NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

The Members of the Governing Body present their Annual Report for the year ended 31 July 2022 under the Charities Act 2011, together with the audited Financial Statements for the year.

REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION

The College of St Mary of Winchester in Oxford, commonly called New College, is a constituent college within the University of Oxford, and is known as New College, Oxford. It is an eleemosynary lay chartered charitable corporation aggregate. It was founded by William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, under a Royal Charter of Richard the Second (dated 30[th] June 1379) and a Deed of Foundation (dated 26[th] November 1379). The corporation comprises the Warden and Fellows as the Members of the Governing Body; and the foundation comprises the Warden, Fellows, and Scholars. New College is a Registered Charity (Number 1142701). The trade-name ‘New College Oxford’ is registered (No. 2588652). The names of all Members of the Governing Body at the date of this Report and of those who were Fellows during the year - together with list of the College Officers, of its Senior Staff, and of its Advisers - are given above.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing documents

The College is governed by its Charter & Statutes, and the terms of the latter are ultimately enforceable by the Visitor, the Lord Bishop of Winchester. The College Statutes are as made from time to time by Order of Her Majesty in Council in accordance with the Royal Charter of 1379 and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge Act 1923. The Statutes were extensively revised in 2005-6, and the revisions approved by the Privy Council in July 2006.

Governing Body

The Governing Body is constituted and regulated in accordance with the College Statutes, and comprises the Warden & Fellows who are a self-appointing corporate body. The Governing Body determines the ongoing strategic direction of the College and regulates its administration, and also the management of its finances and assets. It meets regularly under the chairmanship of the Warden and is advised by Committees, whose remit and membership it determines from time to time.

Recruitment and training of Members of the Governing Body

New Members of the Governing Body are elected and duly inducted into the workings of the College, including Governing Body policy and procedures. Members of the Governing Body are kept informed on current issues in the charities sector and on its regulatory requirements, as well as on the university sector, by the College Officers/Committees.

Remuneration of Members of the Governing Body and Senior College Staff

Members of the Governing Body are primarily Fellows who also are teaching and research employees of the College and receive no remuneration or benefits from their trusteeship of the College. Those trustees that are also employees of the College receive remuneration for their work as employees of the College which is based on the advice of the College’s Remuneration Committee, members of which are not trustees and are not in receipt of remuneration from the College. Where possible, remuneration is set in line with that awarded to the University’s academic staff, which in turn links to national pay awards for university employees.

The remuneration of Senior Staff is set by Governing Body.

Organisational management

The Members of the Governing Body meet termly. The work of developing its policies and monitoring the implementation of these is carried out mainly by certain key Committees: Academic Strategy, Admissions, Buildings, Development, Endowment, Equality & Diversity, Finance & General Purposes, IT, Library, Remuneration, Tuition, Research & Graduates, Warden & Tutors. The Endowment Committee benefits from the presence of alumni as non-voting members; and the Remuneration Committee comprises Honorary Fellows and external members, none of whom are Members of the Governing Body.

The day-to-day running of the College is delegated to the College Officers as supported by the Senior Staff and as advised by the College Advisers, all as listed above.

NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

Group structure and relationships

The College administers a number of special trusts, as detailed in the Notes to the Financial Statements.

The College has two wholly-owned non-charitable subsidiaries, Longwall Limited and Longwall II Limited, both of which were active during the year.

The College is part of the collegiate University of Oxford. Material interdependencies between the University and the College arise as a consequence of this relationship.

The College is supported financially by the New College Development Fund (Registered Charity No. 900202), which is managed by three trustees (two alumni and the College as a corporate trustee).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Charitable Objects and Aims

The College’s charitable objectives as registered with the Charity Commission are: the advancement of education, learning and research (as discussed below); and the advancement of religion (in that the College is a choral college in accordance with the Founder’s intentions and hence it sustains a Choir and a Choir School).

The College provides, in conjunction with the University of Oxford, an education for over 700 undergraduate and graduate students. This education develops students academically and advances their leadership qualities and interpersonal skills, and so prepares them to play full and effective roles in society and within the economy. In particular, the College provides: teaching facilities and individual or small-group supervision, as well as pastoral, administrative and academic support through its tutorial and graduate mentoring systems; specialist choral musical education for its choral students, who with the New College School choristers make-up the College’s Choir; and social, cultural, musical, recreational and sporting facilities – all so as to enable as far as possible its students to fulfil their academic and personal potential whilst studying at the College.

In addition, the College advances research by: providing Junior Research Fellowships to outstanding academics at the early stages of their careers, which enable them to develop and focus on their research in this formative period before they undertake the full teaching and administrative duties of an academic post; supporting research work pursued by its other Fellows through promoting interaction across disciplines, providing facilities, and providing grants for national and international conferences, research trips and research materials; encouraging visits from outstanding academics from abroad; and encouraging the dissemination of research undertaken by members of the College through the publication of papers in academic journals or other suitable means.

The College maintains an extensive Library (including important special collections), so providing a valuable resource for students and Fellows of the College, and the University of Oxford more widely, as well as external scholars and researchers.

The Governing Body has considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and in keeping with its objects, the College’s contributions for the public benefit are:

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Michaelmas Term 2021 began with a strong sense of normality, in the College’s academic and extra-curricular life. The late flurry of Covid 19 was handled smoothly without affecting operations in any way. In November, however, the Warden contracted the virus, and was hospitalised until February 2022, when he returned to College for convalescence, thereafter gradually returning to full duties. During this period the Sub Warden

7

NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

took up his role. Affairs were efficiently and effectively handled during this period by the Sub Warden and Senior College Officers, reflecting the sturdiness of the College’s governance procedures.

