Explanation

SCHEDULE D, PAGE 3, PART X

HUMANE FARM ANIMAL CARE HAS ADOPTED THE ACCOUNTING OF UNCERTAINITY IN INCOME TAXES AS REQUIRED BY THE INCOME TAXES TOPIC (TOPIC 740) OF THE FASB ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION. TOPIC 740 REQUIRES HFAC TO DETERMINE WHETHER A TAX POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY THE APPLICABLE STANDARDS CODIFICATION. TOPIC 740 REQUIRES HFAC TO DETERMINE WHETHER A TAX POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY THE APPLICABLE TAXING AUTHORITY, INCLUDING RESOLTUION OF ANY RELATED APPEALS OR LITIGATION PROCESSES, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. THE TAX BENEFIT TO BE RECOGNIZED IS MEASURED AS THE LARGEST AMOUNT OF BENEFIT THAT IS MORE THAN FIFTY PERCENT LIKELY OF BEING REALIZED UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT, WHICH COULD RESULT IN HFAC RECORDING A TAX LIABILITY THAT WOULD REDUCE HFAC NET ASSETS. MANAGEMENT HAS ANALYZED HUMAN FARM ANIMAL CARE'S TAX POSITIONS, AND HAS CONCLUDED THAT NO LIABILITY FOR UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS SHOULD BE RECORDED RELATED TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS TAKEN ON RETURNS FILED FOR OPEN YEARS 2015, 2016 AND 2017, OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN ITS 2018 TAX RETURN. HFAC IS NOT AWARE OF ANY TAX POSITIONS FOR WHICH IT BELIEVES THAT THERE IS A RESONABLE POSSIBILITY THAT THE TOTAL AMOUNTS OF UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS WILL CHANGE MATERIALLY IN THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS.

FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A	EVERY FARMER AND RANCHER PARTICIPATING IN THE CERTIFIED HUMANE PROGRAM HAD TO MODIFY THEIR OPERATIONS TO MEET THE ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND BE CERTIFIED. IN 2018, 196,188,923 MILLION FARM ANIMALS WERE RAISED UNDER THE HUMANE FARM ANIMAL CARE (HFAC) ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND INSPECTED TO ENSURE THAT ALL OF OUR STANDARDS WERE MET ON FARM THROUGH SLAUGHTER. THIS WAS MADE POSSIBLE ONLY THROUGH OUR DONORS AND VOLUNTEERS. WE HAD AN INCREASE OF 25.4 MILLION FARM ANIMALS. IN ADDITION, CONSUMERS HAVE BENEFITTED FROM NOT CONSUMING UNNECESSARY ANTIBIOTICS AND ANIMAL BYPRODUCTS. FARMERS HAVE ALSO BENEFITTED BY BEING SUPPORTED AND RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR SUPERIOR FARMING PRACTICES. IN 2018, 200 COMPANIES REPRESENTED MORE THAN 6,000 FARMS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE IN THE U.S., CANADA, ARGENTINA, BRAZIL, CHILE, PERU, AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. THE CERTIFIED HUMANE FARMS AND RANCHES ARE LOCATED IN 45 STATES AND 8 COUNTRIES. CONSUMERS CAN NOW FIND PRODUCTS USING THE MOBILE APP THAT HFAC LAUNCHED IN 2012. THE APP IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND IS SUPPORTED ON IPHONES AND ANDROID DEVICES. ADDITIONALLY, HFAC'S "WHERE TO BUY" PAGE IS MOBILE ACCESSIBLE AND AVAILABLE ONLINE. CONSUMERS ARE ALSO TAKING ACTION FOR CHANGE. ON OUR "TAKE ACTION" PAGE, HTTP://WWW.CERTIFIEDHUMANE.ORG/INDEX.PHP?PAGE=TAKE-ACTION, VOLUNTEERS CAN DOWNLOAD THE CUSTOMER REQUEST AND COMMENT CARDS, AND THEY HAVE SUCCESSFULLY TAKEN THEM TO THEIR SUPERMARKETS REQUESTING THEIR SUPERMARKETS SELL PRODUCTS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE. THERE ARE SOME THAT HAVE CIRCULATED PETITIONS TO THEIR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS TO BRING TO THEIR LOCAL SUPERMARKET REQUESTING THE SUPERMARKET CARRY CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS. WE CAN ALL BE ADVOCATES FOR FARM ANIMALS BY PURCHASING CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS AND BY UTILIZING THE TOOLS PROVIDED ON OUR WEBSITE AND THROUGH OUR NEW APP. IN ORDER TO BECOME CERTIFIED BY HFAC, FARMERS MUST MEET HFAC ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND PASS ANNUAL INSPECTIONS.

