Management's Responsibility 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 Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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. 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 opinions. Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation (the Corporation), a component unit of the City of Pam Desert, as of June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

See independent auditors' report. -3- PALM DESERT RECREATIONAL FACILITIES CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORTING THE COMPONENT UNIT AS A WHOLE The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position: Our analysis of the Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation as a whole begins on page 9. The Corporation plays an independent, yet vital role in completing the overall project known as Desert Willow Golf Resort (a municipal golf course owned by the City of Palm Desert). The Corporation's only function is providing the Food and Beverage operations at the Desert Willow Clubhouse. The restaurant operation within the environment of the golf industry is a necessary complement to a round of golf. The main focus of our analysis of the Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation's operations is the profitability of the food and beverage activities and tailoring the restaurant to meet the expectations of all golf enthusiasts alike. What is the outcome for the food & beverage operations for this fiscal year? The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Revenues, and the Expenses and Changes in Net Position report information about the Component Unit as a whole and about its activities. This report along with the financial highlights, noted above, illustrates the operations and the profitability of the food and beverage activities. These statements include all assets and liabilities of the Corporation using the accrual basis of accounting. With the accrual basis of accounting, all of the current year's revenues are recognized when earned instead of received, and all expenses are recorded when incurred instead of' when paid. These two statements report the Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation's net position and changes in net position. Net position is the difference between assets and liabilities, which is one way to measure the Corporation's financial health, or financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the Corporation's net position is an indication of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. To determine the profitability of the Corporation, consideration should also be given to other non -financial factors such as the changes in consumer spending as a direct result of the overall economic indicators, as well as changes in the significant industry factors such as price per golf round and level of tourism. THE. COMPONENT UNIT AS A WHOLE The Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation's net position deficit decreased by $100,018 from $837,361 to $737,343. Management's response to the market in group outings and banquet events allowed them to reduce variable costs to mitigate the reduction in gross revenues resulting in a profit of $100,018 and reduction of the net deficit. See independent auditors' report. -4- PALM DESERT RECREATIONAL FACILITIES CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The restaurant operations recognized a 5 % decrease in gross revenues and a net increase in overall costs of 1%. A decline in the Group outing and banquet events resulting from reduced sales momentum impacted by the market and personnel change resulted in the reduction of gross sales. Our analysis below focuses on the Net Position (Table 1) and Changes in Net Position (Table 2) of the Corporation.

Other Liabilities increased by $46,308 (5%), from $1.024,380 in fiscal year end 2018 to $1,070,688 in fiscal year end 2019.

The decline in revenues was directly attributed to a reduction in catering sales resulting from changes in the market. consumer choice, and the changes in personnel directly related to food and beverage sales. This fiscal year was the eighteenth year of operation at the Desert Willow Clubhouse. During this fiscal year the Palm Desert Recreation Facilities Corporation continued to market their banquets and outings aggressively in the national, regional and local markets and advertising campaign to maximize the larger facilities with the focus on: • Attracting new and repeat business. • Continued patronage of customers and corporate groups. • Increased banquet and outing operations. • Marketing to golfers on the golf course. As Table 2 above indicates, total expenses recognized an increase of $26,873 from $2,742.877 to $2,769,750. The majority of the increase was represented in maintenance and operations; specifically payroll costs. The mandated increase in the hourly minimum wage rate from $1 1 to $12 resulted in an overall payroll increase of $21.663. Other costs recognized minimal increases. During the 2018-2019 fiscal year, management continued to focus on retaining repeat business, continued patronage, and growing the corporate and group market as the economy improves. Another key focus of the restaurant during the 2018-2019 fiscal year was efficient management of labor costs and other expenditures in response to the fluctuations in operational activity. See independent auditors' report. -6- PALM DESERT RECREATIONAL FACILITIES CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The Gross Profit Margin decreased from 77% to 71%. The Selling and Administrative Expense Percentage was increased from the prior year from 63% to 67%. CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION Capital Assets/Debt Administration The Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation does not own or lease any capital assets; subsequently, there is no debt related to capital assets presented on their financial statement. More details are presented in the Notes to the Financial Statements. ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS In preparing the budget for 2019-20, management looked at the following economic factors: • Prices: The prices for goods and services in the golf industry continue to experience downward pressure resulting from the lagging economy. In an effort to maintain the integrity of the products served at the restaurant, The Palm Desert Recreational Facility has increased menu prices between 3-5% in response to the increased pressure on costs associated with labor and supplies. Secondarily, management continues to implemented better cost control measures to eliminate wastage. In addition, the Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation will continue to aggressively market and advertise to secure their market share in the local and regional golf industry. • National Economy: The golf and hospitality industries rely heavily on a strong national and local economy. With a strong national economy, the market demand for leisure activities such as golf and dining is increased; however, in an economic downturn or a slowing of the economy, the typical trend is for consumers to reduce their consumption of leisure activities. The state of the current economy was taken into consideration when budgeting for the 2019-2020 fiscal year. See independent auditors' report. -7- PALM DESERT RECREATIONAL FACILITIES CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS • Labor cost: The State of California has mandated increased minimum wage rates, which is scheduled to increase from $12 per hour to $13 per hour effective January 1, 2020. The increase minimum wage rate coupled with the mandated changes in employer provided health care benefits (Affordable Care Act) places pressure on an already fragile food industry. The Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation has taken measures to manage labor costs without affecting customer service, and will continue to seek effective and efficient methods to implement in their daily operations.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Corporation's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. PrimeGlobal LS[2,o::: To the Board of Directors Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation City of Palm Desert, California Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Corporation's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. "C-4 -gr-4V�� Brea, California January 22, 2020 18
