To the Citizens of Cupertino, Honorable Mayor,
Members of the City Council, and City Manager:
It is our pleasure to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the City of Cupertino (the City), California for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. The report is prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) set by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The report presents City information on an entity-wide basis and a more detailed fund-level basis. The fund-level reports emphasize the City’s major funds. A Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) presents a comparative analysis of current and prior year results, changes in financial position, a comparison of actual versus budget, financial highlights, trends, and disclosure of any known significant events or decisions that affect the financial condition of the City. This transmittal letter is designed to complement the MD&A and should, therefore, be read in conjunction with it. The MD&A is required supplementary information and is found in the Financial Section of the ACFR.
The accuracy of the data presented and the complete ness and fairness of the presentations, including all disclosures, are the responsibility of the management of the City. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management has established a co mprehensive internal control framework that is designed to protect the City’s assets and provide sufficient, reliable information for the proper preparation of these financial statements. We believe the data is accurate in all material respects and is presented in a manner that fairly sets forth the City’s financial pos ition. Furthermore, we believe that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City’s financial activity have been included.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
The City of Cupertino is located in Santa Clara C ounty at the southern end of the San Francisco Bay Peninsula. The City is comprised of 13-square mile s and is bordered by the cities of San Jose, Saratoga, Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, and Los Altos. It has a residential population of 59,831 (California Department of Finance, January 2025).
Situated at the west end of Silicon Valley, the City has earned the reputation of a balanced community with a healthy climate for business and well-maintained residential neighborhoods, community parks and public facilities. The excellent reputation of Cupertino’s schools is a major attraction for families wishing to settle in close proximity to high-wage jobs in Silicon Valley. The City recognizes the importance of quality school facilities and programs to all Cupertino residents a nd works in partnership with the schools in many programs affecting education and youth. National surveys rank the city high in education levels, average household incomes, and registered patent numbers, as we ll as one of the best cities in which to live and raise a family.
The City is world renowned as the home of high-tech giants, such as Apple, Inc. and Amazon, and as a community with stellar public schools. De Anza Co llege, one of the largest single-campus community colleges in the country, is another major employer and a magnet for attracting local and international students. The City’s continued commitment to supporting a vibrant local community has resulted in an innovative environment for start-ups and growing companies to thrive. The City strives to retain and attract local companies through active outreach and a responsive and customer-oriented permitting process.
The City is excited to feature a number of new mi xed-use development projects offering more retail and dining options, as well as providing additional housing opportunities to meet the needs of the growing community.
The Main Street and Nineteen800 mixed-use developments continue to offer a vibrant downtown area for the City, with a large selection of restaurants and retailers, including Alexander’s Steakhouse, Eureka!, Oren’s Hummus, Lazy Dog, Ippudo, HaiDiLao Hotpot Restaurant, Pressed Juicery, Orangetheory Fitness, 85 Degree Bakery, Somi Somi, Sul & Beans, Kura Sushi, Vitality Bowls, Holder's Country Inn, HEYTEA, Bishops Cuts/Color, Capezio, Pineapple Thai, Koi Pa lace Contempo, Pacific Catch, Philz Coffee, Meri West Bank, AT&T Store, The Original Facial Bar, Pizza My Heart, and Charles Schwab (formerly TD Ameritrade), . Housing, office, and a Residence I nn by Marriott and Main Street Cupertino Lofts are available to support the thriving area. Benihana, Bowl mor, and Cupertino Ice Center also serve as long- time anchors.
The limited construction of new re tail and commercial development r esults in strengthening existing popular venues in Cupertino, including The Marketpl ace. The Marketplace has a variety of stores and restaurants popular with students, families, and working professionals. They include Sanrio (Hello Kitty), Kiddleton, Galpao Gaucho (Brazilian Steakhouse), Daiso, Marukai Groceries, Harumi Sushi, La Patisserie Bakery, Beard Papa’s, Legend’s Pizza, Icicles, Kong’s Tofu & BBQ, and One Pot Shabu Shabu.

