Independent Auditors’ Report
The Board of Directors
Compassion International, Incorporated:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Compassion International,
Incorporated and its affiliates, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30,
2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of activities, functional expenses, and cash flows for
the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial
statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design,
implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of
consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ 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 accepted in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of Compassion International, Incorporated and its affiliates as of June 30,
2016 and 2015, and the changes in their net assets and their cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of
accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The net assets,
revenue, gains, and other support and expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements
are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets
of Compassion and changes therein are classified and reported as follows:
Unrestricted Net Assets – Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions. Unrestricted
net assets may be designated by the board of directors for specific purposes at any time.

(Continued)
COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL, INCORPORATED AND AFFILIATES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2016 and 2015
Temporarily Restricted Net Assets – Net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions that may or will
be met with either actions of Compassion and/or the passage of time. When a restriction expires,
temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the
consolidated statements of activities as net assets released from restrictions.
Permanently Restricted Net Assets – Permanently restricted net assets represent resources subject to
donor-imposed restrictions to be invested in perpetuity, and only the income may be available for
program operations. The income realized from the permanently restricted net assets is temporarily
restricted for use in the child development and leadership development programs.
(b)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and short-term investments with maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition
are considered cash and cash equivalents. Compassion maintains cash accounts in the U.S. and
internationally. Cash accounts in the U.S. may exceed federally insured amounts at times. Cash
balances maintained internationally are not insured. Management believes no significant risk exists
due to the size and financial wherewithal of the financial institutions where accounts are held.
(c)
Investments
Investments are recorded at fair value. Gains or losses, whether realized or unrealized, are recognized
when they occur.
(d)
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Land, buildings and building improvements, furniture, equipment, software, and vehicles are recorded
at cost when purchased or at estimated fair value if received by donation. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, with no salvage
value. Buildings and building improvements are depreciated over 5 to 30 years, furniture and
equipment are depreciated over 3 to 10 years, vehicles are depreciated over 3 to 5 years, and software
and other are amortized over 3 to 5 years.
(e)
Intangibles
Intangibles are recorded at cost when purchased or at estimated fair value if received by donation.
Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
assets. Intangibles are amortized over 3 to 10 years.

Gift Annuities Payable
Under gift annuity contracts, Compassion receives irrevocable title to contributed assets and agrees to
make fixed period payments to the donor(s) for life. Contributed assets are recorded at fair value at the
date of receipt, and a liability is established for the present value of future annuity payments based on
a discount rate of 5.6%. The excess of contributed assets over the annuity liability is recorded as
unrestricted revenue. Any actuarial gain or loss resulting from the computation of the liability for the
present value of future annuity payments is recorded as an unrestricted change in the value of
split-interest agreements. Upon the donor’s death, the remaining liability is recognized as revenue.
(h)
Revocable Trust Agreements
Assets received and held under revocable trust agreements are recorded at fair value at the date of
receipt and as corresponding liabilities. Investment income is paid to the income beneficiaries and is
not recorded as revenue or expense by Compassion. Upon the donor’s death, the assets are distributed
to the beneficiaries of the trust, which may include Compassion. Assets of revocable trusts in which
Compassion is named as a beneficiary but that are not held or controlled by Compassion are not
recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position.
(i)
Irrevocable Trust Agreements
Under irrevocable trust agreements, Compassion receives contributed investments and agrees to
maintain the principal of the investment and make annual payments to the donor(s) or other named
beneficiaries for life. The annual payments are based on a fixed rate of return or on related investment
income, as stipulated in the trust agreement. Amounts received under irrevocable trust agreements, net
of the present value of future payments to beneficiaries, are recorded as temporarily restricted support
upon receipt. Investment income and payments made to donors in accordance with the terms of the
trust agreements are recorded as increases and decreases to the liability for trust obligations,
respectively. A liability for trust obligations is recorded for the present value of future payments to
beneficiaries based on a rate of return appropriate for the expected term of the promise to give. Any
actuarial gain or loss resulting from the computation of the liability for the present value of future
payments to beneficiaries is recorded as temporarily restricted changes in the value of split-interest
agreements. Upon the death of the donor, the assets are transferred from temporarily restricted net
assets as designated by the trust agreement. Certain trusts name other charitable organizations as partial
remaindermen.
(j)
Contributions and Contributed Services
Contributions are recorded as received and pledged. Compassion reports contributions of cash and
other assets as restricted support if they are received with donor-imposed restrictions that limit the use
of the donated assets. The majority of Compassion’s contributions are received from individuals and
the Global Partner Alliance (see note 4).

