Comparison of Six Months of Public Agency Debt Issuance Activity 2018 vs. 2019

Diana Yang, Policy Research Unit

Over the first two quarters of calendar year 2019, debt reported by state and local agencies to the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission (CDIAC) totaled $31.9 billion. As reflected in Figure 1, issuance for 2019 thus far is down approximately 4.4 percent from the $33.4 billion issued in 2018. Municipal issuance nationwide stands at $168.3 billion of as June 30, 2019. This report compares issuance activity for the first six months of 2019 to the same period in 2018 (Review Period).

NEW MONEY V. REFUNDING

ALL ISSUERS. Figure 2 compares new money to refunding issuance activity for all issuers statewide for the Review Period. For 2019, new money issuance decreased approximately 15 percent while refunding activity increased 20 percent over the prior year.

STATE VERSUS LOCAL COMPARISON. Figure 3 breaks down longterm debt issuance activity by issuer type (state, local) and by issuance activity (new money, refunding) for the Review Period. Local issuance activity (refunding and new money) increased 3.3 percent in 2019, while issuance activity by the state is down approximately 22.8 percent from 2018. The decrease in total state issuance activity is attributable to the decrease in new money issuance by state issuers in 2019. Local agency

new money issuance also registered a slight decrease of 0.2 percent from 2018. Refunding activity by state and local issuers rebounded with double-digit increases from 2018.

DEBT ISSUANCE BY PURPOSE

Figure 4 groups debt issuance activity for state and local issuers for the Review Period by purpose. Of the purpose categories reported, Capital Improvements and Public Works continues to remain the top purpose category by volume in the first half of 2019 with $13.3 billion, followed by Education at $10.1 billion and Interim financing at $4.6 billion.

The purpose category Commercial and Industrial Development had the largest increase, 1,127 % from 2018. The increase is attributed to the California Pollution Control Finance Authority (CPCFA), which has issued $171,275,000 thus far in 2019 - a significant increase over their 2018 issuance activity. Redevelopment experienced the largest decrease in the first half of 2019, down 90% from 2018 - redevelopment is down both by volume as well as number of deals as redevelopment related activities and issuance continue to wind down in the state.

DEBT TYPE ISSUANCE ACTIVITY

Figure 5 categorizes issuance activity for the Review Period by debt type. Of the twenty-one debt type categories reported to CDIAC, general obligation bonds had the highest volume issued at $11.5 billion, a 10 percent increase over the prior year. Based on percentage change over the prior year, the top three categories with the

largest increases are bond anticipation notes (listed in the "Other" category) with a 217 percent increase, percent gain, sales tax revenue bonds with almost a 71 percent gain and conduit revenue bonds with a 52.4 increase over the prior year. Categories that experienced the sharpest percentage decline from 2018 are tax allocation bonds with a loss of 91 percent, special assessment bonds (listed in the "Other" category) down 48 percent, and

public enterprises revenue bonds down 27.7 percent.

Filing Tips: The Annual Debt Transparency Report (ADTR)

With the recent close of the 2018-19 fiscal year, many local agency and finance personnel are preparing for the next round of filings of the CDIAC Annual Debt Transparency Report pursuant to California SB 1029 (Chapter 307, Statutes of 2016).

While the next deadline for filing isn't until January 31st, 2020, insights gained from the first two years of ADTR filings can prove helpful for both first-year and returning filers:

1. DON'T OVERLOOK LINE G IN SECTION I

The field marked "Proceeds Used to Acquire Local Obligations" is designed to streamline ADTR filings for debt issued pursuant to the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act. Entering the appropriate value here will reduce or "zero out" reportable proceeds on report of JPA-issued bond or other debt to preclude the "doubling" of expenditure reporting on associated reports for local obligations, leases, or purchase agreements.