iii

A state-of-the-art Visitors Center, Observation Deck, flagship retail store and café offer the public a place to learn, explore, and shop.
California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA)
The City recently achieved a favorable resolution to a California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) audit involving a major sales taxpayer. In anticipation of a potentially adverse outcome, the City proactively established a $74.5 million Sales Tax Repayment Reserve to fully account for disputed revenues and accrued interest.
Following the October 2024 settlement, the City determined that the full reserve was no longer necessary.
Of the $74.5 million, $10.0 million was used to make an Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) toward the City’s CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability, with the remaining $64.5 million transferred to a Future Use Reserve within the General Fund. This strate gic action demonstrates the City’s commitment to responsible financial planning, reinforces long-term fiscal sustainability, and positions Cupertino to better manage future economic uncertainties.
Property Tax
According to the 2024-2025 Assessor’s Annual Report for Santa Clara County, Cupertino’s net assessment roll growth increased by nearly $1,413 million, or 4. 4%, from the prior year. Residential use values increased 5.7%, a total of $1,147 million, and represented 81.2% of net positive growth experienced in the City. Commercial properties posted an increase of $225.1 million, or 2.5%, due to the movement of assets from the secured to the unsecured roll. The industrial properties reported growth of $115.8 million, or 7.7%, on the strength of parcels adding improvement values between tax years or tenants at these sites adding fixtures and business assets. Unsecured assets in Cupertino decreased by $64.7 million, or -5.7% due to the movement of assets from the secured to the unsecured roll, which contributed to the large growth in unsecured seen in the commercial use category.
Sales Tax
The City has experienced significant fluctuations in sales tax revenues over the past several fiscal years.
Revenues peaked at $42.6 million in FY 2020–21, dr iven by increased demand for technology and online purchases during the pandemic, particularly in the Business and Industry and State & County Pools categories. As in-person shopping resumed, sales ta x revenues declined to $34 .8 million in FY 2022–23 and further to $31.0 million in FY 2023–24, returning to pre-pandemic levels.
iv
Much of the initial growth during FY 2020–21 and FY 2021 –22 was concentrated in the Business and Industry and State & County Pools categories. Howeve r, these groups returned to FY 2019–20 levels by FY 2022–23, with other industry segments showing modest but steady growth. In FY 2023–24, the Business and Industry group experienced the largest decline, which also negatively impacted the State and County Pools. FY 2024–25 continued this dow nward trend, primarily due to the resolution of the CDTFA audit, discussed in further detail below, and the resulting re allocation of sales taxes. Because State and County Pools are directly linked to the City's overall direct allocations, the pooled distributions also declined accordingly.
In FY 2024–25, the City’s sales tax revenue was comp rised of eight major industry groups: Business and Industry and State & County Pools (73.7%), Restaurants and Hotels (13.0%), General Consumer Goods (6.3%), Fuel and Service Stations (3.2%), Food and Drugs (1.9%), Building and Construction (1.4%), and Autos and Transportation (0.3%). Due to confidentiality requirements, the percentage for State & County Pools is included within the Business and Industry category. These figures underscore the City’s continued reliance on technology-driven sectors while also highligh ting the growing role of hospitality and retail industries in the City’s economic landscape.
Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)
The City remains committed to responsibly managing its long‑term pension and retiree medical obligations.
As of the most recent CalPERS actuarial valuation (measured as of June 30, 2024), the City’s Miscellaneous Plan reported an unfunded accrued liability (UAL) of approximately $56.4 million and a funded status of
70.7%.
Despite external fiscal pressures, the City continues to address its pension and retiree medical obligations through disciplined, long-term fina ncial planning. Cupertino proac tively manages these commitments by implementing cost-control measures, such as reducing pension benefits for new hires under state law and increasing employee contributions. The City also levera ges its Section 115 Pension Trust (established in FY 2017–18 as part of a pension rate stabilization strategy), which has received $16 million in contributions to date. This trust remains a critical tool for managing cost volatility and ensuring long-term sustainability.
In FY 2024–25, the City made an Additional Discre tionary Payment (ADP) of $10.0 million directly to CalPERS to further reduce its unfunded liability. This payment is not reflected in the June 30, 2024 actuarial valuation, but it is expected to materially improve the City’s funded status in the next valuation cycle. The timing of this payment was fiscally advantageous, occurring in a year when CalPERS reported a preliminary investment return of 11.6%, significantly above its 6. 8% assumed rate of return, helping the City achieve immediate and long‑term savings.
As of June 30, 2025, the City’s Net OPEB Asset stands at approximately $1.26 million, with a funded status of 103.0%. While the City has traditionally contributed annually to its retiree health plan trust, the City paused its contributions in FY 2022-23 to help balance potential General Fund deficits resulting from the CDTFA audit. This decision underscores Cupertino’s flexibility in addressing short-term fiscal challenges while remaining committed to the long-term sustainability of its OPEB obligations.
The City benefits from its contracted approach to public safety services, outsourcing police operations to the County Sheriff and fire protection to a special district. This structure avoids the significant pension and capital costs associated with operating its own public safety departments. Additionally, prudent financial practices, including maintaining robust reserve s and implementing cost-saving measures, position Cupertino to navigate economic uncertainties effectively.
v
ECONOMIC INITIATIVES
The City remains committed to fostering economic diversity and maintaining long-term fiscal sustainability. While Cupertino benefits from a thri ving high-tech economy, le d by major employers like Apple Inc., the City is focused on broadening its revenue base to enhance stability and growth.
This includes supporting the development of emerging industries, promoting local entrepreneurship, and investing in innovative infrastructure that attracts diverse businesses. By fostering a vibrant mix of industry sectors, from technology to retail and services, the City aims to create a resilient economy that can adapt to changing market conditions, ensuring sustained prosperity for the community and future generations.
ACCOUNTING AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
In developing and evaluating the City’s accounting sy stem, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. The City’s controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against losses from unauthorized use or disposition and the reliability of financial records for preparing financ ial statements and maintaining accountability of assets.
The concept of reasonable assurance re cognizes that the costs of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and that the evaluation of cost s and benefits requires est imates and judgments by management.
The City’s budget is a detailed operating plan that id entifies estimated costs and results in relation to estimated revenues. The budget includes 1) the progr ams, projects, services and activities to be provided during the fiscal year; 2) estimated revenue and fund balance available to finance the operating plan; and 3) the estimated spending requirements of the ope rating plan. The budget represents a process through which policy decisions are made, implemented and controlled.
SINGLE AUDIT
In accordance with the Single Audit Act of 1984 and the U.S. Office of Management and Budget’s Uniform Guidance, the City is required to undergo an annua l Single Audit if total federal expenditures exceed $750,000 within a given fiscal year. In FY 2024–25, the City expended federal funds in excess of this threshold, primarily from the U.S. Department of Transportation passed through the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), triggering the requirement for a Single Audit.
The Single Audit will commence upon completion of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR).
As prescribed by federal regulations, the Single Audit must be completed and submitted no later than nine months after the close of the fiscal year, ensuring continued transparency and compliance with federal grant requirements.
INDEPENDENT AUDIT
City ordinance requires an annual audit of the financial records by an independent certified public accounting firm selected by the City Council and its audit committee. The Pun Group LLP audited the City’s Basic Financial Statements, and their opinion th ereon is included in the Financial Section of this report.
vi
CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Cupertino for its ACFR for the year ended June 30, 2024. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government unit must publish an easily readable and efficiently organi zed ACFR. This report must satisfy both GAAP and applicable legal requirements.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I would like to express my appreciation to City employees, department heads, the City Manager, members of the Audit Committee, and members of the City C ouncil for their commitment to conducting the City’s financial operations in a responsible manner.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Cupertino
Cupertino, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activiti es, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Cupertino, California (the “City”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the basic fi nancial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2025, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to fi nancial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards , issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under tho se standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements secti on of our report. We are requi red to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Other Matters
Change in Accounting Principle - Implementation of GASB 101
As discussed in Note 1 to the basic financial statements, the City adopted new accounting guidance, Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) Statement No. 101, Compensated absences. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. The adoption of this standard r esulted in the restatement of the City’s net position as of June 30, 2024.
Prior Period Adjustments
As discussed in the Note 15 to the basi c financial statements, the City also re corded prior period adjustment in the governmental activities in the amount of $5,742,773 due to correction of recording capital assets.
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Cupertino
Cupertino, California
2 Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the prep aration and fair presentation of the fi nancial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Stat es of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate wh ether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ab ility to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial st atement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whet her the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, a nd to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards ge nerally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the ove rride of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards, we
• exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
• identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
• obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
• evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
• conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal cont rol-related matters that we identified during the audit.
To the Honorable Mayor and the Members of the City Council of the City of Cupertino
Cupertino, California
3 Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United Stat es of America require that Management’s Discussion and Analysis, the Budgetary Comparison Sc hedules – General Fund and Major Speci al Revenue Funds, the Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, the Schedule of Contributions – Pensions, the Schedules of Changes in Net Other Postemployment Benefits Liability and Related Ratios, and the Schedule of Contributions – Other Postemployment Benefits as listed in the table of co ntents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of mana gement and, although not a pa rt of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain lim ited procedures to the required supplemen tary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and compar ing the information for cons istency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements , and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do no t express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the re sponsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare th e basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such in formation directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund fi nancial statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the othe r information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the Introductory Section and the Statistical Section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the basi c financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistenc y exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially mi sstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
5 As management of the City of Cupertino (City), we offer readers of the City's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities for the fi scal year ended June 30, 2025 (FY 2024-25). Readers are encouraged to consider the following information in c onjunction with the accompanying Transmittal Letter and Basic Financial Statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The comparisons provided in this discussion and analysis are between FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25. All increases and decreases are expressed relative to FY 2023-2024 amounts. Financial highlights for FY 2024-25 are summarized below.
Details related to these highlights are found in the remaining sections of this analysis.
Government-wide
The City's total net position, the amount by which tota l assets and deferred outflows of resources exceed total liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, equaled $460.8 million in FY 2024-25 and $430.5 million in FY 2023-
24. Of this amount, $170.7 million is unrestricted and may be u sed to meet the City's ongoing obligations to residents and creditors at June 30, 2025. The remaining net position at June 30, 2025 is classified as net investment in capital assets of $212.5 million and restricted of $77.6 million.
The City's total net position increased by $30.3 million over FY 2023-24, and is largely attributed to revenues exceeding expenses as reported in the statement of activiti es. The remainder of this report will provide a more detailed analysis of the City's net position and operating activities that contributed to this increase.
In October 2023, the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) issued its final audit determination regarding a major sales taxpayer, concluding that a substantial portion of sales tax revenues had been misallocated to Cupertino. In anticipation of this out come, the City had proactively established a $74.5 million committed Sales Tax Repayment Reserve. Following settlement discussions and finalization of the agreement in September 2024, the City Council voted in October 2024 to reallocate the reserve funds: $10.0 million was used for an Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) toward the City’s CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL), and the remaining $64.5 million was transferred to a newly established Future Use Reserve. These decisions are reflected in the FY 2024–25 financial statements and demonstrate the City’s continued fiscal prudence in addressing long-term liabilities and future needs.
As interest rates began to decline during the fiscal year , the market value of the City’s investment portfolio improved. As of June 30, 2025, the City ’s portfolio reached 100.5% of its b ook value, up from 98.1% the prior year, reflecting favorable market conditions and a recovering fixed-income environment. This resulted in a positive year-over-year mark-to-market adjustment of $5.7 million.
A prior period adjustment of $403,451 was reco rded to implement GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. This adjustment ensures compliance with update d guidance for the recognition and measurement of compensated absences liabilities. Additional details are provided in Note 15 to the Basic Financial Statements.
A second prior period adjustment of $5,742,773 was ma de to recognize capital improvements performed by San Jose Water Company on City-owned water infrastructure. These improvements, which were previously unrecorded, are now included as part of the City's capital assets. Further information can be found in Note 15.

