hospital for five years, received the prestigious William M. Usdane National Award for her tireless dedication and compassion for the wounded warriors. Yolanda is profiled in this year’s annual report. Also featured in this report is Dylan Prettyman, one of our enthusiastic custodians at Camp Pendleton’s Area 53 mess hall, home to the 1st Marine Regiment and 1st Battalion. Our 260 disabled and non-disabled managers and employees provide services at five mess halls that serve over 8,000 Marines daily at the second largest Marine Base in the country.

Since our inception, Job Options has provided competitive integrated employment for our disabled employees who work alongside our non-disabled workforce and receive the same wage for the same tasks as the non-disabled. The salaries are often 30 to 40% higher than the minimum wage and are governed by the Service Contract Act to which all federal contractors are subject.

Our disabled employees are placed in positions working alongside their coworkers everyday. They realize that everyone has their own strengths and weakness and benefit from these interactions. Now in our 28th year, all of our JOI employees take tremendous pride in their performance and knowing the value of their work.

One hundred disabled Job Options workers join with our non-disabled housekeepers in the performance of their duties at San Diego’s Balboa Naval Hospital. This year Yolanda Richardson, who has worked at the

n 2014, we continued our efforts to restructure our operations to more efficiently operate in an ongoing federal government environment that consists of budget cuts and cost reductions. The end result is that revenues grew only marginally to $49.1 million in Fiscal 13/14 in which we managed to earn $283K of net contribution.

over the trial ruled in our favor on five major pretrial motions brought forth by HCA.

Divisional Accomplishments A major accomplishment for our Commissary Division, the second largest in terms of revenue at $9.1 million annually, is that we have implemented a new “gauntlet� process for the nightly sorting and segregating of product to be stocked on the shelves. This process reduces our annual cost by an estimated $320K annually, which is necessary because of ongoing contractual reductions as the new five-year contracts are received at each of the six commissaries that we operate.

Cost Reduction Efforts The restructuring and cost-reduction efforts were primarily centered in our laundry and commissary businesses. With regard to our laundry business, we discontinued services to large commercial hospitals, as we were unable to negotiate prices commensurate with the linen loss and the cost of processing the excessive amount of different types of linen that these hospitals needed. The result of discontinuing commercial hospital contracts reduced our laundry business by 30% going forward, but it will operate much more within the confines of the revenue generated. The trial in our lawsuit against Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) for excessive linen losses is scheduled to begin in August 2015. During the past year, the judge who will preside

Our largest division, Hospital Environmental Services (HES), generated revenues of $16.4 million in Fiscal 13/14. The highlight of the year was providing the necessary housekeeping and cleaning services to transition into a new, larger hospital at Fort Benning, Georgia. The new hospital increases the size of this contract from $3.3 million to about $5.5 million annually. The experiences gained from this transition period will come in handy over the next two years as we move into another new and larger hospital

in Fort Irwin, California. With the growth from these new hospitals, this division is positioned to be our first division generating $20 million in revenue annually, and we continue to aggressively pursue new business opportunities in this market.

Finally, we continue to emphasize safety in our workplace. Our workers’ compensation expense is one of our largest expenses and we are largely self-insured as we absorb the full cost of all workers’ compensation injuries up to $250,000 per claim. We pay our workers’ compensation carrier, Crum and Forster, approximately $1.5 million annually; the majority of this goes into an estimated loss fund. To the extent that the total cost of injuries is less than what we pay annually into this estimated loss fund, we receive a rebate. If the total cost turns out to be more, then we pay additional amounts to Crum and Forster. In 2014, we received a rebate of $176K because of a 38% decline in injuries.

Awards for Our Employees Additionally, we were notified during the past year that three of our employees have won prestigious awards from SourceAmerica, the national not-for-profit that administers the AbilityOne Program under which we operate. Yolanda Richardson has won the National William Usdane Award, which is the highest honor given to a disabled worker in the AbilityOne program. You can read more about her story elsewhere in this report. Our Food Service Division Manager, Doug Baker, won the National Council of SourceAmerica Employers Management Excellence Award for the Pacific West region and Elizabeth Coss won the Evelyne Villines Award for the Pacific West region. All three individuals will receive their awards in May 2015 at the SourceAmerica National Training Convention in Hollywood, Florida. We congratulate them for their ongoing dedication to their careers with Job Options.

