2,300,482 for the year ended December 31, 2020, and sales and maturities of investment securities (consisting of corporate bonds and common stock) aggregated $1,286,041 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

The U.S. federal income tax basis of the Company's investments is the same as for financial reporting purposes. The gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation for U.S. federal income tax purposes is $6,013,748 and $5,741,354, respectively, as of December 31, 2020.

 

Note 7. Premises and Equipment

 

The following is a summary of premises and equipment at December 31, 2020:

 

        Building  $           170,601
        Furniture, fixtures, and equipment                92,363
                       262,964
        Less accumulated depreciation             (253,015)
           $              9,949

 

 

All assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 5 to 15 years. Depreciation expense was $8,391 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Note 8. Lease Obligation

 

The Company leases office space under a non-cancelable operating lease agreement, which terminates September 30, 2021. Pursuant to the lease agreement, the Company paid a lease deposit of $3,528 which will be credited to the last month's rent. The right of use asset amounting to $33,880 at December 31, 2020, is included in prepaid expenses and other assets, and the lease liability amounting to $32,437 at December 31, 2020, is included in other liabilities. Future minimum lease commitments under this non-cancelable operating lease are $32,787.

 

Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $42,854.

 

Note 9. Net Assets

 

Upon organization of the Company, 100 shares of common stock (Class A) were issued to each qualified shareholder enrolled in the Company pursuant to ANCSA. The Company utilized a roll comprising 120 Alaska Natives eligible to receive stock certificates as certified by the U.S. Secretary of the Interior. Under the provisions of ANCSA, stock dividends paid or other stock grants are restricted, and the stock may not be sold, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated, except in certain circumstances by court decree or death, unless approved by a majority of the shareholders. The stock carries voting rights only if the holder hereof is an eligible Alaska Native. Nonvoting common stock (Class B) is issued to non-Native persons who inherit stock or are gifted stock.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

Shareholders and Board of Directors Kavilco Incorporated

Kasaan, Alaska

 

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Kavilco Incorporated ("the Company") as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, in accordance with the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), we considered the Company's internal control over financial reporting, including controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Our consideration of the Company's internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no deficiencies in the Company's internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above as of December 31, 2020.

 

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Directors of the Company and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

ITEM 2. CODE OF ETHICS.

Kavilco adopted a code of ethics on January 29, 1990. The code of ethics was amended on May 9, 2008 and is available on the registrant's website at: www.kavilco.com.

 

ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.

Kavilco Incorporated is subject to the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (Act). Pursuant to the Act, Kavilco’s stock and dividends may not be sold, pledged, subjected to a lien or judgment execution, assigned in present or future, or otherwise alienated, except pursuant to court decree of separation or child support. However, the stock can be gifted to a relative provided the recipient is a descendant of an Alaska Native.

 

The Chief Financial Officer has no control over the financial records of the corporation. The Corporate Secretary maintains the accounting records. Monthly, an independent accountant performs various reconciliations and adjusting journal entries on the corporate books and records.

Kavilco does not have an audit committee. The CFO reviews the entire audited financial statements and various CPA correspondence with the board of directors. Two board members have degrees in business. However, pursuant to SEC regulations their experience would not qualify them as financial experts. The only contentious financial issue that Kavilco has had to deal with since becoming an Investment Company involves the evaluation of our land holdings in Alaska. After a two-year battle with our previous auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and pressure by the Security Exchange Commission, the board relented and increased the value of our land holdings. The CFO opposed this action because it served no practical purpose.

The primary purpose of a financial expert serving on the board of directors is to prevent the gross accounting inequities that were driven by greed and outright thievery at such firms as Qwest Communications, Enron and Tyco. There is no incentive on behalf of management to commit fraud since Kavilco’s stock cannot be publicly traded and we do not have compensation incentives. More importantly, the board of directors is not a rubber stamp for management. Many of the shareholders are related to the directors, which acts as an additional incentive to have a high degree of business probity.

Kavilco has never been involved in financial deceit. This superior track record can only be attributable to the excellent oversight of an active and knowledgeable board of directors. Accordingly, Kavilco does not have an audit committee or a financial expert as defined by the SEC.

The board of directors adopted the following resolution during the November 2003 board meeting.

Kavilco Incorporated Resolution 11-14-03b: Proxy Voting Policies

RESOLVED, where there is a material conflict of interest where the Chief Financial Officer has a business, personal, or family relationship with a public company, voting will be deferred until the next scheduled board of directors meeting at which time the issue will be discussed.

RESOLVED, pursuant to rule 30b1-4 under the Investment Company Act, Kavilco will file form N-PX with the SEC detailing a complete voting record. This filing will be made for a 12-month period commencing on June 30, 2004. In addition, this information will be available on Kavilco’s web site as soon as reasonably practicable, after filing the report with the SEC, which means the same day, absent unforeseen circumstances.