6 Fund Level
As of June 30, 2025, governmental funds report a combined fund balance of $265.0 million, an increase of $19.0 million from the prior year. Of this amount, $56.1 million is available for spending at the City's discretion (unassigned fund balance).
As of June 30, 2025, the General F und reports an ending fund balance of $181.8 million. Of this amount, $56.1 million is available for spending at the City's discretion (unassigned fund balance). Cash and investments of the General Fund total $188.1 million, which represents 103.5% of the General Fund's total fund balance.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s Basic Financial Statements. The Basic Financial Statements are comprised of the Government-wide Financial Statements, the Fund Financial Statements, and the notes to the Basic Financial Statements. These two sets of financial statements provide two different views of the City’s financial activities and positions.
The Government-Wide Financial Statements provide a long-term view of the City’s activities as a whole and comprise the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities . These statements are prepared on an accrual basis, which means they measure the flow of all economic resources of the City as a whole. The accrual basis of accounting is similar to the accounting used by most private sector companies. The Statement of Net Position provides information about the financial position of the City as a whole, including all its capital assets and long-term liabilities.
The Statement of Activities provides information about all the City’s revenues and expenses, with the emphasis on measuring net revenues and expenses for each of the City’s programs. The Statement of Activities explains in detail the change in net position for the year. Over time, increases or decreases in net position can be indicators of whether the financial condition of the City is improving or deteriorating.
All of the City’s activities are grouped into Governmental activities and Business-type activities, as explained below.
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities provide a summary of these two types of activities for the City as a whole.
Governmental activities—Most of the City’s basic services are consider ed to be governmental activities, including public works, law enforcement, community development, recreation, public & environmental affairs, and general administration. These services are supported by general City revenues such as property, sales and other taxes, and by specific program revenues such as developer fees and grants.
The City’s governmental activities include the activities of a separate legal en tity, the Cupertino Public Facilities Corporation (the “Corporation”), because the City is considered to be financially accountable for the Corporation.
The City leases its major facilities from the Corporation, wh ich then uses the lease paymen ts to pay principal and interest on the Corporation’s long-term debt.
Business-type activities—All of the City’s enterprises are reported here, including solid waste management and most of the City’s recreational operations. Unlike governmental services, these services are supported by charges paid by users based on the amount of services used.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) (Continued) For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
7 The Fund Financial Statements report the City’s operations in more de tail than the Government-wide Financial Statements and focus primarily on the short-term activities of the City’s General Fund and other major funds. The Fund Financial Statements provide detailed information about each of the City’s most significant funds, called major funds.
Cupertino’s Fund Financial Statements include governmental, enterprise and internal service funds as discussed below.
Each major fund is presented individually, with all non-major funds summarized and presented only in a single column.
Subordinate schedules, which follow the Notes to Basic Financial Statements, present the details of these non-major funds. Major funds present the significant activities of the C ity for the year and may change from year to year as a result of changes in the pattern of th e City’s activities and public interest. For example, the Capital Improvement Projects Fund may or may not appear as a major fund depending on the volume of construction activity in a certain year.
Governmental Fund financial statements are prepared on a modified accrual basis, which means they measure only current financial resources and uses. They present essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, capita l assets and other long-lived assets, along with long-term liabilities, are not presented in the Governmental Fund financ ial statements. Reconciliations are provided to facilitate a comparison between governmental funds and governmental activity statements to allow a better understanding of the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financial decisions.
Comparisons of budget and actual financial information are included in the Basic Financial Statements for the General Fund and other major Special Revenue Funds. For othe r nonmajor funds, budgetary comparison schedules for these funds are included in this document as supplemental information only.
Enterprise and Internal Service Fund financial statements are prepared on a full accrual basis and include current and long-term assets and liabilities and deferred outflows and inflows of resources. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the City-wide Financial Statements, and in more detail in the Fund Financial Statements.
Since the City’s Internal Service funds provide goods and services only to the City’s governmental and business-type activities, their activities are reported only in total at the fu nd level. Internal Service funds may not be major funds because their revenues are derived from other City funds. These revenues are eliminated in the City-wide financial statements and any related profits or losses are returned to the activities which created them, along with any residual net position of the Internal Service funds. For this City, internal service activities predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, and are therefore included within governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements.
The Notes to Basic Financial Statements provide important additional detail that is essential to a full understanding of the data reported in the Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements.

8 GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
This analysis focuses on the net positio n and changes in net position of the City’s Governmental and Business-Type Activities as presented in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities.
Total assets increased by $38.1 million, primarily due to a $41.6 million increase in cash and investments. This growth reflects stronger operating results and cash retained from one -time revenues, including proceeds from the sale of City property and favorable investment performance.
Deferred outflows of resources increased by $5.2 million, mainly due to a $6.1 million increase in pension-related items.
This was partially offset by a $1.0 million reduction in OPEB-related deferrals.
Total liabilities decreased by $8.9 million, largely reflecti ng a combination of long-term and short-term reductions.
Long-term debt declined by $2.5 millio n due to scheduled debt service paymen ts, while pension and OPEB liabilities decreased by $1.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Current liabilities also dropped by $6.4 million, driven by reductions in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. These decreases were partially offset by minor increases across other liability categories.
Deferred inflows of resources increased by $21.8 million, primarily due to a $20.3 million increase related to lease revenue recognition. This reflects the straight-line am ortization of the $22.1 milli on concession fee received in October 2024 under a 12-year agreement, in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
Over time, net position may serve as a useful indicator of a City's financial position. At J une 30, 2025, the City’s net position was $460.8 million, an increase of $30.3 million or 7.0%, over the net positi on of $430.5 million at June 30, 2024.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) (Continued) For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
9 The largest portion of the City's net position ($212.5 million or 46.1% ) is its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, infrastructure, and equipment, right-to-use assets, etc.). The City uses capital assets to provide services to residents; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. This category of net position increased mainly from ongoing pavement management impr ovements, an all-inclusive playground at Jollyman Park, and Regnart Road improvements.
The City's restricted net position totals $77.7 million (16.9% of total net position). Restricted net position represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on ho w they may be used. The remaining balance of $170.7 million (37.0%) represents unrestricted net position; this category of net position may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to residents and creditors.
Total net position increased by $30.3 million from an excess of revenues over expenses. This net increase was reflected by an increase of $1.7 million, $4.2 million, and $24.4 million in net investments in capital assets, restricted net position and unrestricted net position, respectively. The excess of revenues over expenses will be analyzed in conjunction with the Statement of Activities.
The following is a summary of the government-wide Statement of Activities, which illustrates the City’s overall $30.3 million increase in net position resulting from program expenses being less than total program and general revenues. A discussion regarding significant changes in revenues and expenses follows the table.

CITY OF CUPERTINO
Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) (Continued) For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
10 Government-wide revenues totaled $133.5 million in FY 2024-25, an increase of $4.4 million (3.4%) compared to the prior year. This increase was driven by broad-based growth across most revenue categories, including a $6.3 million increase in investment income, $2.8 million in charges fo r services, $2.5 million in capita l grants, and $2.4 million in operating grants. These gains were partially offset by a $13.5 million decline in sales tax revenue, primarily due to the tax reallocation required by the CDTFA audit.
The rise in investment income reflects both strong portfolio performance and unrealized mark-to-market gains resulting from improving bond valuations as interest rates began to decline.
The City’s largest revenue source continued to be property taxes and in-lieu motor vehicle fees, which comprised 25.8% of total revenue. Charges for services accounted for 21.6%, sales taxes contributed 13.1%, and investment income made up 13.7%. Grants and contributions represented 9.9%, while the remaining 15.9% came from other taxes and fees.
Government-wide expenses for all City programs and services totaled $103.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, representing a slight net decrease of $56.3 thousand (0.1%) from the prior year. This reflects an increase of $388.1 thousand in Governmental Activities and a d ecrease of $444.4 thousand in Business-Type Activities.
Expenses include adjustments for depreciation, long-term debt, and pension and OPEB costs. The most significant increases were in Law Enforcement ($0.7 million), Parks and Recreation ($1.0 million) , and Public Works ($2.8 million), which were offset by reductions in Administration ($2.5 million), Administrative Services ($0.6 million), and Community Development ($1.3 million).
Public Works accounted for the largest share of expenses at 40.3%, followed by Law Enforcement at 16.9%, Parks and Recreation at 14.0%, Community Development at 12.0%, Ad ministrative Services at 7.3%, Administration at 6.4%, Innovation and Technology at 3.0%, and Interest Expense at 0.2%.
Governmental activities contributed $32.1 million before transfers to the increase in net position resulting from revenues exceeding expenses. Governmental activities compri se the majority of the government-wide data, and explanations for changes in government-wide and governmental activities are often similar.
Revenues of governmental activities report a net increase over the prior year of $6.1 million (5.0%), to $127.2 million.
Approximately $6.1 million of this increase is related to interest income. Charges for service increased by $4.5 million.
Property tax revenue increased by $1.4 million, and operating and capital grants increased by $4.9 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in sales tax by 13.5 million.
Expenses of governmental activities increased by a net $389 t housand (0.41%). Expenses include interest, OPEB, and pension costs. The net increase is spread across the City's programs with La w Enforcement ($0.7 million), Parks and Recreation ($2.1 million), and Public Works ($2.2 million), which were offset by reductions in Administration ($2.5 million), Administrative Services ($0.6 million), and Communi ty Development ($1.3 million). Interest expense and Innovation and Technology experienced a negligible change.

