Prepared by the Office of the Treasurer for the Investment Advisory Committee Liquidity of the Portfolio
❖ A yield curve is typically defined as the difference between the 3-month and 10-year treasury rate. However, the City uses the 1-year and 5-year yield curve, as the City is allowed to purchase investments for up to five years per the City's investment policy. The shape of the 1-year and 5-year yield curve continues to show a decline, which means the 1-year yield is higher than the 5-year. As of October 31, 2024, the 1-year, 3 -year and 5 -year treasury yield s were 4.27%, 4.12% and 4.15%, respectively.
❖ The City is in compliance with California Government Code Section 53646 which requires the local agency to report on its ability to meet pooled expenditure requirements for the next six (6) months. Over the next 6 months, cash, cash equivalents (LAIF , CAMP, Sweep Money Market ) and projected inflows exceed projected cash outflows by $173.2M.

Adjusted by Premiums/Discounts represents the premium or discount cost involved to secure higher or lower yield securties. The cost of the premium or discount is amoritized down or up respectively to par over the life of the bond until reaching maturity.
By amortizing, the amount of taxable interest is reduced for each year the city owns the bond. This is because the amortized premium or discounts offsets the ordinary income of the coupon payment. *Accrued Interest: Interest that has accumulated between the most recent payment and the sale of a bond or other fixed-income security. At the time of sale, the buyer pays the seller the bond's price plus "accrued interest," calculated by multiplying the coupon rate by the fraction of the coupon period that has elapsed since the last payment. (If a bondholder receives $40 in coupon payments per bond semiannually and sells the bond one-quarter of the way into the coupon period, the buyer pays the seller $10 as the latter's proportion of interest earned.)

14 Notes to Investment Report
1. REPORTING ENTITY
City of Torrance was established May 31, 1921 and adopted a city charter form of government on January 7, 1947.
Under City Charter section 630 CITY TREASURER. It shall be the duty of the City Treasurer to receive and safely keep all moneys which shall come into his/her hands as City Treasurer. He/S he shall comply with
all provisions of law governing the deposit and securing of public funds. He/She shall also comply with all the provisions of the general laws of the State governing the handling of such trust funds as may come into his/her possession. He/She shall pay out moneys only on warrants s igned by persons designated by law, or ordinance, as the proper persons to sign warrants and as to trust funds which may come into his/her possession or control by virtue of some law, ordinance or resolution, by warrant or other order, in accordance with the provisions of such law, ordina nce or resolution. He/She shall at regular intervals, at least once each month, submit to the Director of Finance a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements and fund balances, a copy of which report he/she shall file with the City Council.
The City Treasurer may appoint a deputy, or depu
ties, from an eligible list to be prepared in accordance with the proceedings prescribed in the civil service system of the City, such deputy or deputies to receive such compensation as may be provided by the City Council. (Ratified Gen. Mun. Elec. 4/10/56, Amend. No. 8; Approved by State Le gislature Concurrent Res. No. 3 on 1/9/57).
2. BASIS FOR REPORTING
This Investment Report has been prepared in accordance with the State of California Government Code §53600 and City of Torrance Investment Policy as noted in the City Charter. The City of Torrance Investment Policy is approved and adopted annually by City Council. The Investment Policy is annually submitted by the City Trea surer to the Investment Advisory Committee for review before being forwarded to the City Council. The investment Advisory Committee is made up of City Treasurer, City Manager, City Attorney, Finance Director, and Deputy City Treasurer.
3. ASSUMPTIONS
The Investment Report represents a specific snapshot in time and is compared to other market performers during that same period which includes but is not limited to: Constant Maturing Treasury 2‐ year term rates, Local Agency Investment Fund (State of California), and prior year performance. All investment activity calculations are results from Sy mPro portfolio management software v7.3.6.
Adjusted by Premiums/Discounts represent the premium/discount cost involved to secure higher or lower yield securities. The cost of the premium or discount is amortized down or up to par over the life of the bond until reaching maturity. By amortizing, the amount of taxable interest is reduced for each year the ci
ty owns the bond. This is because the amortized premium or discount offsets the ordinary income of the coupon payment.
There is no capital loss or gain to report if bonds are kept to maturity.
