The Statement of Operations (STOP) is a compilation of various financial statements to provide a financial picture of the fairground’s operational activities and capital expenditures.

The submission of an annual STOP is a requirement to maintain the fairgrounds' eligibility to receive funds and utilize state assets. The financial information in the STOP for the District Agricultural Associations (DAAs) is compiled into a set of financial statements and submitted to the State Controller's Office (SCO) to be used in preparing the State’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The ACFR is a set of governmental financial statements comprising the financial report of the state.
