Highlights

The Highlands Community Association Inc, a Scottsdale-based tax-exempt organization with EIN 841967796, took in $1,441,654 in revenue during tax year 2023, an 81% increase over the $795,063 it reported in TY2022, according to IRS Form 990 data published by ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer.

The revenue surge did not translate to financial strength. Expenses reached $1,708,534 in TY2023, outpacing income by $266,880 and leaving the organization with a year-end asset base of $465,822. That figure represents a drop of roughly $189,000 from the $654,681 in assets the association held at the close of TY2022.

The prior year told a different story: in TY2022, the organization ran a surplus, with $795,063 in revenue against only $413,450 in expenses. The reversal in TY2023 raises questions about what drove both the sharp revenue increase and the steeper rise in spending.

Officer compensation was reported as $0 in both TY2022 and TY2023, placing the association outside the watchdog threshold of executive pay exceeding 15% of revenue.

The underlying 990 filing, available through ProPublica, would detail the specific revenue sources and expense categories behind the swing. The Signal will continue monitoring future filings for this organization.
