Message from the Chair, Board of Directors CIMA Canada

In 2017, the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants was formed following the vote by AICPA and CIMA members in 2016. The Association’s strategy is to advance both management and public accounting globally by enhancing the reputation, employability and quality of designation holders. A recent survey by recruiter Robert Half found that CGMA was the second most popular designation with employers in both Canada and the USA. In April of 2017, we were pleased to welcome Andrew Harding, the CEO of the Management Accounting division of the Association, and Nate Fredrickson, Vice President of Management Accounting for the Americas, to Canada, who joined members to discuss the objectives and achievements of the Association.

We were proud that David Stanford, CIMA President, chose Canada for his first international visit, in June 2017. We had a chance to hear the latest on CIMA's strategic initiatives from the president and hosted a member recognition event for the Tony Thompson prize winners and for members that reached 10+ years anniversary as members of CIMA. The 2017 CIMA Mayor's Trophy was unfortunately cancelled due to bad weather. But the team executed the other community engagement efforts very successfully, through the promotional campaigns for CIMA Mayor’s Trophy and its sister events; CIMA Mayor’s School Cricket Tournament and CIMA Cricket Across The Pond (CAP) program. The mentoring group continues to support existing members and new immigrants to Canada by providing mentoring and networking opportunities. In 2017, 16 new mentees registered with the CIMA mentoring program and since its inception, the program has helped over 255 mentees. The CPD committee organised webinars and physical events across Canada that were well attended. In Oct 2017 CIMA President, David Stanford, attended a series of very successful luncheons and conferences that were held in Ottawa, Calgary and Toronto and had an opportunity to meet members across the country. 2018 activities are well underway. We have already hosted a couple of CPD and Mentoring events. Currently planning for the 2018 CIMA Mayor’s Trophy and the Conference on ‘The Future of Work’. Both events are only possible with the support of our sponsors and I like to thank all organizations that have partnered with CIMA Canada and generously provided assistance for these initiatives. In addition, I am happy to inform you that our local team have been recognised beyond Canada. Amal Ratnayake was elected as the Vice president of CIMA and Martin Saxton was chosen as the CIMA council representative for The Americas. I am also honoured to be nominated as a CIMA representative for the AICPA’s National Commission for Diversity and Inclusion Committee. Finally, I like to thank everyone involved for their contributions to the branch and I look forward to another successful year, as we continue to work together in supporting our members and CIMA Canada. Thank you,

Helen Berhane Chair, Board of Directors CIMA Canada

Message from the President of CIMA

Much is said today about digital disruption in today’s rapidly changing technological landscape. A business environment where risks are changing – becoming more complex, more interconnected and where they can rapidly have global impact from small localised events. It is also an environment where cyber-attacks have the potential to disrupt operations and business, and cause reputational damage. Against this backdrop I was pleased to be invited to speak at three key events in Canada in October 2017 – on subjects very relevant to our members working in business today. In Ottawa, I spoke about integrated thinking and how certain companies working effectively with big data can steal a competitive edge on their rivals. At an event in Calgary I talked about the increased importance of risk management, and in Toronto I spoke about disruption and the skillsets necessary to provide strategic

leadership in the face of new business threats. I was also in Canada earlier in 2017, in June, for a series of meetings with members and to attend the CIMA Mayor’s Trophy. Representing a partnership between two great bodies, CIMA and the City of Toronto, the annual cricket tournament goes back more than ten years and raises money for the Cricket Across the Pond programme. What a great example of how, as well as contributing to local economies through their skills as management accountants, CIMA members in Canada regularly do community work. These are members who on a daily basis go beyond what is required or expected of them and I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to them. At the start of my year as CIMA President I said it was my intention to engage with as many members and students as possible during my term of office – to be present at key events and also listen to the views of members and students. I have attended many new member celebrations across the UK and globally, and where possible I have been at face-to-face membership assessment sessions. As part of our growing influence, I have had the opportunity to advocate widely for our profession, our members and our organisation – by speaking to regulators, government representatives and business leaders. But it always comes back to our members and students – the lifeblood of CIMA. It has been a great pleasure to meet you during the year. Finally, I continue to remain convinced that our roles as management accountants matter – in business, in local communities and across the world. I also remain committed to CIMA. We have evolved and developed over the years since our formation in 1919, the Royal Charter in 1975, and the formation of our Association with the American Institute of CPAs in 2017. Over the past 100 years, we have led the profession through much change. At the same time our core values of ethics, integrity and professionalism have underpinned all that we have done and will continue to do. As we look to the future, our positions as trusted advisors at the heart of business decision-making will be more important than ever before.