CITY OF CUPERTINO
Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) (Continued) For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
12 Business-type activities include four enterprise funds, which support recreational and solid waste operations. These enterprise funds are operated similarly to private businesses, with the intent that the costs of providing services and facilities to the public are primarily funded through user fees. Additional detail can be found in the Major Proprietary Funds section of this report.
As of June 30, 2025, the net position for business-type activities totaled $9.2 million, reflecting a decrease of $0.6 million (or 6.2%) from the prior year, primarily due to operating costs exceeding revenues. Total revenues from business-type activities declined by $1.7 million (23.3%) to $7.9 million, while investment income rose by $0.1 million.
Operating expenses fell by $0.4 million, totaling $8.0 million for the year.
The operating loss was largely attributed to the Cupertino Sports Center, Recreation Programs, and Blackberry Farm.
Notably, the Sports Center renegotiated its service contract s to a net revenue model, in which contractor costs are excluded from gross revenues. This change is reflected in a $1.1 million decrease in reported revenue and a $1.3 million decrease in contract service expenses.
FUND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
For FY 2024-25, the City included the following major governmental funds: General Fund, Transportation Special Revenue Fund, Housing Development Speci al Revenue Fund, Public Facilities Corporation Debt Service Fund, and the Capital Improvement Capital Projects Fund.
General Fund
The General Fund’s fund balance increased by $15.7 million. This increase was driven by total revenues and other financing sources of $115.4 million, which exceeded total expenditures of $86.4 million and transfers out of $13.2 million.
General Fund revenues increased by a net $1.4 million compar ed to FY 2023–24, while expenditures rose by $10.3 million year over year. However, actual expenditures were $6.6 million below budget. This variance is primarily attributed to personnel savings across all departments due to a high number of vacant positions, as operating budgets are prepared at full staffing levels.
Transportation
The Transportation Special Revenue Fund carried a June 30, 2025, ending fund balance of $13.3 million, decreasing by 2.7%, or $0.4 million from the beginning of the fiscal y ear. In recent years this fund has accumulated fund balance year over year. The current year’s decrease is primarily attributed to the progression of scheduled projects.
Housing Development
The Housing Development Special Revenue Fund carried a J une 30, 2025, ending fund ba lance of $11.4 million, up
2.7%, or $0.3 million, from the beginning of the fiscal year.
Public Facilities Corporation
The Cupertino Public Facilities Corporation (PFC) is a legally separate component unit established to facilitate long- term debt financing for public capital im provements. The Corporation's financia l activity is limited to servicing debt obligations and is reported within the Debt Service Fund.
As of June 30, 2025, the PFC had a fund balance of $0, reflecting a $250 decrease from the prior year. This zero balance is expected to remain consistent in future fiscal years in line with the Corporation’s in tended structure and minimal activity level.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) (Continued) For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
13 For additional details regarding debt obligations administered through the Corporation, see the “Debt Administration” section.
Capital Improvement Projects
As of June 30, 2025, the Capital Improvement Projects Fund had an ending fund balance of $33.1 million, representing a $1.0 million increase from the prior fiscal year. This increase was primarily dr iven by transfers from the General Fund, partially offset by expenditures related to ongoing capital projects.
MAJOR PROPRIETARY FUNDS
Resource Recovery
The City has a solid waste franchise agreement with Recology that shares collec tion, landfill disposal, and recycling revenues and costs. This fund receives revenues from Recology with the funds going toward landfill costs, regulatory fees, and staffing costs that the City incurs to manage its solid waste, recycling, and household hazardous waste programs. Total operating revenue and expenses is at $1.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Considering net non- operating revenues of $0.3 million and net transfers of $0.2 million, net position decreased by $0.5 million to an ending fund balance of $4.6 million.
Recreation Programs
This enterprise operates the Quinlan Community Center, Monta Vista Recreation Center, McClellan Ranch, Creekside Park building, eight school sites, and various parks. These programs generated approximately $2.0 million in revenues and program expenses of approximately $2.3 million. Considerin g net non-operating revenues of $0.1 million and net transfers of $0.1 million, the program experienced a net opera ting gain of $16.1 thousand. The fund ended the year with a net position of $2.8 million.
Cupertino Sports Center
The Cupertino Sports Center offers a broad range of health and wellness activit ies, including fitness classes, personal training, youth sports, and racquet sports such as tennis, pickleball, badminton, and table tennis. The program generated approximately $1.1 million in revenu es and incurred $1.8 million in program expenses. After accounting for $43.1 thousand in net non-operating revenues and $527.8 thousand in net transfers, the program closed the year with a net operating loss of $110.4 thousand. The fund ended the fiscal year with a net position of $1.2 million.
NONMAJOR PROPRIETARY FUNDS
Blackberry Farm
The City-operated nine-hole Blackberry Farm Golf Course and Pro Shop is staffed by City employees and services all ages. For FY 2024–25, the fund recorded operating reve nues of $733.6 thousand and operating expenses of $1.01 million. However, positive nonoperating reve nues totaling $48.8 thousand helped o ffset the shortfall, resulting in a modest net position decrease of $50.0 thousand. The fund ende d the fiscal year with a healthy net position of $708.8 thousand.

14 GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the General Fund’s original expenditure budget of $90.0 million was increased by $16.2 million through budget amendments, resulting in a final adopted budget of $106.2 million. Actual expenditures totaled $99.6 million, coming in $6.6 million under the final budget.
The majority of the budget adjustments were related to two key items: a $10.0 million Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP) toward the City’s CalPERS Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) and a $4.1 million transfer to the Capital Reserve to support future infrastructure investments.
CAPITAL ASSETS
At June 30, 2025, the City had $227.8 million, net of depreciation and amortization, invested in a broad range of capital assets used in governmental and business-type activities, as deta iled in Note 6 to the Basic Financial Statements. This represents a slight decrease from the rest ated FY 2024 ending balance of $228. 2 million. The prior year balance was adjusted by $5.7 million to recognize water infrastructur e improvements performed by San Jose Water Company that were contributed to the City but previously unreported.
During FY 2025, the City sold a parcel of land on Byrne Avenue for $2.5 million. Excluding the effects of this land sale and the prior period adjustment, the City’s overall capita l assets increased, reflecting its continued investment in capital projects related to street and transportation infrast ructure, stormwater management, and the maintenance and enhancement of public facilities.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
On September 29, 2020, the City of Cupertino successfully issued the 2020A Certificates of Participation (2020 COPs) to refund its 2012 COPs and achieve significant debt service savings. The 2020 COPs received strong investor interest, due to the City’s AA+ rating, its favorable name recogniti on, and advantageous market conditions. Investor demand exceeded available bonds by nearly eight times, allowing the underwriter to further reduce yields.
The refunding resulted in net present value savings of approximately $3.14 million (11.61% of refunded par) and a True Interest Cost (TIC) of 0.72%, comp ared to $2.26 million (8.36% of re funded par) when presented to Council on September 1, 2020. These savings translated into an annual reduction of approximately $494,000 in General Fund debt service costs over the next 10 years, or nearly $5 million in total.
As of June 30, 2025, the outstanding principal on the 2020 COPs was $11.92 million, with final maturity scheduled for June 1, 2030. More information can be found in Note 7 to the Basic Financial Statements. 2025 2024* 2025 2024 2025 2024

Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and accordingly are not reported as fund liabilities. All liabilities, both current and long-term, are reported in the Statement of Net Position:
Capital assets used in governmental activities were not current financial resources. Therefore, they were not reported in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet.
Internal Service Funds were used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as insurance and equipment replacement to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of the Internal Service Funds were included in the governmental activities in the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position.
Revenue reported as unavailable revenue in the governmental funds when it is not received soon enough after year-end to be considered available. The availability criteria does not apply to the Government-Wide Financial Statements and, therefore, the revenue is recognized when eligibility requirements are met and earned.
Net pension liabilities and the related deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources are not due and payable in the current period or not available for current expenditures and are not reported in the governmental fund financial statements:
Net other postemployment benefit liability and the related deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources are not due and payable in the current period or not available for current expenditures and are not reported in the governmental fund financial statements:

City of Cupertino
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
49 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City of Cupertino, California (the “City”) was incorporated on October 3, 1955, under the laws of the State of California. The City operates under a Council - City Mana ger form of government and provides services through the following departments: Administrative Services, Community Development, City Manager, Parks and Recreation, Public and Environmental Affairs, and Public Works. Fire se rvices are provided by the Santa Clara County Fire District, and the City contracts with the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Department for police services, and with Recology for garbage and recycling services.
The accompanying basic financial statements include all funds and boards and commissions that are controlled by the City Council. The basic financial statements include the City's blended component unit entity for which the City is considered to be financially account able. A blended component unit, altho ugh a legally separate entity, is in substance, part of the City's operations and so data from this unit is combined with the City.
Blended Component Unit
In evaluating how to define the City for financial re porting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The primary criteria for including a poten tial component unit within the reporting entity are the governing body’s financial accountability and a financial benefit or burden relationship and whether it is misleading to exclude. A primary government is financially accountable and shares a financial benefit or burden relationship, if it appoints a voting majority of an organization’s governing body and it is able to impose its will on the organization, or if there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary govern ment. A primary government may also be financially accountable if an organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government regardless of whether the organization has a separately elected governing board, a governing board appo inted by a higher level of government, or a jointly appointed board, and there is a potential for the organizati on to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government.
Although the following is legally separate from the City, it has been “blended” as though it is part of the City because the component unit’s governing body is substantially the same as the City’s and there is a financial benefit or burden relationship between the City and the com ponent unit; management of the City has operational responsibilities for the component unit; and/or the component unit provides services entirely, or almost entirely, to the City or otherwise exclusively, or almost exclusively, benefits the City, even though it does not provide services directly to it.
The Cupertino Public Facilities Corporation (the “Corporation”) – The Corporation was incorporated in May 1986, under the Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation La w of the State of California. The Corporation was organized as a nonprofit corporation solely for the purpose of assisting the City in the acquisition, construction, and financing of public improvements which are of public benefit to the City. The Corporation, after acquiring certain properties from the City, leases these back to the City. The lease money provides the funds for the debt service for the Certificates of Participation issued by the Corporation to acquire the properties. The Corporation does not issue separate financial statements, since it is reported separately in the City's basic financial statements.
The City had no discretely presented component units.