Contributed services for specialized skills are recognized at the fair value of the services received.
Compassion received and recorded contributed services of $169,598 and $126,646 for the years ended
June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, in the consolidated statements of activities. Additionally, a
substantial number of volunteer workers have donated significant amounts of time to Compassion’s
programs, administration, and fund-raising activities that are not reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, as the services provided do not meet the required accounting criteria
to be recognized.
(k)
Functional Expense Allocation
The cost of providing the various programs and supporting services has been summarized on a
functional basis in the consolidated statements of activities. Accordingly, certain costs have been
allocated among the programs and supporting services benefited.
The child development program represents costs to assist over 1,870,000 (unaudited) and 1,730,000
(unaudited) children in Compassion’s child survival, child sponsorship, and leadership development
programs in 2016 and 2015, respectively. These programs are paid for through grants that engage
children in activities to develop them spiritually, economically, socially, and physically. Other grants
are provided to beneficiaries in the child development program for specific interventions such as,
disaster relief, medical, and educational needs. Compassion also uses program funds to oversee and
enhance the program effectiveness, develop and train church workers at new projects, and to extend
its expertise in holistic child development to international churches and organizations that do not
currently implement Compassion’s programs, but have a deep passion and concern for children.
Sponsor/donor ministries represent costs used to enhance the sponsor/child relationship to challenge
the U.S. Christian public to expand their activities to include ministry to children. Funds are used to
gather and disseminate information to sponsors concerning their sponsored child, process
correspondence between the sponsor and the child, and educate on the importance and challenges of
child development.
(l)
Income Taxes
Compassion has been recognized as exempt from federal income taxes on income related to its exempt
purposes under Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC) as an organization
described in Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC. Compassion generated no significant net unrelated business
income during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. As an Association of Churches, Compassion
is classified as a public charity and not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(1) and
170(b)(1)(A)(i) of the IRC.

Self-Funded Medical Insurance
As of January 1, 2008, Compassion established a plan for self-funding medical claims of employees
in the United States of America. Through its broker, Compassion has contracted with a third party to
administer the health plan. Compassion has also purchased stop loss coverage, which provides for an
annual specific deductible per individual of $250,000 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.
Compassion has estimated potential incurred, but unreported claims to be approximately $1,261,000
and $1,216,000 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which have been accrued in
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
(n)
Foreign Currency
Substantially all assets and liabilities of consolidated foreign field offices have been translated at
foreign exchange rates in effect at June 30, 2016 and 2015. All foreign office revenue and expense
amounts are converted at the rate in effect on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency transaction
gains and losses are included in the determination of the change in net assets.
(o)
Fair Value Measurement
Compassion evaluates fair value of assets and liabilities according to the following:
Cash and cash equivalents – Fair value is estimated to be the same as the carrying (book) value
because of their short maturities.
Investments – Investments are recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value hierarchy.
See further discussion at note 3.
Receivables from Global Partner Alliance – Fair value is estimated to be the same as the
carrying (book) value because of their short maturities.
Accounts receivable – Fair value is estimated to be the same as the carrying (book) value
because of their short maturities.
Foreign exchange contracts – Foreign exchange contracts are recorded at fair value in
accordance with the fair value hierarchy. See further discussion at note 3.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities – Fair value is estimated to be the same as the
carrying (book) value due to the short maturities of accounts payable; included in accrued
liabilities is the present value of future obligations for gift annuities and trusts, which is adjusted
annually. The carrying (book) value approximates fair value because of their short maturities.
Accrued severance/retirement benefits for national employees – Fair value is estimated to
be the same as carrying (book) value.
Funds committed to sponsorship projects – Fair value is estimated to be the same as the
carrying (book) value due to the majority of the funds committed to sponsorship projects having
short maturities.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenue, gains, and other support and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
(q)
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2015 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for comparative
purposes to conform to the presentation in the 2016 consolidated financial statements.
(3)
Investments and Fair Value Measurements
Compassion applies the fair value measurements of assets and liabilities that are recognized and disclosed
at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is the exchange price
that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the
measurement date. The fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques is used to
measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable (Level 3
measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
that Compassion has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or
indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active.
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Inputs are used in applying the various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market
participants use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may include price
information, volatility statistics, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics, and other factors. A
financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is
significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes “observable”
requires significant judgment by Compassion. Compassion considers observable data to be that market data,
which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and
provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of a
financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does
not necessarily correspond to Compassion’s perceived risk of that instrument.

