Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (the Organization) was established in September 1998 under the laws of the State of California.

The Organization coordinates a select set of the Internet’s technical management functions such as the assignment of protocol parameters, the management of the domain name system, the allocation of IP address space, and the management of the root server system.

The Organization generates income from fees from domain name registrars and related accreditation activities plus contributions and grants. The Organization’s budget for the fiscal year ended June 2000 provides for a surplus of $1,600,000 which will be used to cover the fiscal 1999 deficit plus create an operating reserve. In addition, subsequent to the balance sheet date, the organization arranged for short-term loans totaling $800,000 to be used for working capital purposes.

Contributions - The Organization complies with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 116, "Accounting for Contributions Received and Made." In accordance with SFAS No. 116, contributions received are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted, or permanently restricted support depending on the existence and/or nature of any donor restrictions.