B. Basis of Presentation
Financial statement presentation follows the recomme ndations promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) commonly referred to as accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). GASB is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting standards.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statements Presentation
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of f unds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for by pr oviding a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained in accordance with legal and managerial requirements.
Government-Wide Statements
The City’s Government-Wide Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities. These statements present summaries of gove rnmental and business-type activities for the City accompanied by a total column. Fiduciary activities of the City are not included in these statements.
These financial statements are presented on an “ economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources, including capital assets, as well as infrastructu re assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in th e period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Certain types of transactions are reported as program revenues for the City in three categories:
Charges for services
Operating grants and contributions
Capital grants and contributions
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, pa yables and receivables. All internal balances in the Statement of Net Po sition have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. In the Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Position, internal service fund transactions have been eliminated; however, tho se transactions between governmental and business-type activities have not been eliminated. The following interfund activities have been eliminated:
Advance from/to other funds
Due to/from other funds
Transfers in/out

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statements Presentation (Continued)
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental Fund Financial Statements include a Balance Sheet and a Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances for all ma jor governmental funds and nonmajor funds aggregated. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in net position as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the Government -Wide Financial Statements. The City has presented all major funds that met the applicable criteria.
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or " current financial resources" measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the Balance Sheet. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances presents increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both “measurable” and “available” to finance expenditures of the current period.
Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both “measura ble” and “available”. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period as soon enou gh thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City, are property taxes, sales tax, intergovernmental revenues and other taxes. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
The Reconciliation of the Fund Financial Statements to the Government-Wide Financial Statements is provided to explain the differences.
The City reports the following major Governmental Funds:
General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those that are required to be accounted for in another fund.
Transportation Special Revenue Fund - The Transportation Special Revenue Fund accounts for the City's gas tax, vehicle registration fees and grant revenues and expenditures related to the ma intenance and construction of City streets. All revenue in this fund is restricted exclusively for street and road purposes including related engineering and administrative expenses. Management considers this fund qualitatively major and has elected to present this fund as such, even if mathematically it does not qualify per applicable GASB requirements.
Housing Development Special Revenue Fund - The Housing Development Special Revenue Fund accounts for the Federal Housing and Community Development Grant Program activities administered through the County.
Monies collected from developers that mitigate the impact of housing needs are also included. Monies in this fund are governed by the program's rules. Management considers this fund qualitatively major and has elected to present this fund as such, even if mathematically it does not qualify per applicable GASB requirements.
Public Facilities Corporation Debt Service Fund - The Public Facilities Corporation Debt Service Fund accounts for the payments of principal and interest on cer tificates of participation issued to provide for the financing of City Hall, Library, Wilson Park, Memorial Park, and other City facilities. Management considers this fund qualitatively major and has elected to present this fund as such, even if mathematically it does not qualify per applicable GASB requirements.

Capital Improvement Projects Capital Projects Fund - The Capital Improvement Projects Capital Projects Fund Accounts for activities related to the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position, and a Statement of Cash Flows for each major Proprietary Fund.
A separate column representing internal service funds is also presented in these statem ents. However, internal service balances and activities have been combined with the governmental activities in the Government-Wide Financial Statements. The City’s internal service funds include two individual funds which provide services directly to other City funds. These areas of service include Central Garage and Print Shop.
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the " economic resources" measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position presents increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under th e accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are rec ognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
In these funds, receivables have been recorded as revenue and provisions have been made for uncollectible amounts.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those re venues that are generated from the primary operations of the fund. All other revenues are reported as nonoperating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other expenses are reported as nonoperating expenses.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Resources Recovery Enterprise Fund - The Resources Recovery Enterprise Fund accounts for activity related to the collection, disposal, and recycling of solid w aste. A private company has been issued an exclusive franchise to perform these services.
Recreation Programs Enterprise Fund - The Recreation Programs Enterprise Fund accounts for activities of the City's community centers and park facilities.
Cupertino Sports Center Enterprise Fund - The Cupertino Sports Center Enterprise Fund accounts for activities of the City’s sports center facility.
The City also reports the following fund as proprietary fund type:
Internal Service Funds - These funds account for management in formation systems maintenance and replacement, workers' compensation, equipment main tenance and replacement, accrued leave payouts, and long-term disability, retiree health costs, coverage which are provided to other departments on a cost- reimbursement basis.

Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on long-term debt which are recognized as expenditures to th e extent the City has provided financial resources to a debt service fund for payment of these liabilities that matu re early in the following year. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds from long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
Unearned revenues are considered on both the full accrual basis and the modified accrual basis, while unavailable revenues are based on the modified accrual measure.
Property taxes, transient occupancy taxes, utility taxes, franchise taxes, interest and special assessments are susceptible to accrual. Other receipts and taxes are recogni zed as revenue when the cash is received. Sales taxes collected and held by the state at year end on behalf of the City are also recognized as revenue. Sales tax consultant payments which are contingent on revenues collected are netted against the related revenues.
Under the terms of grant agreements, the City may fund certain programs with a combination of cost reimbursement grants, categorical block grants, and general revenue. The City's policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by general revenues if necessary. Grant revenues are recognized after eligibility and billing occurs, but may be a deferred inflow if not received w ithin sixty days of year-end. Because of the cost- reimbursement and recognition nature of some grants, certain capital project funds may carry deficit fund balances until billing and receipt of grants. The City may also front the capital outlays with cash advances from other funds.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City gives or r eceives value without directly receiving or giving equal value in exchange, include property ta xes, grants, entitlements, and donations. On the accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied or asses sed. Revenue from grants is recognized as described above. Entitlement and donation revenues are recognized when cash is received.
D. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments
The City pools its cash resources, consisting of cash and investments, of all funds for investment except for restricted funds generally held by an outside fiscal ag ent. Cash amounts are reported net of outstanding warrants.
Investments are stated at fair value, except for money ma rket mutual funds which are reported at amortized cost.
Adjustments to fair value, as well as dividend and inter est income received is recorded by the City in its governmental funds in the Use of money and property caption while propr ietary funds report these items as Investment income.
The statement of cash flows requires presentation of “cash and cash equivalents”. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all proprietary fund pooled cash and investments as “cash and cash equivalents”, as such funds are available to the various funds as needed.

D. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments (Continued)
Certain disclosure requirements, if applicable, for Deposits and Investment Risks in the following areas:
Interest Rate Risk
Credit Risk
- Overall
- Custodial Credit Risk
- Concentration of Credit Risk
Foreign Currency Risk
In addition, other disclosures are specified including use of certain methods to present deposits and investments, highly sensitive investments, credit quality at year-end and other disclosures.
E. Fair Value Measurements
U.S. GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework fo r measuring fair value and establishes disclosures about fair value measurement. Investments, unless otherwise specified, recorded at fair value in the financial statements, are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Levels of inputs are as follows:
The three levels of the fair value measurement hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for id entical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the assets or liabilities through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
If the fair value of an asset or liability is measured using inputs from more than one level of the fair value hierarchy, the measurement is considered to be based on the lowest priority level inpu t that is significant to the entire measurement.
F. Receivables
Receivables include such items as taxes, intergovernmental revenues, charges for services, miscellaneous accounts receivable, and interest receivable. No allowance for doubtful accounts has b een established, as the City believes all amounts are considered to be collectible in the normal course of business.
G. Lease Receivable
The City is a lessor for leases of buildings and land and recognizes leases receivable and deferred inflows of resources in the financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance or usage of the underlying asset are not included in the measurement of the lease receivable.
City of Cupertino
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
55 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
G. Lease Receivable (Continued)
At the commencement of a lease, the lease receivable is measured at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease rece ivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflows of resources are initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflows of resources are recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term in a systematic and rational method.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease receipts.
The City uses the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) provided by the City’s financial institution for existing leases or the current rate at the time a new lease is executed. The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease plus any option periods that are likely to be exercised.
Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its lease and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
H. Inventories
Inventories consist of fuel, which are reported under historical cost.
I. Prepaid Items
Prepaid items are reported under the consumption method, which recognizes the expenditures/expense in the period associated with the service rendered or goods consumed.
J. Interfund Transactions
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/ borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances out standing between the governmental activities and business- type activities are reported in the Government-Wide Financial Statements as “internal balances”.
K. Capital Assets
Capital assets are recorded at cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated acquis ition value on the date donated. Public domain (infrastructure) capital assets consisting of roads, bridges, curbs, gutters, medians, sidewalks, drainage and lighting systems have been capitalized and depreciated. Capital assets are defined as assets with an in itial individual cost of more than $5,000 for general capital assets and $100,000 for intangible assets.
City of Cupertino
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
56 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
K. Capital Assets (Continued)
Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Buildings 15 – 25 years
Improvements 10 – 15 years
Vehicles 4 – 10 years
Street equipment 3 – 20 years
Water equipment 3 – 50 years
Office equipment 3 – 5 years
Road, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, medians and bridges 30 – 40 years Streetlights 20 years
Storm drain structure and mains 40 years
Traffic signals 20 years
Water infrastructure 20 – 125 years
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. For enterprise funds, interest incurred during the construction phase is reflected in the capitalized value of the asset constructed, net of interest earned on the invested pro ceeds over the same period. Some capital assets may be acquired using federal and state grant funds, or they may be contributed by developers or other governme nts. These contributions are accounted for as revenues at the time the capital assets are contributed.
Right-of-Use Lease Assets
Lease assets are recorded at the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities and adjusted by any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commen cement of the lease term, less any lease incentives received from the lessor at or before the commencement of the lease term along with any initial direct costs that are ancillary charges necessary to place the lease as sets into service. Lease assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease contains a purchase option that the City has determined is reasonably certain of being exercised. In this case, the lease asset is amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset.
Right-of-Use Subscription Assets
Subscription assets are recorded at the amount of the in itial measurement of the SBITA liabilities (“subscription liabilities”) and adjusted by any subscription payments to the SBITA vendor at or before the commencement of the subscription term, less any incentives re ceived from the SBITA vendor at or before the commencement of the subscription term along with subscription implementation costs. Subscription assets are amortized over the shorter of the subscription term or the useful life of the underlying information technology assets.
L. Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources
The Statement and Net Position and the Balance Sheet repor t separate sections for deferred outflows of resources, and deferred inflows of resources, when applicable.
Deferred Outflows of Resources represent a consumption of net assets that applies to future periods.
Deferred Inflows of Resources represent an acquisition of net assets that applies to future periods.

M. Interest Payable
In the government-wide financial statem ents, interest payable on long-term de bt is recognized as the liability is incurred for governmental activities and business-type activities.
N. Unearned Revenue
Unearned revenue is reported for transactions for which revenue has not yet been earned. Typical transactions recorded as unearned revenues are prepaid charges for services.
O. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences comprise vested accumulated vacation and sick leave. The City's liability for compensated absences is recorded in governmental or business-type activities as appropriate. The liability for compensated absences is determined annually. For all governmental f unds, amounts expected to be "permanently liquidated," such as what is due to be paid becau se of a realized employment action, are recorded as fund liabilities; the long- term portion is recorded in the Statement of Net Position.
The liability for compensated absences is recognized as leave is earned, based on the employee’s pay rate in effect at the financial statement date, including any applicable salary-related costs. Th e liability includes only leave attributable to services already rendered and that is more likely than not to be paid.
P. Claims and Judgement Payable
Claims and judgments payable are accrued when the liability is incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Claims and judgments payable are recorded in an internal service fund for workers' compensation and long-term disability, and other claims and judgments are recorded in the General Fund or enterprise funds, as appropriate.
Q. Lease Liabilities
The City has a policy to recognize a lease liability and a right -to-use asset (lease asset) in the financial statements with an initial, individual value of $5,000 or more with a lease term greater than one year. Variable payments based on future performance or usage of the underlying assets are not included in the measurement of the lease liability.
At the commencement of a lease, the lease liability is measured at the present value of payments expected to be made during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease liability is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments made.
Lease assets are recorded at the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities and modified by any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commen cement of the lease term, less any lease incentives received from the lessor at or before the commencement of the lease term along with any initial direct costs that are ancillary charges necessary to place the lease assets into service. Lease assets are amortized using the straight–line method over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset, unless the lease e State has determined is reasonably certain of being exercised. In this case, the lease asset is amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset.

Q. Lease Liabilities (Continued)
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease payments.
The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the City generally uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease, plus any option periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are composed of fixed payments and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certa in to exercise. The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of a lease and will remeasure any lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
Lease assets are reported as right-to-use along with other capital assets and lease liabilities are reported as long term liabilities on the statement of net position.
The City monitors changes in circum stances that would require a remeasureme nt of its lease and will remeasure any lease asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
R. Subscription Liabilities
The City recognizes subscription liabilities w ith an initial, individual value of $5,000 or more with a subscription term greater than one year in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. Variable payments based on future performance of the City, usage of the underlying information technology assets, or number of user seats are not included in the measurement of the subscription liability.
At the commencement of a subscription, the City initially measures the subscription liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the subscription te rm. Subsequently, the subscription liability is reduced by the principal portion of subscription payments made.
Key estimates and judgments related to subscription liabilities include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected subscription paym ents to present value, (2) subscription term, and (3) subscription payments.
The City uses incremental borrowing rate provided by the financial institution at July 1, 2022 for existing subscription or the current rate at the time a new subscription is executed. The subscription term includes the noncancellable period of the SBITA. Subscription payments included in the measurement of the subscription liability are composed of fixed payments.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its SBITA and will remeasure any subscription asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the subscription liability.

S. Long-Term Debt
Government-Wide Financial Statements
Long-term debt and other financial obligations are reported as liabilities in the statement of net position.
Bond premiums and discounts, as well as gains and losses on refunding, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable premium or discount.
Issuance costs are expensed in the year of issuance.
Fund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements do not present long-term debt but are shown in the Reconciliation of the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet to the Government-Wide Statement of Net Position.
T. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiducia ry net position of the plans and additions to/deductions from the plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
The following timeframes are used for pension reporting:
Valuation Date June 30, 2023
Measurement Date June 30, 2024
Measurement Period July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024
Gains and losses related to changes in total pension liab ility and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time. The first amortized am ounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be r ecognized in future pension expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over 5 years. All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactiv e, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
General Fund is typically used to liquidate pension liabilities to governmental funds.
U. Other Postemployment Benefits (“OPEB”) Plan
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s OPEB Plan and additions to/deductions from the OPEB Plans’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