On 15[th] June, 8[th] week of Trinity Term 2022, the Warden was re-elected by Governing Body for a further term of office from 2023, of which he has indicated his intent to serve three more years.

Academically the College continued to perform to our expectations, even though our ranking in the Norrington table was slightly lower than the previous year. However, with 48 Firsts and Distinctions out of a cohort of 112 students our results are nonetheless excellent. It is worth noting that the College established two new research centres. One in the area of Green Ammonia, led by Professor Rene Banares Alcantara, and the other in the area of Theoretical Physics, led by Professor Shivaji Sondhi. Professor Sondhi joined as Wykeham Professor of Physics from Princeton University, and the centre is in part-funded by grants from the Leverhulme Trust.

Foundation funding was also raised for establishing the Gradel Institute of Charity, which organises research in an under-researched area, and which nonetheless supports the health of the third sector in the UK.

Other new academic staff joining the fellowship this year were in Biochemistry, Economics, Engineering, Plant Sciences, and Politics.

Junior members, through both the JCR and MCR committees, continued to play an active and constructive role in the College’s affairs. On the return to normality we witnessed an exceptionally wide range of activities being pursued with energy and enthusiasm, from arts to sports. College music continued to offer opportunities of an exceptional range and quality for our students, ranging from events organised by the New College Music Society to the concerts of the New College Chamber Orchestra. The Choir completed a successful tour of Northern Ireland, as well as recording a compilation of the specially commissioned works of New College over recent decades. It is worth noting the exceptional vitality of sports in the period, the College won Cuppers in tennis, netball, powerlifting, hockey and rugby, the latter for the first time in 99 years.

The end of Covid has resulted in the resumption of some important revenue sources, most notably the slow but steady resumption of conference and summer school trade, and the opening of the Visitors’ Gate once more. Nevertheless, the College still sought to maintain savings wherever possible to help mitigate the income lost in the first half of the year as a result of the pandemic, and the need for savings continues into next year as the College contends with surging inflation pressures against a backdrop of limited increases in student fees nationally.

New College School had a very successful year, with the pupil roll satisfactorily full, and a high level of parental satisfaction. The school was formally inspected by ISIS and recognised as being ‘outstanding’, ‘excellent’ and ‘exceptional’. Considerable thought in the year has gone into how to mitigate the impact of the local authority’s road and traffic plans, with some promising options identified for implementation in 2022/3.

This year saw the College’s long-standing wish to be released from its solus link to Northern Ireland and the university access strategy, and to be assigned a mainland region where classical work in widening participation could be accomplished. As a result, the College has finally been allocated Wales, and already with two Welsh speakers in the Outreach team, a comprehensive programme of activity has been laid down for the years ahead. In the meantime, New College’s own Step-Up strategy, which involves adopting 37 schools throughout England and Wales, and involving them in a continuity programme, is increasingly beginning to show the first results in both applications and acceptances.

Much of the management attention in the last year has been concentrated on the construction of the Gradel Quadrangles, a major capital project of £72m which will give us the ability to house all our third year students who currently live out. A Gradel Quadrangles Steering Group is chaired by the Warden and meets monthly. To date, the project is on budget and on time.

Satisfyingly, the Gradel Quadrangles have already been recognised for their high level of sustainability, receiving recognition from the Institute of Civil Engineers. In the last year the College adopted a formal sustainability strategy, and designated a Sustainability Fellow. The Sustainability Working Group meets once a term, chaired by the Warden, and measures progress against objectives, as well as evaluating new initiatives.

NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

Fundraising Activity

Fundraising for the College is carried out by the Development Office, a department of the College, and supported by volunteers who provide advice to the Office. The Development Committee meets termly and provides advice on and oversight of fundraising and Old Member engagement. Priorities for fundraising in the past year have been raising funds for the Gradel Quadrangles and to allow for increased Access and Outreach activity.

New College does not fundraise from member of the general public; its activities are focussed on building relationships with Old Members (former students), existing donors and other friends of the College. The College continues to work to maintain the integrity of its data and to ensure that all evidence of consent, whenever it is required, is recorded. The College’s compliance with General Data Protection Regulations is central to the governance of its development activity.

The College is registered with the Fundraising Regulator and follows their guidance and best practice. This includes having particular consideration when working with vulnerable people and the College has a clear policy on fundraising with and responding to people in vulnerable circumstances which is posted on the College website. The College also publishes on its website a fundraising complaints procedure. During the year there were no fundraising complaints brought to the College’s attention.

The total raised in the year from donations and legacies was £4.1m (£7.2m in the previous year).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Covid pandemic

Day-to-day activity has, in many parts of the College, returned to normal or near-normal operational levels during the year, largely matching budget expectation. General uncertainty surrounding the potential for new variants meant visitor admissions remained subdued and the return of one of the College’s regular summer school programmes was deferred for another year; income was £0.4m below budget in these two areas.

The financial year saw income from charitable and trading activities recovering to £10.1m (2021: £8.0m) and the College’s consolidated funds increase by £15.6m to £363.3m (2021: £347.7m). This increase is made up of a £14.1m increase in endowment funds, a £0.2m increase in restricted funds, and a £1.4m increase in unrestricted funds.

