Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan (the “Plan” and formerly known as the Artesian Resources Corporation Retirement Plan) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively, the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plan’s management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Supplemental Information
The supplemental information in the accompanying schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2022 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but included supplemental information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan
Note A - Description of the Plan
1. | General | |
Effective July 1, 1984, Artesian Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "Plan Sponsor" or "Employer") established the Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "Plan" and formerly known as the Artesian Resources Corporation Retirement Plan) as a defined contribution retirement plan for its employees, subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 401(k), the Plan permits employees to exclude contributions to the Plan from their current taxable income, subject to certain limits. The Plan is administered by an Administrative Committee, which consists of six members appointed by the Company's Board of Directors. As part of our transition to new record keeper services with Empower Retirement, LLC (“Empower”) in December 2021, Empower Trust Company, LLC (formerly known as Great West Trust Company, LLC) was a co-fiduciary of the Plan within the meaning of 3(21) of ERISA during the year 2022. Plan administration expenses may be paid out of the Plan unless paid by the Company. The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. | ||
2. | Participation and Vesting | |
All employees age 18 and over are eligible for Plan participation immediately after their date of hire. Employees may elect to make tax-deductible contributions up to the IRC limitation, including "catch-up" contributions for participants age 50 and older. Participants are also able to designate part or all of their contributions as Roth 401(k) contributions, which are made on an after-tax basis. For every dollar an employee contributes up to 6% of compensation, the Company will provide a 50% matching contribution. In each Plan year, the Company may make discretionary quarterly and annual contributions to the Plan for all employees eligible to participate in the Plan. The Company made discretionary quarterly contributions to the Plan equal to 2% of quarterly compensation for each of the four quarters of 2022. | ||
The Company also sponsored another defined contribution plan for its employees, the Supplemental Plan, which was merged into the Plan on March 31, 2000. The contribution and vesting guidelines for the participants of the Supplemental Plan are continued and consist of the following: | ||
•Only employees as of April 26, 1994 are eligible for participation in the Supplemental Plan. | ||
•A 6% service contribution is made by the Company to the Plan for all eligible participants each quarter based upon each participant’s quarterly compensation. | ||
•Service contributions and the associated earnings originally vested over a graded period of service, but are now fully vested for all active participants. | ||
The total matching, discretionary and service contributions in 2022 were approximately $625,000, $418,000 and $205,000, respectively. | ||
The Company's Board of Directors, at its sole discretion, may make a Special Discretionary Stock Contribution to the Plan. A Special Discretionary Stock Contribution was not made for 2022 and has not been made since 2007. | ||
The trust maintains separate accounts for each participant in the Plan. These accounts are credited with the participants' contributions and Plan earnings and may be charged with certain administrative expenses. Participant contributions, and the related earnings, are fully vested. Company contributions, and the related earnings, vest as follows: | ||

Note A - Description of the Plan (Continued)
2. | Participation and Vesting (Continued) | ||||||
Years of Service | Vested Percentage | ||||||
Less than 2 | 0 | % | |||||
2 but less than 3 | 20 | % | |||||
3 but less than 4 | 40 | % | |||||
4 but less than 5 | 60 | % | |||||
5 but less than 6 | 80 | % | |||||
6 years or more | 100 | % | |||||
Any forfeitures of non-vested contributions may be offset against Company contributions or Plan administration expenses. As of December 31, 2022, forfeited non-vested accounts were approximately $56,000 and approximately $58,000 was applied to reduce the Plan Sponsor’s contribution obligations. As of December 31, 2021, forfeited non-vested accounts were nominal. | |||||||
3. | Investment Elections | ||||||
All future discretionary Company contributions, as well as all prior discretionary contributions and the corresponding earnings, are participant directed. | |||||||
Participants may allocate basic contributions among the various investment options, including the Company's Class A non-voting common stock. | |||||||
The Plan has an automatic enrollment feature for newly hired and/or rehired employees to help employees save for retirement by reducing their compensation automatically with an initial pre-tax contribution of eligible compensation, as defined in the Plan document. The initial pre-tax contribution rate of the automatic enrollment feature is 6%. This amount is deemed as the Participant's Employee Savings Contribution election if the Participant does not elect to defer a greater or lesser percentage of compensation, or elects to receive cash in lieu of making any Employee Savings Contribution, within 90 days after employment. Any automatic deferral contributions made and any corresponding matching contributions are placed in a default investment fund as selected by the Administrative Committee, and Participants may modify the investment allocation of these contributions in the same manner as any other Plan contributions. Employees may elect to opt out from participating in the Plan, or they may elect to defer more or less than the 6% default contribution as well as choose their own investment elections offered in multiples of 1% with a minimum investment of 1% in any selected investment. |