Valuation Date June 30, 2025
Measurement Date June 30, 2025
Measurement Period July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025
Gains and losses related to changes in total OPEB liab ility and fiduciary net position are recognized in OPEB expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in OPEB expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and are to be recognized in future OPEB expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over 5 years. All other amounts are amortized straight-line ove r the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactiv e, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
General Fund is typically used to liquidate OPEB liabilities to governmental funds.
V. Net Position
In governmental-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, net positions are categorized as follows:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – This category consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation/amortization, reduced by th e outstanding balances of debt that ar e attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets and retention payable.
Restricted – This category represents net position that has external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors or laws or regulations of other governments and restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Unrestricted – This category represents net position of the City that do not meet the definiti on of "net investment in capital assets" or "restricted."
When expenses are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted net position first, then unrestricted net position as they are needed.
W. Fund Balances
As prescribed by GASB Statement No. 54, governmental funds report fund balance in classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts in the funds can be spent. Fund balances for governmental funds are made up of the followings:
Nonspendable Fund Balance – includes amounts that are (a) not in spendable form, or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The "not in spendable form" criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for example: prepaid items, property held for resale and long term notes receivable.
City of Cupertino
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
61 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
W. Fund Balances (Continued)
Restricted Fund Balance – includes amounts that can be spent only for the specific purposes stipulated by external resource providers, constitutionally or through enabling legislation. Restric tions may effectively be changed or lifted only with the consent of resource providers.
Committed Fund Balance – includes amounts that can only be used for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the City's highest level of decision- making authority, the City Council. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the City taking the same formal action (resolution) that imposed the constraint originally.
Assigned Fund Balance – comprises amounts intended to be used by the City for specific purposes that are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by the City Council or official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. Through the adopted budget, the City Council establishes assigned fund balance policy levels and also sets the means and priority for the City Manager to fund these levels.
Unassigned Fund Balance – is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all amounts not contained in the other classifications. Unassigned amounts are technically available for any purpose. Only the General Fund reports unassi gned positive fund balance. A governmental fund other than the General Fund may report a negative unassigned fund balan ce if expenditures incurred for a specific purpose exceed the amounts that are restricted, committed or assigned to those purposes.
In circumstances when an expenditure may be made fo r which amounts are available in multiple fund balance classifications, the fund balance in General Fund will generally be used in the order of restricted, unassigned, and then assigned reserves. In other governmental funds, the order will generally be restricted and then assigned.
X. Property Taxes
Property Tax Calendar – All property taxes are levied and collected by the County of Santa Clara. Secured taxes are levied on July 1, are due in two installments on November 1 and February 1 and become delinquent after December 10 and April 10. Unsecured taxes are levied on July 1 and become delinquent on August 31. The lien date for secured and unsecured property taxes is January 1.
The City, in fiscal year 1993-94, adopted an alternative method of property tax distribution (the "Teeter Plan").
Under this method, the City receives 100 percent of its secu red property tax levied in exchange for foregoing any interest and penalties collected on delinquent taxes. The City receives remittances as a series of advances made by the County during the year.
Y. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the basic financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported am ounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Z. Implementation of New GASB Pronouncements
GASB Statement No. 101 – In June 2022, the GASB issued Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences . The objective of this Statement is to better meet the inform ation needs of financial statement users by updating the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. That objective is achieved by aligning the recognition and measurement guidance under a unified model and by amending certain previously required disclosures. The requirements of this Statement are effec tive for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and all reporting periods thereafter. Implementation of this Statement resulted in a restatement of the beginning fund balance as of July 1, 2024, as presented in Note 15.
GASB Statement No. 102 – In December 2023, the GASB issued Statement No. 102, Certain Risk Disclosures .
The objective of this Statement is to provide users of government financial statements with information about risks related to a government’s vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations or constraints that is essential to their analyses for making decisions or assessing accountability. The requireme nts of this Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2024, and all reporting periods thereafter. The City has evaluated its exposure to financial risk stemming from concentrations and constraints. Manageme nt has determined that a concentration exists in the City’s revenue, as disclosed in Note 13.
AA. Upcoming New GANB Pronouncements
The City is currently evaluating its accounting practices to determine the potential impact on the financial statements for the following GASB Statements:
GASB Statement No. 103 – In April 2024, GASB issued Statement No. 103, Financial Reporting Model Improvements. The objective of this Statement is to improve key components of the financial reporting model to enhance its effectiveness in providing information that is essential for decision making and assessing a government’s accountability. Application of this statemen t is effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The City has not determined the effect on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 104 – In September 2024, the GASB issued Statement No. 104, Disclosure of Certain Capital Assets. The objective of this Statement is to provide user s of government financial statements with essential information about certain types of capital assets. This Statement requires certain types of capital assets to be disclosed separately in the capital assets note disclosures re quired by Statement 34. This Statement also requires additional disclosures for capital assets held for sale. Application of this statement is effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The City has not determined the effect on the financial statements.

A. Deposits
The carrying amounts of the City’s demand deposits were $51,509,352 at June 30, 2025. Bank balances at that date were $51,715,814 the total amount of wh ich was collateralized or insured with accounts held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name as discussed below.
Cash and Investments with PARS were related to the City’s Pension Trust.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City's name.
The fair value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City's cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corpora tion (“FDIC”). The City did not waive the collateral requirement for deposits insured by FDIC.
The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments of all funds, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures. In terest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances.
Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.

D. Risk Disclosures
Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.
Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term i nvestments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.

The re ntal payments which represent the pledged revenues are scheduled to be sufficient in both time and amount, when the principal and interest of the certificates are due, which was the case for the year ended June 30, 2025.
On May 9, 2012, $43,940,000 principal amount of 2012 Re financing Certificates of Participation (2012 COPs) were issued to refund the 2002 COPs, to fund a reserve fund for the 2012 COPs, and pay costs incurred in connection with issuance.
On September 29, 2020, $22,040,000 principal amount of 2020A Certificates of Participation (2020 COPs) were issued to refund the 2012 COPs and pay costs incurred in connection with issuance. The proceeds were placed into an escrow account, along with funds from the City’s 2012 COPs Reserve and on October 30, 2020, the 2012 COPS were prepaid, resulting no amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2025 for the 2012 COPs. The result of the transaction was an economic gain of $3,133,819.

Note 8 – Defined Benefit Pension Plan
A. General Information about the Pension Plan
Plan Description
The City contributes to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”), an agent multiple- employer public employee defined benefit pension plan. CalPERS acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public entities within the State of California. Benefit provisions and all other requirements are established by state statute and City ordinance. A fu ll description of the pension plan regarding number of employees covered, benefit provisions, assumptions (for funding, but not accounting purposes), and membership information are listed in the Annual Actuarial Valuati on Report. This report and Ca lPERS’ audited financial statements are publicly available reports that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website at www.calpers.ca.gov under Forms and Publications.
Benefit Provided
CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, a nnual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of service.
The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees' Retirement Law.
The Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA), Assembly Bill 340, is applicable to employees new to CalPERS and hired after December 31, 2012. The Plans' provisions and be nefits in effect at June 30, 2025, are summarized as follows:

A. General Information about the Pension Plan (Continued)
Benefit Provided (Continued)
Participant is eligible for non-industrial disability retirement if becomes disabled and has at least 5 years of credited service. There is no special age requirement. The standard non-industrial disability retirement benefit is a monthly allowance equal to 1.8 percent of final compensation, multiplied by service. Industrial disability benefits are not offered.
An employee's beneficiary may receive the basic death be nefit if the employee dies while actively employed. The employee must be actively employed with the City to be eligible for this benefit. An employee's survivor who is eligible for any other pre-retirement d eath benefit may choose to receive that death benefit instead of this basic death benefit. The basic death benefit is a lump sum in the amount of the employee's accumulated contributions, where interest is currently credited at 6 percent per y ear, plus a lump sum in the amount of one-month salary for each completed year of current service, up to a maximum of six-months salary. For purposes of this benefit, one month's salary is defined as the member's average monthl y full-time rate of compensation during the 12 months preceding death.
Upon the death of a retiree, a one-time lump sum paym ent of $500 will be made to the retiree's designated survivor(s), or to the retiree's estate.
Benefit terms provide for annual cost-o f-living adjustments to each employee’s retirement allowance. Beginning the second calendar year after the year of retirement, retirement and survivor allowances will be annually adjusted on a compound basis by 2 percent.
Employees Covered by Benefit Terms
As of the June 30, 2023, the valuation date, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms of the Plan:
Active employees 200
Transferred and terminated employees 187
Retired Employees and Beneficiaries 271
Total 658
Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contri butions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.

Change of Assumptions
There were no changes of assumptions in 2024.
Long-term Expected Rate of Return
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.

Long-term Expected Rate of Return (Continued)
In determining the long-term expected rate of return , CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations. Using historical returns of all of the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the next 20 year s using a building-block approach. The expected rate of return was then adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses of 10 Basis points. The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Asset Class1

Global Equity - Cap-weighted 30.00% 4.54%

1An expected inflation of 2.30% used for this period.
2 Figures are based on the 2021 Asset Liability Management study.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension lia bility was 6.90%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Subsequent Events
There were no subsequent events that would materially affect the results presented in this disclosure.

For the year ended June 30, 2025, the City recognized pension expense of $9,950,519. As of June 30, 2025, the City reported deferred outflows of re sources and deferred inflows of res ources related to pensions from the following sources:

Miscellaneous Plan
The amounts above are net of outflows and inflows recognized in the 2023-24 measurement period expense.
The expected average remaining service lifetime (“EARSL”) is calculated by dividing the total future service years by the total number of plan participants (active, inactive, and retired). The EARSL for the Plan for the measurement period ending June 30, 2024 is 3.6 years, which was obtained by dividing the total service years of 2,383 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of the active employees) by 65 8 (the total number of par ticipants: active, inactive, and retired). Inactive employees and retirees have remaining service lifetimes equal to 0. Total future service is based on the members’ probability of decrementing due to an event other than receiving a cash refund.
The $17,717,621 of contributions for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 reported as deferred outflows of resources related to contributions sub sequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension liability in the year ending June 30, 2026.

A. General Information about the OPEB Plan
Plan Description
Permanent employees who retire under the City's CalPERS retirement plan are, pursuant to their respective collective bargaining agreements, eligible to have their medical insurance premiums paid by the City. Retirees receive the amount necessary to pay the cost of his/her enrollment, including the en rollment of his/her family members, in a health benefit plan provided by CalPERS up to the maximum received by active employees in their respective bargaining unit.
The City contracts with CalPERS for this insured-bene fit plan established under the state Public Employees' Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA). The plan o ffers employees and retirees three CalPERS' self-funded options, setup as insurance risk pools, or offers various third-party insured health plans. The plan's medical benefits and premium rates are established by CalPERS and the insurance providers. The City contribution is established by City resolution. Retirees and active employees pay the di fference between the premium rate and the City's contribution. Premiums and City contributions are based on the plan and coverage selected by actives and retirees, with the City's potential contribution ranging from $1, 060 to $2,815 per month per employee or retiree. The responsibility for benefit payments has transferred to the in surers and the City does not guarantee the benefits in the event of default by the insurers. A comprehensive annual financial report of CalPERS, inclusive of their benefit plans, is available at www.calpers.ca.gov.