John Couto, representing the CIMA Alberta chapter, gave us an update on activities in that Province, including several CPD events and a Members’ party.

Two former Presidents of CIMA Canada, Ivan Simon-Rasiah (1996) and Munir Talib (1997-1998), are regular attendees of events and their continued support is greatly valued.

The AMM is a great opportunity for Members to catch up on news from old friends. It’s always a pleasure to see so many Fellows and Associates deep in conversation.

45 Coalport Dr. Toronto, Ontario MIN 4B5 Bus/Fax 416-690-7717 Res: 416-694-4633 Independent Auditor’s Report To the Members of The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, Canada Inc. I have audited the accompanying financial statements of The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, Canada Inc. (“the Association”), which comprise the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2017, and the statements of operations and changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the 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 fair presentation of the financial statement 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 entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion. Opinion In my opinion, the financial statement present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Association as at December 31, 2017 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations.

The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, Canada Inc. Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended December 31, 2017 Nature of Operations

The Chartered Institute of Management Accounts, Canada Inc. (“CIMA Canada) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in Canada to advance the interests of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, a body incorporated by Royal Charter in the UK, (“CIMA”) in Canada. CIMA Canada’s objectives are to promote and create awareness of the CIMA and CGMA designations and to encourage, disseminate and promote knowledge, education and training and the exchange of information and ideas in respect of matters relating to or connected with the science of Management Accountancy. The CGMA designation is the property of the Association of International Certified Public Accountants (the “Association”). The Association was created on 1 January 2017 by CIMA and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”). The Association supports and delivers value to members of CIMA and AICPA, and members of CIMA and AICPA are also members of the Association. CIMA Canada is a non-profit organization and is not subject to income tax under the Income Tax Act.

1. Significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation The financial statements of the Association have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations and reflect the following significant accounting policies: Revenue recognition CIMA Canada receives an annual grant from CIMA. Grants are recognized in income when received. Sponsorships are raised for specific events and are recognized if the amount to be collected can be reasonably estimated and the collection is reasonably assured. These are recognized as revenue during the period in which the corresponding expense is incurred. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liability at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Financial Instruments CIMA Canada’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable. Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value when the Association becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Subsequently, all financial instruments including cash are measured at amortized cost.ri Contributed services Volunteers contribute a significant amount of time to CIMA Canada as members of the board of directors, committee members and chairs, spokespersons, and representatives of CIMA Canada in a wide variety of roles and responsibilities. Contributed services from volunteers are not recognized in the financial statements due to the difficulty of determining their fair value.

2. Deferred revenue Deferred revenue consists of funds received in the current year for the JumpStart program which are to be expended in the next fiscal year. At the end of the previous fiscal year, deferred revenue consisted of funds received in the year to sponsor the 2018 JumpStart program.

The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, Canada Inc. Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended December 31, 2017

3. Annual cricket event CIMA Canada received contributed advertising, food and beverages valued at approximately $110,000 which have not been recorded in these financial statements. The contributed advertising included CIMA signage on Toronto’s major transit locations, live television and radio interviews, as well as advertising space on two of Canada’s leading newspapers.

4. Economic dependence CIMA Canada derives a substantial portion of its income from an annual grant from CIMA.

5. Financial Instruments The Association is exposed to and manages various financial risks resulting from operations and does not enter into financial instrument agreements including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. The Association’s main financial risk exposures and its financial risk management policies are as follows: Credit risk The Association is exposed to credit risk resulting from the possibilities that parties may default on their financial obligations. The Association’s maximum exposure to credit risk represents the sum of the carrying value of its cash and accounts receivable. The Association’s cash is deposited with a Canadian chartered bank and, as a result, management believes the risk of loss of this item to be remote. Accounts receivable balances are managed and analyzed on an ongoing basis and accordingly, exposure to bad debts is not considered significant. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Association cannot meet a demand for cash or fund it obligations as they become due. The Association meets its liquidity requirements by establishing budgets and cash estimates to ensure it has funds necessary to fulfill its obligations. Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk is comprised of currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. i) Currency risk Currency risk refers to the risk that the fair value of instruments or future cash flows associated with the instruments will fluctuate relative to the Canadian dollar due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Association’s financial instruments are all denominated in Canadian dollars and it transacts primarily in Canadian dollars. As a result. Management does not believe it is exposed to significant currency risk. ii) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the fair value of financial instruments or future cash flows associated with the financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Association is not exposed to significate interest rate risk. iii) Other price risk Other price risk refers to the risk that the fair value of financial instruments or associated future cash flows will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from currency risk or interest rate risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all similar instruments traded in the market. The Association is not exposed to other price risk.