Looking forward, the fiscal environment in which we operate within the federal government will not be changing anytime in the foreseeable future, so we will continue to look for ways to operate leaner and with higher productivity in response to the contractual cost reductions we are likely to experience.

5 Job Options 2014 Annual Report


REPORT TO COMMUNITY government under the provisions of the AbilityOne program, formerly known as the Javits Wagner–O’Day act. The AbilityOne program enables certain federal government contracts to be set aside for not-forprofit firms like JOI to primarily employ individuals with disabilities. Under this legislation, people with disabilities must work a minimum of 75% of the direct labor hours expended under these contracts. We have long-term contracts with the U.S. Department of Defense, General Services Administration, Veterans Administration and Homeland Security (U.S. Customs and Border Protection). Our largest customer is the Department of Defense with a substantial presence at many of the Navy and Marine Corps bases throughout Southern California. Approximately 90% of our current employees work under contracts we have with federal agencies; the remaining perform work for the commercial sector.

J

ob Options (JOI) is approaching annual revenue of $50 million as we move through our second quarter-century of service. We continue to champion that people with disabilities, properly managed, can provide superior support services at competitive prices for our government and commercial customers.

Job Options is now in its 28th year of operation. Over the past eleven years, our annual rate of growth has been approximately 9%. In Fiscal 2013/14, revenues grew slightly to $49.1 million. To meet the requirements of these contracts, in September 2013, JOI employed 923 individuals, the majority of whom had a physical, psychological developmental or emotional disability.

As a San Diego-based nonprofit organization, our mission is to provide meaningful employment for people with disabilities. We meet this goal by employing individuals in services such as janitorial, food service, laundry, administrative services, hospital environmental services, commissary inventory management and shelf-stocking services to government and commercial customers. Most of our employment opportunities result from contracts with various agencies within the federal

We are entirely self-funded through the contractual revenue received from various government and commercial accounts. We are not dependent on any gifts or grants to fund our operations. As such, it is our responsibility to operate within our budgetary confines. The company is comprised of six Divisions: Hospital Environmental Services, Facilities, Food Services, Professional/Administrative, Laundry and Commissary Services Divisions. 6

DOUG BAKER

SOURCEAMERICA'S MANAGEMENT EXCELLENCE AWARD WINNER

A

s Director of Food Services for Job Options, Doug Baker exemplifies the dedication and ability shown by all of our supervisors in nurturing and assisting our employees to excel. This year, in recognition of Doug Baker’s thirteen years of excellence in guiding disabled workers at Camp Pendleton’s five mess halls, Doug has been awarded the SourceAmerica Management Excellence Award. His leadership and team-building management typifies the enormous positive impact he has on those he inspires, both disabled and non-disabled. Doug’s supervision in our Food Services division, under a subcontract with Sodexo Government Services, has been exemplary. For his 241 employees (202 with significant disabilities) who service the mess halls at Camp Pendleton, Doug has created systems and training that ensure contractual standards that equal or exceed those at the nine mess halls on base not served by JOI personnel. Since 2004, mess halls under Doug’s direction have been ISO 9001: 2008-certified. He consistently receives high marks from the independent ISO registrar auditing his operation at Camp Pendleton. This is simply the result of his comprehensive and ongoing training of employees, and the loyalty of his staff, most of who have been with him for more than a decade. The day-to-day routine at the Marine mess halls were put to the test in the spring of 2014, as wildfires erupted across the sprawling base. Despite the fires, Doug and his workers kept the mess halls open during the fire. Sodexo applauded Doug and the JOI team for their selfless work. This is further testament to his leadership and commitment to his employees and the soldiers.

Independent Auditor’s Report Board of Directors Job Options, Inc. San Diego, California

Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Job Options, Inc. (a nonprofit organization), which comprise the statements of financial position as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of activities and changes in net assets, functional expenses, and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management's Responsibilities for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these 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.