SEPTEMBER 2019

5

2. THE "BEGINNING OF THE REPORTING PERIOD" IS JULY 1ST OF THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR

For first-year filings ? meaning those ADTRs on issues for which no report has been filed previously ? the filer must enter a value in Section II, Line D. This line calls for "Debt Authorized" as of July 1st of the fiscal year (defined as 7/1/YYYY through 6/30/YYYY) indicated in the upper left of the form. For example, if in the upper left of the online form it says "Information as of Reporting Year End: June 30, 2019" then the Beginning of the Reporting Period is 7/1/2018 through 6/30/2019. Often, the amount entered in Line D will be the same as the prepopulated amount in Section II Line A (Original Authorized Amount), but it shall not be greater.

3. SECTION III, LINE B ? "ACCRETED" VS. "ACCRUED" INTEREST

Generally, the ADTR is designed to track only the outstanding principal balance of debt issued, not interest or other adjustments which may be included in a financing. However, capital appreciation bonds (CABs) present a case in which the principal amount changes over the life of the bond by the accretion of interest which is then added to the initial principal. Line B in Section III allows filers to update the principal amount of a CAB from year to year by entering the accreted interest. Interest accrued, i.e. calculated separately from principal,

should not be entered in this field. If the debt issue being reported is NOT a capital appreciation bond, leave Line B in Section III blank.

4. CLICK THE "ADD FUND" BUTTON IN SECTION V.B. (PROCEEDS SPENT/ UNSPENT)

After selecting a Fund Category and entering the associated dollar value in the "Total Reportable Proceeds Available" field, it can be easy to assume the section is complete, especially with issues for which all proceeds have one application (e.g. refunding bonds). However, attempting to submit a report with only a category selected and a dollar amount entered will generate an error message. After entering the dollar amount under "Total Reportable Proceeds" be sure to click the Add Fund button (figure 1) located on the left side of the screen, to the left of the Fund Category and Total Proceeds fields. The fund category and amount will then be indicated in the itemized list as shown in (figure 2).

FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2

5. CLICK THE "ADD DETAILS" BUTTON IN SECTION V.C. (EXPENDITURE OF PROCEEDS)

After selecting a Fund Category and entering the associated Purpose and dollar value in the "Expenditure In Current Period" field, it can be easy to assume the section is complete, especially with issues for which all proceeds have one application (e.g. refunding bonds). However, attempting to submit a report with only a category, purpose, and dollar amount entered will generate an error message. After entering the dollar

FIGURE 3

SEPTEMBER 2019

amount under "Expenditure" be sure to click the Add Details button (figure 3) located on the left side of the screen, to the left of the Fund Category, Purpose, and amount fields. The expenditure detail and amount will then be indicated in the itemized list as shown in (figure 4).

FIGURE 4

6. BEWARE OF "NEGATIVITY"

Many ADTRs have been submitted with an item or items in Sections V.B. ("Fund") or V.C. ("Expenditure") with a negative dollar amount. Usually these were entered by the filer to indicate a "credit" ? to increase fund balances shown or increase the amount of reportable proceeds. For example, a negative dollar amount is entered and indicated as "transfer from prior reserve fund" with the intent of showing a particular (i.e. sufficient) amount applied to the refunding of prior debt. In other cases, a negative "interest dividend" is entered to adjust an amount of proceeds shown as remaining or "unspent", presumably to match a standing balance reported elsewhere.

The idea behind the ADTR is to track the proceeds of issued debt (i.e. borrowed money) on a per issue basis only ? with the understanding that even though

the report itself might refer to, say, an "escrow account", it is not meant to mirror other financial disclosure documents which may be produced by an issuer, such as a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

(CAFR). The year-to-year subtotaling functionality of the form is designed to track only those proceeds received at time of issue, such that deductions ? and not balance adjustments ? are reported yearly until the to-

tals are reduced to zero. CDIAC understands the concerns of filers and the reasons certain items are included or reported a particular way, however our aim is to maintain a dataset free of "negative expenditures".

If you have any questions or need assistance in completing the report, please contact the CDIAC Data Unit by email at CDIAC_Issuance@

treasurer. or by phone at (916) 653-3269.