Level 3
Investments and restricted investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets,
and are, therefore, classified within Level 1, include actively listed equities, and certain mutual funds.
Investments and restricted investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but are
valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources supported by
observable inputs are classified within Level 2. The majority of these include U.S. government obligations,
primarily U.S. Treasury bills, and investment grade U.S. corporate bonds. As Level 2 investments include
positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be
adjusted to reflect liquidity and/or nontransferability, which are generally based on available market
information.
Investments and restricted investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs, as
they trade infrequently or not at all. Level 3 instruments include privately held corporate stocks.
Foreign exchange contracts (contracts) are negotiated over the counter. The contracts are valued by
Compassion using available market pricing models and the value depends upon the contractual terms of the
instrument. The model has observable inputs other than quoted prices that can be corroborated by market
data. The contracts are, therefore, classified within Level 2.

Global Partner Alliance
Compassion has entered into an alliance with unaffiliated international organizations to raise funds to release
children from poverty. Together, Compassion and 11 unaffiliated international organizations form the Global
Partner Alliance (GPA). Compassion maintains children’s files, selects and monitors projects, provides field
supervision, and distributes funds on behalf of the international organizations for those activities that are
jointly conducted. Compassion is reimbursed for the costs incurred in providing these services. Because
Compassion has control over the ultimate distribution of amounts received from the international
organizations, such amounts are included as revenue and related program payments are included as expenses
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The unaffiliated international organizations have
separate fund-raising and administrative expenses that are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. Receivables from the GPA consist of trade receivables and are carried at original
invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables. Receivables from the unaffiliated
international organizations were $8,529,271 and $10,399,291 as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Management believes there are no uncollectible accounts for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015,
respectively.
The GPA funded the start-up costs for Compassion Norden’s operations in fiscal years 2016 and 2015.
Compassion’s share of the costs were recorded in the consolidated statements of activities as fund-raising
expense in the amount of $516,493 and $986,983 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, Compassion had two donor-restricted endowment funds. These permanently
restricted endowment funds have donor-imposed restrictions, which classifies the original value of gifts
donated as permanently restricted net assets. The net assets for child sponsorship and leadership development
are invested to provide a long-term total return sufficient to support a number of sponsorships in third world
countries. A portion of the earnings from the donor-restricted endowment funds may be used to keep the
endowment principal at adequate levels to ensure perpetuity of funding. The remaining endowment earnings
can be appropriated for expenditure in accordance with the donor’s stipulations.
The child sponsorship endowment fund is established for the purpose of providing ongoing support for
children participating in Compassion’s child sponsorship program. The leadership development endowment
fund is established for the purpose of providing ongoing support for students participating in Compassion’s
leadership development program.

(15) U.S. Pension Plan
Compassion has a defined-contribution pension plan covering substantially all U.S. paid employees. The
plan is noncontributory for employees and has a five-year vesting period. Contributions are equal to 10% of
each covered employee’s qualifying compensation. Pension contribution expense was $6,489,079 and
$6,626,043 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
(16) Severance/Retirement Benefits for National Employees
For the year ended June 30, 2015, Compassion maintained a self-funded benefit plan for national employees,
which are employees outside of the United States paid by field offices. The liability recognized in the
June 30, 2015 consolidated statement of financial position is the undiscounted accumulation of the amount
that was agreed to be paid to an employee who left the organization in good standing after three years of
service. Compassion accrued the higher of one month’s salary for each year worked or the amount required
by local laws. National severance/retirement contribution expense was $420,622 and $2,921,314 for the
years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
During the year ended June 30, 2016, Compassion terminated the self-funded benefit plan for national
employees, and as a result Compassion made benefit payments of $13,346,938. In addition, Compassion
established a benefit plan structure in 2016 that is individualized for each field office depending on local
laws and regulations or common market practices, some of which are defined contribution plans. The defined
contribution plans cover all employees in the local office with which the plan is associated, are
noncontributory for employees and have a three- to six-month probationary period. Contributions to the plans
range from four to eight percent of each covered employee’s qualifying compensation. Contribution expense
for these defined contribution plans established in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 was $313,896.
Compassion accrues for severance expense when benefits are to be provided for virtually all departures.
When severance expense cannot be calculated until the specific circumstances of an employee’s departure
are known, payments are expensed as incurred.