Rate of Return
For the year ended June 30, 2025, the annual money-weighted rate of return on investments, net of investment expense, was 12.61 percent. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts actually invested.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial va luation as of June 30, 2025, using the previously listed actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified. Mortality rates were based on the CalPERS mortality assumptions.
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and the plan members) an d include the types of benefits provi ded at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with long-term perspective of the calculations.
The other significant actuarial assumptions used to prepare the City's June 30, 2025 actuarial valuation include the following:
Discount Rate 6.50%
Net Investment Return 6.50%, based on the UBS investment policy Inflation 2.30% annual inflation

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability (asset) is based on a blend of (i) the long-term expected rate of return on plan assets for benefits projected to be covered by PARS investments and (ii) a yield or index rate for 20-year, tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds rated AA/Aa or higher for any benefits not expected to be covered by plan assets. For the measurement period ended June 30, 2025, the discount rate was 6.5 percent.

86 Note 10 – Liabilities Under Self-Insurance and Risk Management
General and Property Liability: The City is self-insured for the first $250,000 of general and property liability for each occurrence, and the excess (up to $10,000,000 for each occurrence and annual aggregate) is covered through the City's participation in the Pooled Liability Assurance Network Joint Powers Authority (PLAN JPA – formerly the Association of Bay Area Governments Pooled Liability Assurance Network or ABAG PLAN). The risk pool consists of 28 agencies within the San Francisco Bay Area. The stated purpose of the PLAN JPA is to provide certain levels of liability insurance coverage, claims management, risk management ser vices, and legal defense to its participating members.
PLAN JPA is governed by a Board of Directors, which co mprises officials appointed by each participating member.
Premiums paid to PLAN JPA are subject to possible refund based on the results of actuarial studies and approval by the Board of Directors. Complete financial statements for PLAN JPA may be obtained from their offices at the following address: PLAN JPA, c/o Sedgwick, 1750 Creekside Oaks Drive Suite 200, Sacramento, CA, 95833. Premiums are revised each year based on the City's claims experience and ri sk exposure. For the year ended June 30, 2025, the City paid the PLAN JPA premiums of $1,889,874.
Workers' Compensation Liability: The C ity belongs to the CSAC Excess Insura nce Authority (EIA), a joint power authority which provides excess workers' compensation liability claims coverage above the City's self-insured retention of $500,000 per occurrence. Losses above the self-insured retention are pooled with excess reinsurance purchased to a $50,000,000 statutory limit. EIA was established in 1979 for the purpose of creating a risk management pool for all California public entities. EIA is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of representatives of its member public entities. Complete financial statements for ETA may be obt ained from their offices at the following address: CSAC Excess Insurance Authority, Finance Department, EIA 75 Iron Point Circle, Suite 200, Folsom, CA 95630. For the year ended June 30, 2025, the City paid premiums of $148,291.
It is the City's practice to obtain biennial actuarial studies for the self-insured worker s' compensation liability. The claims liabilities included in the workers' compensation internal service fund is based on the results of actuarial studies and include amounts for claims incurred but not reported and loss adjustment expenses. Claim liabilities are calculated considering the effects of inflation, recent claim settl ement trends, including frequenc y and amount of payouts, and other economic and social factors. Inflation of 2.5 percent, annual rate of return of two percent, claim severity increase at 2.5 percent were assumed. In the current year, management used actuarial estimates based on a 90 percent confidence level.
Settlements have not exceeded insurance coverage in the past three years.
Changes in the balances of workers' compensation and general claims liabilities during the years ended June 30 are as follows:
2025 2024
Claims liability, beginning of year 1,671,587$ 2,222,786$ Incurred claims and changes in estimate 754,588 (268,925) Claim payments and credits (449,444) (282,274) Total claims liability, end of year 1,976,731 1,671,587 Less current portion (338,000) (322,000)

Under GASB 101, a liability must be recognized for leave that is attributable to services already rendered, accumulates and carries forward to future periods, and is more likely than not to be used or paid. This represents a shift from previous guidance, particularly in how likelihood and eligibility are assessed. The effect of the restatement is as shown above.

Changes of Assumptions: There were no assumption changes in 2023 or 2024. Effective with the June 30, 2021, valuation date (June 30, 2022, measurement date), the accounting discount rate was reduced from 7.15% to 6.90%. In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. In addition, demographic assumptions and the price inflation assumption were changed in accordance with the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions. The accounting discount rate was 7.15% for measurement dates June 30, 2017, through June 30, 2021, and 7.65% for measurement dates June 30, 2015, through June 30, 2016.

Compensated Absences and Long-Term Disability - Accounts for accrued leave payouts and the City's long term disability insurance program.
Retiree Medical - Accounts for funds set-aside for other post-employment retirement benefits.
Equipment Revolving - Accounts for the activities related to the maintenance and replacement of the City's vehicle fleet and other equipment.
INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
These funds account for goods or services provided to other departments of the City where the intent of the City is that the costs of these goods or services are to be recovered through interdepartmental charges at the time that the goods are delivered or the services rendered to those departments.
The concept of major funds does not extend to internal service funds because they do not do business with outside parties. For the Statement of Activities, the net revenues or expenses of each internal service fund are eliminated by netting them against the operations of the City departments that generated them. The remaining balance sheet items are consolidated with these same funds in the Statement of Net Position. However, internal service funds are still presented separately in the Fund financial statements.
Information Technology - Accounts for the activities related to the maintenance and replacement of the City's technology infrastructure.
Workers’ Compensation - This fund is used to account for all expenses relating to workers’ compensation (i.e., injury claims, insurance premiums, etc.). The costs are recovered through an annual “user fee” which is charged to all departments/funds that have employees.

Not all overlapping rates apply to all city property owners.
³City's Share of 1% Levy is based on the City's share of the general fund tax rate area with the largest net taxable value within the city. ERAF general fund tax shifts may not be included in tax ratio figures. ⁴Redevelopment Rate is based on the largest RDA tax rate area and only includes rate(s) from indebtedness adopted prior to 1989 per California State statute. RDA direct and overlapping rates are applied only to the incremental property values. The approval of ABX1 26 eliminated Redevelopment from the State of California for the fiscal year 2012/13 and years thereafter. ⁵Total Direct Rate is the weighted average of all individual direct rates applied to by the government preparing the statistical section information and excludes revenues derived from aircraft. Beginning in 2013/14 the Total Direct Rate no longer includes revenue generated from the former redevelopment tax rate areas. Challenges to recognized enforceable obligations are assumed to have been resolved during 2012/13. For the purposes of this report, residual revenue is assumed to be distributed to the City in the same proportions as general fund revenue.

Direct and Overlapping Property Tax Rates
(Rate per $100 of taxable value)
Agency
¹In 1978, California voters passed Proposition 13 which set the property tax rate at a 1.00% fixed amount. This 1.00% is shared by all taxing agencies for which the subject property resides within. In addition to the 1.00% fixed amount, property owners are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of any voter approved bonds. 153

Note: The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross assessed valuation. However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1981-82 fiscal year, each parcel is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The computations shown above reflect a conversion of assessed valuation data for each fiscal year from the current full valuation perspective to the 25% level that was in effect at the time that the legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local governments located within the state.

Community Economic Profile
Cupertino, with a population of 57,237 and City limits stretching across 13-square miles, is considered one of the most prestigious cities to live and work in the Bay Area.
Economic health is an essential component to maintaining a balanced city, which provides high-level opportunities and services that create and help sustain a sense of community and quality of life. Public and private interests must be mutual so that success as a partnership is a direct reflection of success as a community. The cornerstone of this partnership is a cooperative and responsive government that fosters residential and business prosperity and strengthens working relationships among all sectors of the community.

Cupertino is world-renowned as the home to high-tech giants, such as Apple, Inc. and Amazon, and as a community with stellar public schools.

The City’s proactive economic development efforts and a high-touch approach has resulted in an innovative environment for start-ups and growing companies to thrive, including Moxo, DURECT Corporation, Claspp, Mirapath, Aemetis Inc, Mist Systems, and many more. The City strives to retain our companies and aDract new ones through active outreach and a responsive, streamlined, and customer-oriented entitlement process.
Cupertino is excited to have a number of mixed-use development projects offering diverse retail and dining options, as well as providing additional housing opportunities to meet the needs of the growing community.
There are also quite a few development projects already entitled including: Westport Cupertino, Marina Plaza, Alan Row, and Canyon Crossing. Further, City Council recently approved the 283,000 square foot mixed Office/Commercial Apple development at 19191 Vallco Parkway.