Income during the year was £20.2m (2021: £19.0m):

2022 2021
• Tuition fees and other academic income £3.87m £3.45m
• Residential income £3.54m £2.21m
• Donations and legacies £4.10m £7.16m
• Choir School fees and public worship £2.50m £2.36m
• Admission charges and facilities fees £0.18m £0.01m
• Investment income £5.93m £3.10m
• Other income £0.04m £0.69m

Donations in the year included £2.6m for the Gradel Quadrangles project (2021: £2.4m) and £0.4m for student support and scholarships (2021: £0.7m). Endowment donations fell back to £0.15m (2021: £1.2m) following the previous year’s £1m gift to support scholarships in humanities subjects and diversity in our visiting fellowships programmes. Other income reflects the final two months of Covid-related government grant.

Expenditure rose by £4.4m to £21.3m (2021: £16.9m), reflecting student-related operations returning to preCovid levels, but also sharply rising fuel costs and a £2.2m increase in the USS pension scheme deficit.

2022 2021
• Teaching and residential activity £17.80m £13.72m
• Choir School and public worship £2.66m £2.45m
• Fundraising, trading, and investment fees £0.88m £0.75m

NEW COLLEGE

Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

The major changes in spend in the year were:

• +£2.15m USS pension scheme deficit £2.16m £0.01m
• +£0.56m Gross pay costs £11.35m £10.79m
• -£0.44m Catering supplies £0.74m £0.30m
• +£0.28m Gas and electricity £0.67m £0.39m

The Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) scheme deficit recovery plan saw a substantial £2.2m worsening in the year to £3.9m, more than doubling the previous year’s £1.7m deficit. Notes 22 and 30 to the following Financial Statements details more about the USS deficit and recovery plan.

By contrast, the Oxford Staff Pension Scheme deficit recovery plan saw a small reduction of £0.01m in the overall deficit, which remains at £0.5m.

Gains on investments during the year were £16.8m (2021: £55.4m).

College’s unrestricted funds showed a £1.4m increase for the year (2021: £5.4m).

The School recorded a surplus for the year of £0.09m (2021: £0.12m).

Fixed asset additions in the year were £17.3m (2021: £4.2m). In-year expenditure on the Gradel Quadrangles development as it moved through the enabling works stage amounted to £17.2m (2021: £4.2m).

The Governing Body continues to exercise firm control over costs and to seek additional income via existing and new income-generating activities, ranging from the conference trade to alumni-giving.

Reserves policy

The College’s reserves policy is to maintain sufficient free reserves to enable it to meet its short-term financial obligations in the event of an unexpected revenue shortfall and to allow the College to be managed efficiently and to provide a buffer that would ensure uninterrupted services. The Warden & Fellows are satisfied that the overall level of the Reserves of the College as a charity are appropriate in relation to the present levels of activity and the perceived levels of risk identified as part of the risk assessment and risk management process.

Total funds of the College at the year-end amounted to £363.3m (2021: £347.7m), comprised of:

£m £m
• Endowment funds
o General purpose 265.7
o Restricted purpose 37.6 303.3
• Restricted funds
o Unspent endowment income 1.5
o Other 2.7 4.2
• Unrestricted funds
o General free reserves 1.4
o Designated reserves 58.7
o Pension deficit reserves -4.3 55.8

Designated reserves include the £57.8m land/building depreciation reserves (to fund the book value of tangible fixed assets, less associated funding arrangements).

Risk management

The College has processes which operated through-out the financial year for identifying, evaluating, and managing the principal risks and uncertainties faced by the College in undertaking its activities. When it is not able to address risk issues using internal resources, the College takes advice from experts external to the College with specialist knowledge. Policies and procedures within the College are reviewed by the relevant College Committee. Financial risks are assessed by the Finance Committee and investment risks are monitored by the Endowment Committee. In addition, the Home Bursar and domestic staff heads meet regularly to review health and safety issues. Training courses and other forms of career development are available to members of staff to enhance their skills in risk-related areas.

The Governing Body, which has ultimate responsibility for managing any risks faced by the College, has reviewed the processes in place for managing risk and the principal identified risks to which the College and its subsidiaries are exposed, and has concluded that adequate systems are in place to manage these risks.

10

NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

Risk assessment systems provide reasonable, rather than absolute, certainty that all major risks are managed. The impact of Covid on the College remained under close review throughout the year. The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the College that have been identified are categorised as follows:

Risk Measures
Fall in endowment asset value Monitoring by Endowment Committee (see below)
Increase in USS pension liability Monitoring by Finance & General Purposes
Committee
Breaches in IT security Monitoring by IT Sub-Committee, IT Fellow and IT
Director
Weakness in teaching Monitoring by Tuition, Research & Graduates
Committee and Senior Tutor
Failures in pastoral care Monitoring by Welfare Committee
Fire and loss of buildings Monitoring by Buildings Committee
Pandemic Monitoring by FGPC and the H&S Committee

Investment policy, objectives, and performance

The College’s investment objectives are to balance current and future beneficiary needs by:

To meet these objectives the College’s investments as a whole are managed on a total return basis, maintaining diversification across a range of asset classes in order to produce an appropriate balance between risk and return. In line with this approach, the College statutes allow the College to invest permanent endowments to maximise the related total return and to make available for expenditure each year an appropriate proportion of the unapplied total return.

