Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinions

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Hudson Valley Community College (the College), a component unit of Rensselaer County, New York, and its discretely presented component units, as of and for the years ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements which collectively comprise the College’s basic financial statements as listed in the accompanying table of contents.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of Hudson Valley Community College and its discretely presented component units as of August 31, 2025 and 2024, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows thereof for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the College 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. The financial statements of the Hudson Valley Community College Foundation and Faculty Student Association were not audited in accordance with Government Auditing Standards.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the College’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement 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 whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and 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 generally accepted auditing standards 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 override 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 generally accepted auditing standards 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 College’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

An independent member of UHY International

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 College’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 control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 10 and other required supplementary information on pages 42 through 47 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part 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 limited procedures to the required supplementary 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 comparing the information for consistency 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 not 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 College’s basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards, as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the 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 information 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 schedule of expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the Other Information section on pages 48 to 51 but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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 basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. 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.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated May 29, 2026, on our consideration the College’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the College’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering College’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Albany, New York May 29, 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Introduction

The following management discussion and analysis (MD&A) provides a comprehensive overview of Hudson Valley Community College’s (the College) financial position as of August 31, 2025 and 2024, and the changes in its financial position for the years then ended. Management has prepared this MD&A which should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related footnotes of the College which directly follow the MD&A.

For financial reporting purposes the College consists of the College and its component units, the Capital District Educational Opportunity Center (EOC), the Faculty Student Association (FSA) of Hudson Valley Community College, and the Hudson Valley Community College Foundation (the Foundation). For financial reporting purposes the EOC is considered a part of the College’s primary institution. Readers should refer to the individual financial statements of the other component units for further information on them.

The financial statements of the College have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The College complies with GASB pronouncements, which establish accounting and financial reporting standards for public colleges and universities. The objective of these standards is to enhance the understandability and usefulness of the external financial reports issued by public colleges and universities.

Overview of Financial Statements

The financial statement presentation consists of a Statement of Net Position; a Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position; a Statement of Cash Flows, and accompanying notes. These statements provide information on the financial position, the financial activities and changes in financial position of the College during the year. A summary of these statements follows:

The Statements of Net Position present information on all of the College’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the net amount reported as net position.

Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the College is improving.

The Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position present the changes in financial position for the fiscal years. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses reported in this statement include items that will result in cash received or disbursed in future fiscal periods (e.g., the receipt of amounts due from students and others for services rendered, or the payment for accrued compensated absences).

The Statements of Cash Flows provides information on the major sources and uses of cash during the years. The cash flow statement portrays net cash provided by or used for operating, investing, capital, and noncapital financing activities.

Statement of Net Position

The following Condensed Schedule of Assets, Deferred Outflows of Resources, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position depict changes in the key components of financial position for 2025 and 2024. During the year ended August 31, 2025, total assets decreased $0.5 million and total liabilities decreased $4.4 million.

Assets

Current assets include cash, temporary investments, amounts owed to the College which are expected to be received within the ensuing year, and advance payments made by the College for goods and/or services which will be consumed during the following year. The majority of current assets are cash and cash equivalents.

Cash The College maintains three accounts, an operating account, a payroll account, and a controlled disbursement account at M & T Bank, the College’s primary financial institution.

Investments

During the year, excess college funds were invested in money market accounts and US Treasury bills. The Board of Trustees designates and approves all eligible depositories of College funds.

In fiscal years ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, the College’s investments and surplus funds generated approximately $2,172,000 and $2,350,000 in interest income, respectively.

The increase in interest income is attributable to an increase in overall interest rates.

Total cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments available as of August 31, 2025 and 2024 were approximately $54,460,000 and $59,500,000 respectively.

Noncurrent assets also include funds obtained through bonding of our capital projects which are being held by Rensselaer County and are expected to be expended after August 31, 2025.

Capital Assets

Capital Assets are the largest contributor to noncurrent assets, which include tangible capital assets, right-to-use lease assets, and subscription-based information technology arrangement (SBITA) assets, and are presented at their value net of depreciation and amortization. The overall value of net capital assets decreased by 1% over the year compared to the prior year. This change is the net impact of a $10.8 million decrease due to depreciation and amortization, partially offset by capital asset purchases.

This information is presented in more detail in Note 5 of the Financial Statements.

Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources

The College recognized deferred outflows of resources of $10.7 million and deferred inflows of resources of $13.1 million related to the New York State Teacher’s Retirement System (TRS) and New York State and Local Employees’ Retirement System (ERS) plans and Other Postemployment Benefit (OPEB) plans.

County/local aid – County aid was $29.0 million in 2024 and $32.3 million in 2025. The increase is related to an increase of chargebacks

Outgoing

The largest sources of outgoing funds from the college are related to employees, vendors and capital projects.

Payments to employees – primarily composed of salary payments, this amount increased by

$0.3 million dollars from 2024 to 2025.

Payments to suppliers and vendors – increased by $0.2 million from 2024 to 2025. Primarily due to increased spending in grant related expenditures.

Capital financing activities – $7.6 million was used in 2025 while in 2024 $7.1 million was used.

Economic Factors That Will Affect the Future

The College has experienced encouraging enrollment growth following the impacts of COVID-19. Since Fall 2021, headcount has increased from 8,812 to 10,490, exceeding pre-pandemic levels from Fall 2019. This upward trend reflects the strength of the College’s programs and its ability to respond to changing student needs. At the same time, broader macroeconomic conditions continue to shape higher education enrollment patterns and the College’s financial outlook. A strong labor market could lead prospective students to enter or remain in the workforce rather than pursue postsecondary education.

Additionally, persistent inflation—including rising costs for housing, food, transportation, and other essentials—has reduced discretionary income available for education, particularly among the populations most likely to attend community colleges. However, SUNY and New York State continue to make investments to provide pathways to an affordable education.

Economic factors do place pressure on institutional expenses. Salary and benefits, along with an increase cost for goods and services—including growing demand for student support services such as mental health resources—contribute to increases in College operating costs. Declining birth rates may reduce the number of high school graduates over time, while New York State’s projected population decline may shrink the College’s traditional recruitment base. Despite these headwinds, the College is well positioned relative to its peers. The College offers a diverse portfolio of programs, particularly in high-demand STEM and skilled trades fields such as automotive technology, HVAC, and electrical programs. These areas align closely with regional workforce needs and continue to offer strong career outcomes, positioning the College to attract students seeking practical, career-oriented education and workforce advancement.

Technological Advancements

Online Education: The rise of online and hybrid learning continues to reshape higher education. The College is well positioned in this evolving landscape. The College offers a broad portfolio of online degree and certificate programs across disciplines such as business, criminal justice, health sciences, information technology, education, and liberal arts. Many of these programs can be completed fully online with appropriate planning, providing students the ability to learn “anytime, anywhere” while maintaining the same instructional quality as in-person courses. This positions the College competitively as demand for remote and flexible learning continues to grow across the community college sector.

Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI): AI and other technological innovations are transforming the higher education landscape. The College continues to explore these emerging technologies to remain competitive and responsive to evolving student expectations. The thoughtful adoption of AI and related technologies can support innovation in program delivery, improve institutional efficiency, and help position the College as a forward-looking institution that attracts both traditional and non-traditional students.
