REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Independent Auditor's Report

County Commissioners

County of Adams

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

Page 1

We have audited, in accordance with the 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 (Government Auditing Standards), the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated June 29, 2026. Our report includes a reference to other auditors who audited the financial statements of the Adams County Industrial Development Authority and the Adams County Conservation District, as described in our report on the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's financial statements. The financial statements of the Adams County Industrial Development Authority was not audited in accordance with Government Auditing Standards. This report does not include the results of the other auditors' testing of internal control over financial reporting or compliance and other matters that are reported on separately by those auditors.

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing 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 COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA'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 or significant deficiencies may exist that have not been identified.

County of Adams Page 2

Report on Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA'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 financial statements. 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.

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 entity'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 entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL AND PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES PROGRAM, REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE AND THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES SINGLE AUDIT SUPPLEMENT, AND REPORT ON THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE

Independent Auditor's Report

Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal and Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Program

Opinion on Each Major Federal and DHS Program

We have audited the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's compliance with the types of compliance requirements identified as subject to audit in the OMB Compliance Supplement and the PA Department of Human Services (“DHS”) Single Audit Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's major federal and DHS programs for the year ended December 31, 2025. The COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's major federal and DHS programs are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.

In our opinion, the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal and DHS programs for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal and DHS Program

We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS); the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards); the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and the PA DHS Single Audit Supplement. Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.

We are required to be independent of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal and DHS program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above.

County of Adams Page 4

Responsibilities of Management for Compliance

Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's federal and DHS programs.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's compliance based on our audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS, Government Auditing Standards, the Uniform Guidance, and the PA DHS Single Audit Supplement, will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material, if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's compliance with the requirements of each major federal and DHS program as a whole.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, Government Auditing Standards, the Uniform Guidance and the PA DHS Single Audit Supplement, we:

  • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
  • Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
  • Obtain an understanding of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and the PA DHS Single Audit Supplement, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit.

County of Adams Page 5

Report on Internal Control over Compliance

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal or DHS program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal or DHS program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal or DHS program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified.

Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance and the PA DHS Single Audit Supplement. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance

We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA's basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated June 29, 2026, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.

Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the schedule of expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

COUNTY OF ADAMS, PENNSYLVANIA NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025

NOTE 1: REPORTING ENTITY

The County of Adams, Pennsylvania (the "County") as the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes is defined in Note 1 to the County's financial statements.

  • Adams County Industrial Development Authority
  • Adams County Conservation District

Direct awards pertaining to these entities have been excluded from the accompanying schedules principally because the County is not directly involved in maintaining the accounting records or systems of internal accounting and administrative controls for these entities. Where applicable, these entities have arranged for the issuance of separate Single Audit Reports containing their audited financial statements and schedule of expenditures of federal awards and all required audit reports.

Except as indicated above, the accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards present the activity of all federal award programs of the County.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented using the modified accrual basis of accounting, which is described in Note 1 to the County's financial statements. The County did not use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate.

NOTE 3: RISK-BASED AUDIT APPROACH

The 2025 threshold for determining Type A programs is $1,000,000.

The following Type A programs were audited as major programs:

ALProgram
14.228Community Development Block Grant