The investment policy and strategy are set by the Governing Body as advised by the Endowment Committee, and performance is regularly monitored by the Endowment Committee. Appropriate benchmarks are set for the fund-managers and their performance measured against them.

At year-end the College’s long-term investments, combining the securities and property investments, totalled £296.3m (2021: £290.7m). Valuation gains during the year of £16.8m (2021: £55.1m) come from £18.6m gains on the College’s rural estate (particularly, at Banbury and Upper Heyford), offset slightly by a £1.7m fall in managed funds, mirroring global investment markets’ general fall in the second half of the year. During the year £8.7m was transferred from Endowment to contribute to the funding of the Gradel Quadrangles project. The overall investment total return was +7.8% (2021: +24.3%) over the year.

The carrying value of the preserved permanent capital and the amount of any unapplied total return available for expenditure was taken as the open market values of these funds as at 1 August 2002 together with the original gift value of all subsequent endowment received.

Under the total return accounting basis it is the Governing Body’s policy to extract as income 3.25% of the value of the relevant investments, smoothed by taking the year-end values for the current year (before in-year withdrawal) and for the previous four years. The Governing Body will keep the level of income withdrawn under review to balance the needs and interests of current and future beneficiaries of the College’s activities.

11

NEW COLLEGE Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2022

Policy on ethical investment

The College had reconsidered the issues involved in underpinning its investment policy with a specifically ethical and sustainability stance and, in consultation with the Junior and Middle Common Rooms, had examined how an effective policy might be implemented. In light of its broad charitable objects, the conclusion had previously been that it would be difficult to isolate any particular sector or company whose activities were specifically antithetical to those of the College without excluding many companies whose activities, taken in the round, are broadly positive for the College’s charitable objectives. It was also concluded that any such policy on ethical investment would risk limiting the overall investment return to the College by excluding particular areas of investment but without necessarily advancing the College’s charitable objectives. The review as noted had amended our thinking on the balancing of excluding certain areas of economic activity (such as fossil-fuels industries) with the ability to meet the fiduciary duty imposed upon the Fellows as charity trustees to maximise the value of the College’s Endowment assets. The College has now adopted a Statement on Ethical, Social, and Governance Principles impacting on our Investment policy.

FUTURE PLANS

The College’s future planning is agreed and monitored by the Governing Body, on the advice of various committees and sub-committees.

As we emerge from the pandemic, our overwhelming concern is to ensure we mitigate the financial impacts caused by losses of revenue. To that end, the Scrutiny Sub-Committee will be preparing a 5 Year Financial Plan, based on current realities, which will be presented to Governing Body for approval.

Our priority continues to be that of providing a high-quality education for undergraduates and graduates, at very high levels of academic excellence. This is constantly monitored, and the evidence is that the levels of excellence remain very high. Our Academic Strategy committee, as part of an examination of the “size and shape” of the College, has decided to introduce one new subject in undergraduate teaching, which, after careful appraisal of the alternatives, will be Arabic. We shall be giving careful attention next year to establishing this subject area and laying the ground for its success. A fellow in Arabic has already been identified with help of the Faculty, who is closely engaged in working through this plan.

The College will continue to invest in its Access and Outreach activity, and a major new effort will be made in Wales, our newly assigned region. The number of direct interactions with target schools will continue to increase. One new strategic focus will be on widening participation in certain subject areas, where teaching in the state sector has declined or even vanished. Two subject-specific plans are being prepared, which will be piloted. Our objectives remain meeting and exceeding the Polar and Acorn targets defined within in the University Access Plan. Our subjects make this challenging in some cases, but we are seeking a very targeted approach to help achieve it.

Next year will see the completion and opening of the Gradel Quadrangles. After that, the College will be able to assess its strategic priorities for other work which is required to the College estate. The Chapel roof requires repair, according to the Quinquennial survey, and, at the same time, the Song Room can be made fit for purpose. A significant project for the medium/long term is the Library. Our Library is currently too small for our student body, and an initial feasibility study has been commissioned to investigate how best an extension could be engineered. The objective would be to take this to alumni and potential donors once it is completed to elicit interest. Finally, in order to keep our promise of housing all our undergraduate students, a close eye will be kept on the demand and supply of student rooms, with the possible need at some stage in the future to find or acquire more.

STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING RESPONSIBILITIES

We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Members of the Governing Body’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Members of the Governing Body with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The Members of the Governing Body are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

NEW COLLEGE

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of the Governing Body of New College

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of the Members of the Governing Body

As explained more fully in the Statement of Accounting and Reporting Responsibilities [set out on page 12], the Members of the Governing Body are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Members of the Governing Body are responsible for assessing the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Members of the Governing Body either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

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 opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:

We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

15

NEW COLLEGE

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of the Governing Body of New College

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the Members of Governing Body and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.

This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the College’s Governing Body, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Members of the Governing Body those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the College’s Governing Body as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NEW COLLEGE

Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

1. Scope of the Financial Statements

The Financial Statements present the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA), the Consolidated and College Balance Sheets and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows of the College and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Longwall II Limited and Longwall Limited. Longwall II Limited has been consolidated from the date of its formation by the College, which owns 100% of the share capital. College also owns 100% of the share capital in Longwall Limited, which is consolidated from 1 August 2019 when it resumed trading, having been dormant for a number of years previously. No separate SOFA has been presented for the College alone as currently permitted by the Charity Commission on a concessionary basis for the filing of consolidated financial statements. A summary of the results and financial position of the charity and each of its material subsidiaries for the reporting year are in note 14.

