Farmway announces
Annual Meeting date
Farmway Co-op, Inc.
has announced the date of July 23rd, 2009 for the Cooperative’s Annual Meeting.
It will be held in Beloit at the NCK Technical College Student Union
Building and the NCK Wellness Center Gymnasium beginning at 6 p.m.
Normally Farmway Co-op has conducted its Annual Meeting in April, but due to an extra
accounting process that took place this year, the meeting was delayed.
The extra accounting process was needed to conslidate the financial statements of both
Farmway Co-op and AgMark, LLC. This was based on the fact that during the Auditors annual
test of an accounting rule interpretation (FIN 46R) it was determined the financial
statements of both companies were required to be consolidated.
Farmway Co-op, Inc. had an excellent year financially, the best in the
Cooperative’s history due to increased revenue in almost all facets of Farmway’s
core businesses.
Art Duerksen, Farmway Co-op CEO, will be sharing with the patrons the sound financial
condition of their Cooperative at the Annual Meeting on July 23rd.
Annual Meeting Notices will be sent to the membership in early July.