MEDICINA VETERINRIA PREVENTIVA E SADE ANIMAL / FMVZ UNIVERSIDADE DE SO PAULO, PIRASSUNUNGA/SP, BRAZIL THE CREDIBILITY OF OUR PROGRAM RESTS WITH FARMERS AND RANCHERS MEETING THE HIGH WELFARE STANDARDS WE SET BY PASSING ANNUAL INSPECTIONS. THE PROGRAM ALSO MUST INSPECT PROCESSING PLANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SLAUGHTER OF THE ANIMALS IS HUMANE AND THE HANDLING OF THE ANIMALS BEFORE SLAUGHTER IS GENTLE. IN ADDITION, TRACEABILITY AUDITS ARE PERFORMED ON ALL PRODUCTS, ENSURING THAT EVERY PACKAGE, CARTON OR CASE THAT HAS THE CERTIFIED HUMANE LOGO ON IT CAN BE TRACED BACK TO THE FARM, BARN, FLOCK OR HERD THAT WAS INSPECTED AND CERTIFIED. HFAC CONTINUES TO BE THE ONLY ANIMAL WELFARE CERTIFICATION ORGANIZATION TO CONDUCT TRACEABILITY AUDITS. THIS REQUIRES THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF INSPECTORS. THE FIRST ARE THOSE THAT HAVE SPECIES-SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE AND DO THE ON FARM INSPECTIONS. THEY ARE USUALLY UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS WITH A PHD IN ANIMAL SCIENCE OR A DVM AND HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF EXPERTISE ON THE SPECIES THEY ARE INSPECTING. ADDITIONALLY, SLAUGHTER/PROCESSOR INSPECTIONS REQUIRE A DIFFERENT EXPERTISE. FOR EXAMPLE, ONLY POULTRY SCIENTISTS OR POULTRY VETERINARIANS WOULD BE CONSIDERED TO INSPECT POULTRY ON THE FARM. EVEN WITH COWS, SCIENTISTS OR VETERINARIANS WITH EXPERIENCE IN DAIRY COWS HAVE DIFFERENT EXPERTISE THAN THOSE WITH BEEF CATTLE EXPERIENCE. THESE INSPECTORS ARE SPECIALLY TRAINED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT TO LOOK FOR DURING THE SLAUGHTER PROCESS AND HOW TO RECOGNIZE INSENSIBILITY AND CAREFUL HANDLING TECHNIQUES. FINALLY, THE TRACEABILITY AUDITORS UNDERSTAND HOW TO LOOK FOR SEPARATION AND SEGREGATION OF PRODUCTS, HOW TO DO IN/OUT AUDITS TO MAKE SURE THE AMOUNT OF PRODUCT THAT COMES IN IS THE SAME AMOUNT THAT GOES OUT, AND THAT NON-CERTIFIED PRODUCT DOES NOT END UP IN PACKAGES WITH THE CERTIFIED HUMANE SEAL. WITH EVERY PRODUCER WHO AGREES TO ABIDE BY HUMANE FARM ANIMAL CARE'S, ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS, THOUSANDS MORE ANIMALS BENEFIT, AND MANY MORE FARMERS HAVE A CHANCE TO SEE THAT THEY, TOO, CAN CHANGE THE WAY THEY RAISE ANIMALS WITHOUT FEARING FOR THEIR BOTTOM LINE. FUNDING RECEIVED HAS HELPED HFAC BRING MANY SMALL FARMS, WHOSE INSPECTION FEES ARE WAIVED, INTO OUR PROGRAM. OUR PROGRAM MANUAL DESCRIBES THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS THAT QUALIFY A FARM FOR THE "SMALL FARM EXEMPTION." IF A FARM MEETS THAT CRITERIA, HFAC WAIVES THESE FEES IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT EVERY PRODUCER THAT IS WILLING TO MAKE AND SUSTAIN THE CHANGES NECESSARY TO BECOME CERTIFIED HUMANE CAN DO SO- NO MATTER HOW SMALL. ALL FARMS AND PROCESSING PLANTS ARE INSPECTED ANNUALLY TO VERIFY THAT THEY ARE MEETING ALL THE REQUIREMENTS AS DESCRIBED IN OUR ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS. (THE STANDARDS ARE AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD BY CONSUMERS AND PRODUCERS ALIKE FROM OUR WEB SITE AT WWW.CERTIFIEDHUMANE.ORG). HFAC HAS CREATED AN INFRASTRUCTURE AND PROCESSES THAT MEET THE HIGHEST INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS FOR A CERTIFICATION BODY. THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE CERTIFIED HUMANE PROGRAM ARE THE RESULT OF A COMMITTED STAFF, VOLUNTEERS, SUPPORTERS, AS GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC AND FOUNDATIONS, AND LOYAL CONSUMER WHO REQUEST AND SHOP FOR CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS.