2. Basis of accounting

The College’s Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, in particular ‘FRS 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (FRS 102).

The College is a public benefit entity for the purposes of FRS 102 and a registered charity. The College has therefore also prepared its financial statements in accordance with ‘The Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with FRS 102’ (The Charities SORP (FRS 102)).

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and on the historical cost basis, except for the measurement of investments and certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value with movements in value reported within the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA). The Members of the Governing Body have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the College to continue as a going concern, including the impact of the current COVID-19 emergency. The College has prepared cash flow and other forecasts, taking into account the potential pressures on income, which confirm the College will have sufficient liquidity to operate for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The College therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below and have been applied consistently throughout the year.

3. Accounting judgements and estimation uncertainty

In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The following judgements and estimates are considered by the Governing Body to have most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

17

NEW COLLEGE Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

recognition of a liability for the contributions payable that arise from the agreement (to the extent that they relate to the deficit) and the resulting expense in profit or loss in accordance with section 28 of FRS 102. The Governing Body is satisfied that Universities Superannuation Scheme and Oxford Staff Pension Scheme both meet the definition of a multi-employer scheme and the College has therefore recognised the discounted fair value of the contractual contributions under the recovery plans in existence at the date of approving the financial statements. The pension deficits recorded are dependent on estimates of future employment patterns and interest rates. The effects of changes to these assumptions are shown in note 22.

With respect to the next financial year, the most significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the College are the level of investment return and the performance of investment markets.

4. Income recognition

All income is recognised once the College has entitlement to the income, the economic benefit is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.

a. Income from fees, OfS support and other charges for services

Fees receivable, less any scholarships, bursaries or other allowances granted from the College unrestricted funds, OfS support and charges for services and use of the premises are recognised in the period in which the related service is provided.

b. Income from donations, grants, and legacies

Donations and grants that do not impose specific future performance-related or other specific conditions are recognised on the date on which the charity has entitlement to the resource, the amount can be reliably measured and the economic benefit to the College of the donation or grant is probable. Donations and grants subject to performance-related conditions are recognised as and when those conditions are met. Donations and grants subject to other specific conditions are recognised as those conditions are met or their fulfilment is wholly within the control of the College and it is probable that the specified conditions will be met.

Legacies are recognised following grant of probate and once the College has received sufficient information from the executor(s) of the deceased’s estate to be satisfied that the gift can be reliably measured and that the economic benefit to the College is probable.

Donations, grants, and legacies accruing for the general purpose of the College are credited to unrestricted funds.

Donations, grants and legacies which are subject to conditions as to their use imposed by the donor or set by the terms of an appeal are credited to the relevant restricted fund or, where the donation, grant or legacy is required to be held as capital, to the endowment funds. Where donations are received in kind (as distinct from cash or other monetary assets), they are measured at the fair value of those assets at the date of the gift.

c. Investment income

Interest on bank balances is accounted for on an accrual basis with interest recognised in the period to which the interest relates.

Income from fixed interest debt securities is recognised using the effective interest rate method. Dividend income and similar distributions are recognised on the date the share interest becomes exdividend or when the right to the dividend can be established.

Income from investment properties is recognised in the period to which the rental income relates.

5. Expenditure

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. A liability and related expenditure is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation commits the College to expenditure that will probably require settlement, the amount of which can be reliably measured or estimated.

18

NEW COLLEGE

Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

Grants awarded that are not performance-related are charged as an expense as soon a legal or constructive obligation for their payment arises. Grants subject to performance-related conditions are expensed as the specified conditions of the grant are met.

All expenditure including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure categories in the Statement of Financial Activities (the SOFA).

Support costs which includes governance costs (costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements) and other indirect costs are is apportioned to expenditure categories in the SOFA based on the estimated amount attributable to that activity in the year, either by reference to staff time or the use made of the underlying assets, as appropriate. Irrecoverable VAT is included with the item of expenditure to which it relates.

Intra-group sales and charges between the College and its subsidiaries are excluded from trading income and expenditure in the consolidated financial statements.

6. Leases

Leases of assets that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. The costs of the assets held under finance leases are included within fixed assets and depreciation is charged over the shorter of the lease term and the assets’ useful lives. Assets are assessed for impairment at each reporting date. The corresponding capital obligations under these leases are shown as liabilities and recognised at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between capital repayment and finance charges in the SOFA so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Leases that do not transfer all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. Rentals payable under operating leases are charged in the SOFA on a straight line basis over the relevant lease terms. Any lease incentives are recognised over the lease term on a straight line basis.

7. Tangible fixed assets

Land is stated at cost. Buildings and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Expenditure on the acquisition, construction, or enhancement of land and on the acquisition, construction and enhancement of buildings which is directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, together with expenditure on equipment, is capitalised, subject to a minimum cost as follows:

Land and building acquisition no minimum cost New building construction and improvements £50,000 Plant & machinery £20,000 Other fixtures, fittings, and equipment £10,000

Where a part of a building or equipment is replaced and the costs capitalised, the carrying value of those parts replaced is derecognised and expensed in the SOFA.

Other expenditure on equipment incurred in the normal day-to-day running of the College is charged to the SOFA as incurred.

