  6. 2003 ReviewPlanning Process & Program Review

  7. 2003 Program Planning ProcessPhased Approach • May - July: 1st phase ISOC’s Planning Process • Phase I: Q3/Q4 ‘03 - Programs =Bid-defined and infrastructure building (largely based on existing plans) • Directional statements prepared by ExComm, ISOC staff, VP’s, etc. • Input and reviews with PIR Chair, PIR President and PIR Board to enable both orgs. to begin funding programs. • ISOC BoT Review - July 2003 • Phase II: 2004 & beyond = strategic planning process began June, on-going • Note: Funding expected from multiple sources: .org, existing Platinums and new Platinums: Sida, Afilias, etc. BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  8. 2003 Program Funding: A Recap • ISOC’s 2003 budget (dev’d prior to start of PIR operations) expected total available for programs of $422K. Net cont’n. from PIR (after dir. exp.) of $170K. • In April, PIR donated $200K to ISOC for Open (RFC) Standards activities and $100K for Education Program Dev’t. • Educ. Grant enabled ISOC to hire 2 prog. Mgrs (per budget) • In July PIR resolved to contribute an add’l.$800K to ISOC for program development, bringing total to $1.1M! • New Platinum members also aided program efforts: Sida, Afilias BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  9. Program Planning Process Key Programs - Q3/Q4’03 Italics = Phase II BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  10. Annualized Forecast - Sept. 032003 Program Fund Disposition - K$ .ORG & All ‘Program’ Funding - $1.7M .ORG Funds $1.1M $200K $420K $513K $620K $503K $603K BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  11. Recap: .ORG Division of Responsibilities • PIR: • manage registry, set registry policy, develop new products & services, registrar relations, marketing, communications, Advisory Council, etc. • ISOC: • program dev’t. & marketing outreach building on ISOC’s established knowledge, credibility and channels • Afilias: • back-end service provider Source: ISOC President’s Report: ISOC - PIR Joint Board meeting November 2002 BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  12. 2003 Key changes: Program Funding vs. Budget • In October PIR President and Chair indicated they expect an add’l $700K to be available in December ‘03 • Assuming PIR Board approval, ISOC will recognize this additional revenue in 2003 as a donation (due to now common understanding on roles). • Projected Program Funding in 2003: • Platinums: $ 0.5M • .org : $ 1.8M (from $422k in budget) • Note: 2003 = start-up year for PIR and additional .org funding VERY welcome but has made planning and operating to original budget more difficult BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  13. 2003 Key Changes Operating Model • With increased funding, comes increased deliverables and increased expectations. • With significant injection of funds, (many) programs and new resources (internal & external), all ISOC processes and systems under pressure to evolve (while delivering). • Volunteer model is, not at all unexpectedly, under some pressure - mainly affecting VP structure. • ISOC must move to a more business-like structure. Altogether transition is working well, but not w/o some start-up problems. • 2004 Budget = critical review of infra-structure reqmt’s. BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  14. Internet Society Board of Trustees2003Financial Review 8 November 2003 BoT Meeting/ Minneapolis, MN

  15. 2003 Year End Forecastfrom July ‘03 BoT • Revenues • Organizations: challenging target, today’s running rate = $0.8M vs.budget of $1.3M. Reminder - at a P&L level this means we need to bring in approx. $1.5M in new org. member revenues before year end, unless Platinum • Platinum revenue: expect to meet or exceed budget • Program revenues expected to offset any organizational member shortfall and will have significant added benefit of increasing ISOC’s visibility, thereby aiding future org. member recruitment efforts • Nov. ‘03 Update = Commentary above still valid today, and .org revenues continue to increase significantly BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  16. 2003 Year End Forecast (cont’d)from July ‘03 BoT • Expenses • Non .org Expenses are on track (in fact are under budget), but .org expenses will be higher given higher level of surplus avail. for programs - however they will also be net positive • Revenue recognition tied to expenses • ISOC’s PIR governance - related expenses to be recouped • Cost savings budget of $126K on track (and better than original target of $100K) • Nov. ‘03 Update:PIR’s contributions to be donations and recognized immediately given (now) common understanding of model. All else consistent w/ above. BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  17. 2003 Year End Forecast (cont’d)from July ‘03 BoT • Summary • Org. Revenues continues to be very aggressive given economic and world conditions, therefore actively positioning .org surplus/programs to better and more broadly position ISOC & PIR for the future. • Fully expect to meet budgeted surplus. • Working to further diversify our revenue stream: Seinit (thanks to Latif Ladid ), US Cybersecurity & EU security efforts, etc. • Nov ‘03 Update: Commentary above still valid today. BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt

  18. Going forwardfrom July ‘03 BoT • Board support/commitment • Suggest I contact each board member individually to see how they can support fundraising, how staff can help, etc. • Goal is additional $50K min. per Trustee. Success here would mean another $750,000 and would make an ENORMOUS difference in operations. • Continue relentless focus on Costs and Revenues • Identify and pursue new creative revenue streams and roles for ISOC consistent with our values & purposes • Success of .org initiative shows potential for such opportunities • Nov ‘03 Update: Fundraising efforts in Point 1 above seriously behind. All others still valid today. BoT Pres. Rpt Nov03.ppt
