INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORTBoard of Directors of
Meeting Professionals International and Affiliate
Dallas, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Meeting Professionals
International and Affiliate (the Organization), which comprise the consolidated statements offinancial position as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements ofactivities and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to consolidated
financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated
financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the UnitedStates of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control
relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally acceptedin the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit toobtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free frommaterial misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts anddisclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on theauditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of theconsolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fairpresentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures thatare appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on theeffectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and thereasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide abasis for our audit opinion.

MEETING PROFESSIONALS INTERNATIONAL AND AFFILIATENOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of Meeting
Professionals International (MPI) and its affiliated foundation, Meeting Professionals
International Foundation (the Foundation), collectively, (the Organization).
The
Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation organized to provide resources for identifying,
researching and developing the process and function of meeting planning andmanagement. The Foundation was incorporated in the State of Illinois in 1984 and is
exempt from federal and state income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code. The Foundation’s office is located in Dallas, Texas. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Organization and History
MPI is a not-for-profit corporation organized to promote, develop and advance thetraining of and exchange of information between persons engaged in the profession of
meeting planning. MPI was incorporated in the state of Illinois in 1972. Theinternational office of MPI is located in Dallas, Texas, which serves numerous chapter
offices located throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, Mexico, and SouthAmerica. The mission statement of MPI is as follows:“Meeting Professionals International (MPI) helps its members thrive by providing
human connections to knowledge and ideas, relationships, and marketplaces.”
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Organization are prepared inaccordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) guidance on preparing
financial statements of not-for-profit organizations.
FASB guidance establishes
standards for external financial reporting and requires that resources be classified foraccounting and reporting purposes into three net asset categories according toexternally (donor) imposed restrictions. The net assets of the Organization are reported
in each of the following three classes: (a) unrestricted net assets, (b) temporarily
restricted net assets, and (c) permanently restricted net assets. Net assets of the two
restricted classes are created only by donor-imposed restrictions on their use. All othernet assets, including board-designated, are legally unrestricted, and are reported as partof the unrestricted class.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as of andfor the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from such estimates.

7

MEETING PROFESSIONALS INTERNATIONAL AND AFFILIATENOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
Cash Equivalents
The Organization considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a remaining
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Organization maintains cash balances and certificates of deposit which, at times,
may exceed federally insured limits. The Organization has not experienced any losses
in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on cash.
Fair Value Measurements
The FASB has issued guidance on fair value measurements. The guidance defines fairvalue, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about
fair value measures required under other accounting pronouncements, but does notchange existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value.
The guidance emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entityspecific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determinedbased on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability.
As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements,
FASB established a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant
assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting
entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) andthe reporting entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions(unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may
include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs
that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest
rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted
intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are
typically based on an entity's own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market
activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on
inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy
within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level inputthat is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in
its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

8

MEETING PROFESSIONALS INTERNATIONAL AND AFFILIATENOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
Contributions
Contributions received and unconditional promises to give are measured at their fairvalues and are reported as an increase in net assets. The Organization reports gifts ofcash and other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations
that limit the use of the donated assets, or if they are designated as support for future
periods. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction
ends or purpose restriction is accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets arereclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the consolidated statement ofactivities as net assets released from restrictions. Donor-restricted contributions whose
restrictions are met in the same reporting period are reported as unrestricted support.
Subsequent Events
The FASB has issued guidance establishing general standards of accounting for thedisclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial
statements are issued. Subsequent events have been evaluated throughOctober 2, 2013, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
Accounts and Pledges Receivable
Accounts and pledges receivable are stated at the amount management expects tocollect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible
amounts through a provision for bad debt expense and an adjustment to a valuation
allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, on a specific identification basis, or market andconsists of educational publications, planning tools and promotional merchandise.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line
method over their estimated useful lives, generally three to five years. Management
capitalizes all assets with an original cost greater than $1,000.
Membership Dues
Membership dues are recognized ratably at the beginning of each member’s anniversarydate. Anniversary dates are generally spread throughout the calendar year. The
Organization bills membership renewals two months prior to the actual renewal date.
These advance billings are reflected as deferred revenue-membership dues until therenewal date.