19

NEW COLLEGE

Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

8. Depreciation

Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of all relevant tangible fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, in equal annual instalments over their expected useful economic lives as follows:

Freehold properties, including major extensions 50 years (up to 100 years for new buildings)
Building improvements 30 years
Plant and machinery 10 years
Other equipment 4 - 10 years

Freehold land is not depreciated. The cost of maintenance is charged in the SOFA in the period in which it is incurred.

At the end of each reporting period, the residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and adjusted if necessary. In addition, if events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable then the carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment.

9. Heritage Assets

The College has chosen to hold heritage assets at cost. The college has a number of assets, including items of art and historic texts that meet the definition of heritage assets under the SORP. The depreciated historic cost of the majority of these items is nil. Items purchased are recognised at cost and items donated to the College are recognised at fair value. The college has taken advantage of the exemption within FRS 102 not to disclose transactions before 1 January 2015 as obtaining fair values for these assets would be impracticable and the cost of obtaining such valuations would outweigh the benefits to the users of these financial statements.

10. Investments

Investment properties are initially recognised at their cost and subsequently measured at their fair value (market value) at each reporting date. Purchases and sales of investment properties are recognised on exchange of contracts.

Listed investments are initially measured at their cost and subsequently measured at their fair value at each reporting date. Fair value is based on their quoted price at the balance sheet date without deduction of the estimated future selling costs. Investments such as hedge funds and private equity funds which have no readily identifiable market value are initially measured at their costs and subsequently measured at their fair value at each reporting date without deduction of the estimated future selling costs. Fair value is based on the most recent valuations available from their respective fund managers.

Other unquoted investments are valued using primary valuation techniques such as earnings multiples, recent transactions and net assets where reliable estimates can be made – otherwise at cost less any impairment.

Changes in fair value and gains and losses arising on the disposal of investments are credited or charged to the income or expenditure section of the SOFA as ‘gains or losses on investments’ and are allocated to the Fund holding or disposing of the relevant investment.

11. Other financial instruments

a. Derivatives

Derivative financial instruments are initially measured at fair value on the date the contract is entered into and are subsequently measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are credited or charged to the income or expenditure section of the SOFA. Hedge accounting is not currently applied to derivatives.

b. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash at banks and in hand and short term deposits with a maturity date of three months or less.

20

NEW COLLEGE Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

c. Debtors and creditors

Debtors and creditors receivable or payable within one year of the reporting date are carried at their at transaction price. Debtors and creditors that are receivable or payable in more than one year and not subject to a market rate of interest are measured at the present value of the expected future receipts or payment discounted at a market rate of interest.

12. Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, cost being the purchase price on a first in, first out basis.

13. Foreign currencies

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies during the year are translated into pounds sterling using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates applying at the reporting date.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the exchange rates at the reporting date are recognised in the income and expenditure section of the SOFA.

14. Total Return investment accounting

The College statutes authorise the College to adopt a ‘total return’ basis for the investment of its permanent endowment. The College can invest its permanent endowments without regard to the capital/income distinctions of standard trust law and with discretion to apply any part of the accumulated total return on the investment as income for spending each year. Until this power is exercised, the total return is accumulated as a component of the endowment known as the unapplied total return that can be either be retained for investment or release to income at the discretion of the Governing Body.

15. Fund accounting

The total funds of the College are allocated to unrestricted, restricted or endowment funds based on the terms set by the donors or set by the terms of an appeal. Endowment funds are further sub-divided into permanent and expendable.

Unrestricted funds can be used in furtherance of the objects of the College at the discretion of the Governing Body. The Governing Body may decide that part of the unrestricted funds shall be used in future for a specific purpose and this will be accounted for by transfers to appropriate designated funds.

Restricted funds comprise gifts, legacies, and grants where the donors have specified that the funds are to be used for particular purposes of the College. They consist of either gifts where the donor has specified that both the capital and any income arising must be used for the purposes given or the income on gifts where the donor has required that the capital be maintained and the income used for specific purposes within the College’s objects.

Permanent endowment funds arise where donors specify that the funds should be retained as capital for the permanent benefit of the College. Any part of the total return arising from the capital that is allocated to income will be accounted for as unrestricted funds unless the donor has placed restrictions on the use of that income, in which case it will be accounted for as a restricted fund.

Expendable endowment funds are similar to permanent endowment in that they have been given, or the College has determined based on the circumstances that they have been given, for the long-term benefit of the College. However, the Governing Body may, at its discretion, determine to spend all or part of the capital.

21

NEW COLLEGE Statement of Accounting Policies Year ended 31 July 2022

16. Pension costs

The College participates in Universities Superannuation Scheme and the University of Oxford Staff Pension Scheme. These schemes are hybrid pension schemes, providing defined benefits as well as benefits based on defined contributions. The assets of both schemes are each held in a separate trusteeadministered fund. Because of the mutual nature of the schemes the assets are not attributed to individual employers and scheme-wide contribution rates are set. The College is therefore exposed to actuarial risks associated with other employers’ employees and is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of either scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. As required by Section 28 of FRS 102 “Employee benefits”, the College therefore accounts for the schemes as if they were wholly defined contribution schemes. As a result, the amount charged to the SOFA represents the contributions payable to each scheme. Since the College has entered into agreements (the Recovery Plans) that determine how each employer within the schemes will fund the overall deficit, the college recognises a liability for the contributions payable that arise from the agreements (to the extent that they relate to the deficit) with related expenses recognised through the SOFA.