Auditor’s Responsibilities Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we 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 judgment, 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 statements 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. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Job Options, Inc. as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the fiscal years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements c.

Note 1 Nature of Business Job Options, Inc. (Organization) contracts with federal agencies and private companies to provide a variety of services, including janitorial, grounds maintenance, shelf stocking and laundry throughout Southern California, Utah, and Georgia. Work is performed primarily under time and material and negotiated price contracts. The workforce consists principally of capable individuals with severe mental, physical, or psychological disabilities. On-the-job training and continued support is provided to assist employees in reaching their fullest potential. The Organization works closely with the Department of Rehabilitation and other nonprofit agencies that assist individuals with disabilities and currently employs over 900 individuals.

Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

d. Income taxes The Organization is exempt from income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3). It is, however, subject to income taxes from activities unrelated to its tax-exempt purpose. The Organization uses the same accounting methods for tax and financial reporting. Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an entity in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Organization’s returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three years and four years, respectively, after they are filed.

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a. Accounting method - basis of accounting The financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to not-for-profit organizations. Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported on the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of measurement made,regardless of the measurement focus applied. The Organization uses the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned and expenditures are recognized in the accounting period in which the liability is incurred.

e. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are from time to time variously composed of cash on hand, cash in banks, and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. f.

b. Financial statement presentation The financial statements are presented in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 958-205, Not-For-Profit Entities - Presentation of Financial Statements. Under ASC 958- 205, the Organization reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: Unrestricted net assets: Unrestricted net assets are available to support all activities of the Organization, and are not subject to donor-imposed stipulations. These generally result from revenues generated by providing services, receiving unrestricted contributions, and receiving interest from investments, less expenses incurred in providing program-related services, raising contributions, and performing administrative functions.

Contracts receivable and accounts receivable Contracts receivable consists of balances due for services provided pursuant to written and verbal contracts with various public and private agencies. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America require that an allowance for doubtful accounts be established for accounts receivable. It is the Organization’s policy to evaluate the collectability of receivables on a regular and ongoing basis, if deemed necessary, an adjustment to the allowance for bad debt account is recorded. Accordingly, contracts and accounts receivable are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

g. Inventory Inventory consists primarily of laundry items, hospital items, amenities and other various rental items. The values of the inventory are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Costs are determined using the first-in, first-out method.

Temporarily restricted net assets: Net assets that are subject to donor-imposed stipulations that the restrictions be maintained permanently by the Organization. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the Organization to use all or part of the income earned on the related investments for general or specific purposes. There were no permanently restricted assets as of September 30, 2014 and 2013.

h. Fixed assets Fixed assets are recorded at cost and depreciated under the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 15 years. Repair and maintenance costs, which do not extend the useful lives of the asset, are charged to expense. The cost of assets, sold or retired, and related amounts of accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts in the year of disposal, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the earnings. Management has elected to capitalize and depreciate all assets costing $1,000 or more; all other assets are charged to expense in the year incurred.

Permanently restricted net assets: Net assets that are subject to donor-imposed stipulations that have restrictions must be maintained by the Organization.

Consistent with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, contracts receivable as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $61,000 and $75,000, respectively. The Organization recorded bad debt expense of $84,950 and $162,267 for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Investments The Organization presents its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 958-320, Not-For-Profit Entities - Investments Debt & Equity Securities. Under ASC 958-320, investments in marketable securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt securities are reported at their fair values in the Statement of Financial Position. The fair values of these investments are subject to change based on the fluctuations of market values. Unrealized gains and losses are included in the change in net assets. Investment income and gains restricted by a donor or by the Organization are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets if the restricted are met (either by the passage of time or by use) in the reporting period in which the income and gains are recognized. See Note 7 for additional information.

Note 5 Inventory Inventory at September 30, 2014 and 2013, consisted of the following:

Fair value measurements Fair value of an investment is the amount that would be received to sell the investment in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: Level 01

Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Organization has the ability to access.

Level 02

Valuations based on pricing inputs that are other than quoted prices in active markets which are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 03

Valuations are derived from other valuation methodologies, including pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