9MEETING PROFESSIONALS INTERNATIONAL AND AFFILIATENOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED
Contributed Services
A significant number of sponsors have made substantial contributions of their time todevelop the Organization’s annual membership activities, principally in membershipdevelopment, educational and fund-raising programs. The Organization also receives
non-monetary donations of services from various contributors. These contributed
services do not create or enhance non-financial assets of the Organization, nor do theyrequire specialized skills. The value of this contributed time and services is not reflectedin the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for fiscal 2013 and 2012were $110,842 and $111,705, respectively.
Federal Income Taxes
MPI is a not-for-profit organization exempt from federal income taxes under Section
501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, MPI is subject to income tax onunrelated business income under Section 513(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Income
tax expense for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $32,275 and $670,
respectively, and are included as management and administrative expenses in theaccompanying consolidated statements of activities.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued guidance in accounting for
uncertainties in income taxes which requires that the Organization recognize in its
financial statements the financial effects of a tax position, if that position is more likely
than not of being sustained upon examination, including resolution of any appeals or
litigation processes, based upon the technical merits of the tax position. The
requirements also provide guidance on measurement, classification, interest andpenalties and disclosure.
Tax positions taken related to the Organization’s tax exempt status, unrelated businessactivities taxable income and deductibility of expenses and other miscellaneous tax
positions have been reviewed, and management is of the opinion that material positions
taken by the Organization would more likely than not be sustained by examination.
Accordingly, the Organization has not recorded an income tax liability for uncertain tax
benefits. As of June 30, 2013, the Organization’s tax years 2010 and thereafter remainsubject to examination.

58,074The Organization determines the fair value of investments through application of FASB
guidance on fair value measurements. The organization’s investments are comprised ofdebt and equity instruments and are reflected on the statement of financial position at theirestimated fair values. The difference, if any, between the cost basis and the fair value ofeach investment represents unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Changes in unrealized
appreciation or depreciation during a period are reflected as part of investment income inthe consolidated statements of activities.
Certificates of deposit are carried at historical cost, adjusted for any accrued interest earned,
and therefore, are not reported at fair market value and are not required to be reported
under FASB guidance.
Information related to the investments measured at fair value at June 30, 2013 and 2012 isas follows:

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to measure and disclose
fair value of investments:
Marketable equity securities reported as level 1 are determined by reference to quoted
market prices for investments listed on an exchange or over-the-counter market.
Fair value of marketable fixed income securities reported as level 2 consists of thefollowing:
Corporate Bonds
The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using recently executed transactions,market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads or credit default swap
spreads. The spread data used are for the same maturity as the bond. If the spread
data does not reference the issuer, then data that references a comparable issuer isused. When observable price quotations are not available, fair value is determinedbased on cash flow models with yield curves, bond, or single-name credit default
swap spreads and recovery rates based on collateral values as key inputs.
Municipal Bonds
The fair value of sovereign government bonds is generally based on quoted prices in
active markets. When quoted prices are not available, fair value is determined basedon a valuation model that uses inputs that include interest-rate yield curves, crosscurrency-basis index spreads, and country credit spreads similar to the bond in termsof issuer, maturity and seniority.

MEETING PROFESSIONALS INTERNATIONAL AND AFFILIATENOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTSNOTE 10. RESTATEMENT
Certain errors in amounts previously reported for unrestricted net assets, temporarily
restricted net assets and net assets released from restrictions as of and for the years ended
June 30, 2012 and 2011 were discovered by the Organization in the current year.
Accordingly, amounts reported for unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets
and net assets released from restrictions in the 2012 consolidated financial statements havebeen restated to correct the error.
The Organization determined that, primarily as a result of misclassification of expenses,
temporarily restricted net assets were overstated and unrestricted net assets understated byoffsetting amounts. As a result, temporarily restricted net assets have been decreased (andunrestricted net assets increased) by $ 3,995,353 and $ 3,379,915 , respectively, as ofJune 30, 2012 and 2011; and net assets released from restrictions has been increased by$615,438 for the year ended June 30, 2012.