The costs of retirement benefits provided to employees of the College through the multi-employer defined Teachers’ Pension Scheme is accounted for as if it was a defined contribution scheme as information is not available to use defined benefit accounting in accordance with the requirements of FRS 102. The College's contributions to this scheme is recognised as a liability and an expense in the period in which the salaries to which the contributions relate are payable.

No assets are held under finance leases (2021: none).

The College has substantial long-held historic assets all of which are used in the course of the College’s teaching and research activities. These comprise listed buildings on the College site, together with their contents comprising works of art, ancient books and manuscripts and other treasured artefacts. Because of their age and, in many cases, unique nature, reliable historical cost information is not available for these assets and could not be obtained except at disproportionate expense. However, in the opinion of the Trustees the depreciated historical cost of these assets is now immaterial.

NEW COLLEGE Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 July 2022

11 HERITAGE ASSETS

The College's collection of medieval manuscript volumes and early printed books, as well as chattels and works of art, was started by William of Wykeham at its foundation in 1379. This collection has been supplemented by a steady (and continuing) stream of donated assets over the centuries, and by acquisition, with approximately 400 manuscript volumes and over 30,000 antiquarian books available to view by appointment, and a number of works of art on display around the College. These donated assets were given on the understanding that the College would preserve them and make them accessible to scholars and, where not constraining scholars' access to them, to the public. These heritage assets are held at cost, which in the Trustees' opinion is now immaterial. The Trustees consider the cost to obtain a valuation of these assets would not be commensurate with the benefit to the readers of the financial statements. Many of the works of art are on display in Hall, Chapel, and Ante-Chapel, which are normally open to members of the public on most days; however, the College was closed to the public throughout 2021 as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic, reopening to vistors in March 2022. Ancient manuscripts and books may be viewed by appointment.

Under the provisions of s30 University and College Estates Act 1925 (amended 1964), and in accordance with the policy of the Charity Commission under s26(4) Charities Act 2011, College has 'borrowed' some £22.4m from its permanent endowment capital for the repair, improvement and modernisation of its functional buildings. That sum is being repaid via a sinking or redemption fund at 3.5% over 40 years in accordance with s32 of the 1925 (1964) Act.

Endowment Fund transfers of £8.8m to Restricted and Unrestricted funds represents the total return from endowment assets. £2.6m is transferred from Restricted Funds to Unrestricted Funds (designated fixed assets), being donations used in the year to finance the Gradel Quadrangles development. £0.2m is transferred from Unrestricted General Fund to Endowment Funds, being the yearly repayment of borrowing from Endowment.

21 TRUSTEES' REMUNERATION

Those Fellows who are the trustees of the College for the purposes of charity law receive no remuneration for acting as charity trustees, but are paid by either or both of the College and the University for the academic services they provide to the College.

Most trustees of the College fall into the following categories:

There are four other trustees, three of whom (Bursar, Director of Development, and Home Bursar) work full-time on management and fund-raising; the fourth is the College's Chaplain.

No trustee receives any remuneration for acting as a trustee. However, those trustees who are also employees of the college receive salaries for their work as employees. These salaries are paid on external academic and academic-related scales and often are joint arrangements with the University of Oxford.

Some trustees are eligible for College housing schemes. Ten trustees lived in College-owned property and had a deduction from salary as 'rent'. Other trustees may be eligible for a housing allowance which is disclosed within the following salary figures. During the year, nine trustees lived in houses owned jointly with the College (2021: eight); one jointly-owned house was bought in the year (2021: one) and two were sold (2021: one).

Some trustees receive allowances for additional work carried out as part-time college officers (eg, Senior Tutor, Dean, Precentor, Sub-Warden). These amounts are included within the remuneration figures in the following table. The total remuneration and taxable benefits as shown below is £2,996k (2021: £2,851k). The total of pension contributions is £449k (2021: £423k).

The College Governing Body refers to a Remuneration Committee all aspects of the pay and allowances for the Warden and Fellows - this Remuneration Committee has a membership that is completely external to that of the Governing Body.

All trustees are employees of the college and receive remuneration.

All trustees, together with other senior employees, are eligible for private health insurance as part of their remuneration package. All trustees may eat at common table, as can all other employees who are entitled to meals while working.

Other transactions with trustees

No trustee claimed expenses for any work performed in discharge of duties as a trustee. See also note 28 - Related Party Transactions.

Key management remuneration

The total remuneration paid for the key management of College was £689k (2021: £627k). Key management is considered to be delivered by the Warden, Bursar, Dean, Head of New College School, Home Bursar, and Senior Tutor.

22 PENSION SCHEMES

The College participates in the Universities Superannuation Scheme ("the USS"), the University of Oxford Staff Pension Scheme ("the OSPS"), and the Teachers' Pension Scheme (the "TPS") on behalf its staff. The assets of each scheme are held in separate trustee-administered funds. USS and OSPS schemes are contributory mixed benefit schemes (i.e. they provide benefits on a defined benefit basis - based on length of service and pensionable salary - and on a defined contribution basis – based on contributions into the scheme). TPS is a contributory defined benefit scheme (i.e. it provides benefits based on length of service and pensionable salary).

Each scheme is a multi-employer scheme and the College is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities relating to defined benefits of each scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. Therefore, in accordance with the accounting standard FRS 102 paragraph 28.11, the College accounts for the schemes as if they were defined contribution schemes. As a result, the amount charged to the Statement of Financial Activities represents the contributions payable to the schemes in respect of the accounting period.