	EVERY FARMER AND RANCHER PARTICIPATING IN THE CERTIFIED HUMANE PROGRAM HAD TO MODIFY THEIR OPERATIONS TO MEET THE ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND BE CERTIFIED. IN 2018, 196,188,923 MILLION FARM ANIMALS WERE RAISED UNDER THE HUMANE FARM ANIMAL CARE (HFAC) ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND INSPECTED TO ENSURE THAT ALL OF OUR STANDARDS WERE MET ON FARM THROUGH SLAUGHTER. THIS WAS MADE POSSIBLE ONLY THROUGH OUR DONORS AND VOLUNTEERS. WE HAD AN INCREASE OF 25.4 MILLION FARM ANIMALS. IN ADDITION, CONSUMERS HAVE BENEFITTED FROM NOT CONSUMING UNNECESSARY ANTIBIOTICS AND ANIMAL BYPRODUCTS. FARMERS HAVE ALSO BENEFITTED BY BEING SUPPORTED AND RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR SUPERIOR FARMING PRACTICES. IN 2018, 200 COMPANIES REPRESENTED MORE THAN 6,000 FARMS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE IN THE U.S., CANADA, ARGENTINA, BRAZIL, CHILE, PERU, AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. THE CERTIFIED HUMANE FARMS AND RANCHES ARE LOCATED IN 45 STATES AND 8 COUNTRIES. CONSUMERS CAN NOW FIND PRODUCTS USING THE MOBILE APP THAT HFAC LAUNCHED IN 2012. THE APP IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND IS SUPPORTED ON IPHONES AND ANDROID DEVICES. ADDITIONALLY, HFAC'S "WHERE TO BUY" PAGE IS MOBILE ACCESSIBLE AND AVAILABLE ONLINE. CONSUMERS ARE ALSO TAKING ACTION FOR CHANGE. ON OUR "TAKE ACTION" PAGE, HTTP://WWW.CERTIFIEDHUMANE.ORG/INDEX.PHP?PAGE=TAKE-ACTION, VOLUNTEERS CAN DOWNLOAD THE CUSTOMER REQUEST AND COMMENT CARDS, AND THEY HAVE SUCCESSFULLY TAKEN THEM TO THEIR SUPERMARKETS REQUESTING THEIR SUPERMARKETS SELL PRODUCTS THAT ARE CERTIFIED HUMANE. THERE ARE SOME THAT HAVE CIRCULATED PETITIONS TO THEIR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS TO BRING TO THEIR LOCAL SUPERMARKET REQUESTING THE SUPERMARKET CARRY CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS. WE CAN ALL BE ADVOCATES FOR FARM ANIMALS BY PURCHASING CERTIFIED HUMANE PRODUCTS AND BY UTILIZING THE TOOLS PROVIDED ON OUR WEBSITE AND THROUGH OUR NEW APP. IN ORDER TO BECOME CERTIFIED BY HFAC, FARMERS MUST MEET HFAC ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS AND PASS ANNUAL INSPECTIONS. HFAC'S ANIMAL CARE STANDARDS WERE DEVELOPED AND SUBJECT TO REGULAR REVIEW BY A VERITABLE "WHO'S WHO" OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ANIMAL SCIENTISTS AND FARM-ANIMAL WELFARE EXPERTS.