In the event of the withdrawal of any of the participating employers in USS or OSPS the amount of any pension funding shortfall (which cannot be otherwise recovered) in respect of that employer will be spread across the remaining participating employers and reflected in the next actuarial valuation of the scheme.

Schemes accounted for under FRS 102 paragraph 28.11 as defined contribution schemes

Actuarial valuations

Qualified actuaries periodically value USS and OSPS defined benefits using the ‘projected unit method’, embracing a market value approach. The resulting levels of contribution take account of actuarial surpluses or deficits in each scheme. The financial assumptions were derived from market conditions prevailing at the valuation date. The results of the latest actuarial valuations and the assumptions which have the most significant effect on the results were:

Fixed interest gilt yield curve plus: pre-retirement 2.75%, post-retirement 1.00%

Pre-retirement:

Pre-retirement: Equal to the UK nominal gilt curve at the valuation date plus 2.25% p.a. at each term. Post-retirement: Equal to the UK nominal gilt curve at the valuation date plus 0.5% p.a. at each term.

Term dependent rates in line with the difference between the Fixed Interest and Index Linked yield curves, less 1.1% p.a. to 2030, reducing linearly by 0.1% p.a. to a long term difference of 0.1% p.a. from 2040.

RPI inflation is derived from the geometric difference between the UK nominal gilt curve and the UK index-linked curve at the valuation date, less 0.3% p.a. at each term. CPI inflation is derived from the RPI inflation assumption, less the Scheme Actuary’s best estimate of the long-term difference between RPI and CPI inflation as applies from time to time (1.0% p.a. as at 31 March 2019).

For pension increases linked to inflation, a pension increase curve is constructed based on either the RPI, CPI or the average of the RPI and CPI inflation curves described above, adjusted to allow for the different maximum and minimum annual increases that apply, and the Scheme Actuary’s best estimate of inflation volatility as applies from time to time.

e. The USS and OSPS employer contribution rates include provisions for the cost of future accrual of defined benefits, deficit contributions, administrative expenses and defined contributions.

22 PENSION SCHEMES (continued)

Teachers' Pension Scheme

Members of the Teachers' Pensions Scheme contribute on a 'pay as you go' basis with contributions from members and the employer being credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament.

The employer contribution rate is set following scheme valuations undertaken by the Government Actuary Department, and was set at 16.4% following the 2012 scheme valuation. The latest valuation report in respect of the Scheme was prepared at 31 March 2016 and was published in 2019. This report determined the employer contribution rate of 23.68% from 1 September 2019 which will be payable until the next valuation as at 31 March 2020.

Sensitivity of actuarial valuation assumptions

Surpluses or deficits which arise at future valuations may impact on the College’s future contribution commitment. The sensitivities regarding the principal assumptions used to measure the scheme liabilities are set out below.

Assumption USS change in assumption Impact on USS liabilities
Initial pre-retirement discount rate increase by 0.25% decrease by £1.3bn
Post-retirement discount rate decrease by 0.25% increase by £2.8bn
CPI decrease by 0.1% decrease by £1.5bn
Life expectancy more prudent assumption (reduce the increase by £1.2bn
adjustment to the base mortality table by 5%)
Rate of mortality more prudent assumption (increase the increase by £0.6bn
annual mortality improvements' long-term
rates by0.2%)
Assumption OSPS change in assumption Impact on OSPS technical provisions
Valuation rate of interest decrease by 0.25% increase by £45m
RPI increase by 0.25% increase by £40m

Deficit recovery plans

In line with FRS 102 paragraph 28.11A, the College has recognised a liability for the contributions payable for the agreed deficit funding plans for USS and OSPS. The principal assumptions used in these calculations are tabled below:

Finish Date for Deficit Recovery Plan

A provision of £4,343k has been made at 31 July 2022 (2021: £2,175k) for the present value of the estimated future deficit funding element of the contributions payable under these agreements, using the assumptions shown.

Pension charge for the year

The pension charge recorded by the College during the accounting period (excluding pension finance costs) was equal to the contributions payable after allowance for the deficit recovery plan as follows:

23 TAXATION

The College is able to take advantage of the tax exemptions available to charities from taxation in respect of income and capital gains received to the extent that such income and gains are applied to exclusively charitable purposes. No liability to corporation tax arises in the College's subsidiary companies as the directors of these companies have indicated that they intend to make donations each year to the College equal to the taxable profits of the company under the Gift Aid scheme. Accordingly no provision for taxation has been included in the financial statements.

25 ANALYSIS OF CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

26 FINANCIAL COMMITMENTS

The College has an annual pensions commitment to a number of retired employees whose service predated the introduction of the main occupational schemes (see note 5). These payments, which are subject to annual inflationary increases, currently total £5,000 per annum, and the net present value of future payments is estimated to be of the order of £50,000.

The College had no non-cancellable operating leases during the year (2021: none).

27 CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

Contracted commitments at 31 July totalled £32,572k (2021: none). There were no non-cancellable operating leases during the year (2021: none).

28 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Members of the Governing Body, who are the trustees of the College and related parties as defined by FRS 102, receive remuneration and facilities as employees of the College. Details of these payments and reimbursed expenses as trustees are disclosed separately in these financial statements.

Three trustees had loans from the College during the year (three trustees had loans in 2021). The outstanding balances at 31 July were £4,979 (2021: £6,313). Interest is charged on the loans at HMRC's prevailing Official Rate of Interest, and the upper limit for such loans is £5,000.