Note A - Description of the Plan (Continued)
4. | Participants' Notes Receivable | |
Participants may borrow from the Plan under the following guidelines: | ||
•A participant may borrow from the Plan only on account of hardship, for one of the 401(k) safe harbor hardship distribution reasons described in the applicable Federal Treasury regulations. | ||
•A participant may borrow as much as 50% of his or her vested account balance, subject to certain minimum and maximum limitations as defined in the Plan. | ||
•Loans are repaid over a period not to exceed five years, unless the loan is to buy, build, or substantially rehabilitate the borrower's principal residence. | ||
•The participant's account balance is secured as collateral when the loan is executed. If a participant defaults on a loan, the loan is treated as a distribution from the Plan to the participant. | ||
•Interest rates on loans are prime plus 1% at the date of the loan. Interest rates on outstanding balances ranged from 4.25% to 9.25% as of December 31, 2022. | ||
•As loans are repaid to the Plan, the total payment, principal plus interest, is credited back to the participant's account. | ||
5. | Benefits | |
Participants are entitled to a benefit payment equal to the vested amount credited to their accounts upon retirement, upon permanent disability, at age 59 ½, in the case of certain financial hardships outlined in the Plan document, or upon termination of employment or death. In the event of death of a participant, a death benefit payment is made to the participant's beneficiary. The normal form of distribution under the Plan is a single lump sum distribution in cash or stock. Alternate forms of distributions effective as of December 15, 2021 include installment payments over the life expectancy of a participant and/or beneficiary and periodic distributions at any time, including after the start of any installment payments. | ||
The Plan allows participants who take hardship distributions to continue to make employee pre-tax salary deferral and employee after-tax Roth contributions to the Plan. | ||

Note A - Description of the Plan (Continued)
6. | Plan Termination | |
Although it has not expressed the intent to do so, the Company may amend or terminate the Plan. In the event of Plan termination, the accounts of all participants affected shall become fully vested and non-forfeitable. Assets remaining in the Plan may be immediately distributed to the participants, inactive participants, and beneficiaries in proportion to their respective account balances; or the trust may be continued with distributions made at such time and in such manner as though the Plan had not been terminated. | ||
7. | Administrative Expenses | |
Administrative expenses are billed as a per participant fee and paid directly by the Employer. Individual participant fees such as loan and distribution fees are charged to participant accounts. Former employee participant accounts are charged the administrative participant fee plus all individual participant fees. Management fees and operating expenses charged to the Plan for investments in the mutual funds are deducted from income earned on a daily basis and are not separately reflected. Consequently, management fees and operating expenses are reflected as a reduction of investment return for such investments. |
Note B - Significant Accounting Policies
1. | Basis of Accounting | |
The Plan's financial statements are presented using the accrual method of accounting in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. | ||
2. | Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||
3. | Investment Valuation and Income Recognition | |
Plan assets held in mutual funds (shares of registered investment companies) and the Company's Class A non-voting common stock are unsecured and are traded on national securities exchanges. Mutual funds and common stock are valued at quoted market prices at December 31, 2022 and 2021. | ||
Plan assets held in a common collective trust are unsecured and are valued at net asset value (“NAV”). The common collective trusts represent investments in the T. Rowe Price Stable Value Fund. NAV is determined by T. Rowe Price based on the fair value of the underlying securities held by the common collective trust. Investments that calculate NAV per share (or its equivalent), but for which the practical expedient is not applied, are included in the fair value hierarchy along with the related required disclosures. |

Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
Note B - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
3. | Investment Valuation and Income Recognition (continued) | |
In accordance with the policy of stating investments at fair value, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for the year is included in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits and includes the Plan's gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. | ||
4. | Participants' Notes Receivable | |
Participant loans are classified as participants' notes receivable, and are measured at the unpaid principal balance plus unpaid accrued interest. The Plan classifies loans in default for various events, including failure to pay timely installments. Defaulted loans are deemed distributed and recorded as benefits paid to participants in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits. In 2022, approximately $10,000 were recorded as deemed distributions. | ||
5. | Contributions | |
Participant contributions and related employer contributions are recorded in the period that the compensation is paid to the participant. | ||
6. | Benefit Payments and Participant Distributions | |
Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution. | ||
7. | Income Taxes | |
Effective December 15, 2021, the Company restated the Plan utilizing the Ft. William Volume Submitter Adoption Agreement including custom language (the “Restated Plan”). The custom language changes did not convert the Restated Plan into an individually designed plan, however, on May 6, 2022, the Company requested an updated favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service “IRS” regarding the qualified status of the Restated Plan. A favorable determination letter was received from the IRS on September 1, 2022. No provision for income taxes has been included in the financial statements. | ||
The Plan Sponsor has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan and has concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, no uncertain tax positions are taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, currently no audits are in progress for any tax periods. |

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
8. | Cash and Cash Equivalents | |
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less. | ||
Note C – Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participant account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
Several factors, including economic influences and inflation trends have led to extreme volatility in financial markets and have affected, and may continue to affect, the market price of Artesian Resources Corporation’s Class A non-voting common stock and other Plan investments. While the potential impact brought by, and the duration of, these factors may be difficult to assess or predict, they could result in significant disruption of global financial markets. The extent to which these factors impact the financial markets will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Note D – Investments
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements, defined fair value, established a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. This framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are as follows:
• | Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Plan has the ability to access; |
• | Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or |
• | Level 3: inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
11
Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
Note D – Investments (Continued)
The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Plan's assets at fair value as of December 31:

Artesian 401(k) Retirement Plan
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
Note D – Investments (Continued)
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies for the Plan assets measured at fair value.
Mutual Funds – This class consists of publicly traded mutual funds. The fair value of these investments is determined by reference to the fair value of the underlying securities of the mutual funds. The NAV of the mutual fund's shares is quoted on the exchange where the fund is traded and therefore classified as a Level 1 investment.
Artesian Common Stock –This class consists of Artesian Common Stock Class A non-voting shares and is valued at the quoted market price from a national securities exchange. Artesian Common Stock is classified as a Level 1 investment.
Common Collective Trust – This class consists of commingled funds that primarily invests in domestic fixed income securities, money market funds and investment contracts issued by insurance companies and other financial institutions and seeks to preserve principal investment while earning interest income. The NAV of the common collective trust is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient would not be used if it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different from the reported NAV. The common collective trust allows for daily redemption and investments in the common collective fund and does not have a participant level holding period. There are no unfunded commitments for investments in the common collective trust. The common collective trusts represent investments in the T. Rowe Price Stable Value Fund.
Note E – Distributions Payable
Amounts allocated to withdrawing participants are reported on the Schedule H of Form 5500 for benefit claims that have been processed and approved for payment prior to December 31, but not yet paid as of that date. | ||
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no net assets available for plan benefits for distributions to participants who have requested a distribution from the Plan prior to the end of the Plan year. |
Note F – Related Party and Party in Interest Transactions
Artesian Resources Corporation and its employees are parties-in-interest to the Plan. On December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Plan's assets included $9,445,622 and $7,903,893, respectively, of Artesian Resources Corporation Class A non-voting stock and $268,190 and $277,576, respectively, of participant notes receivable. Empower and its affiliates serve as the Plan’s recordkeeper and trustee/custodian and, as such, administrative fees recorded of $9,719 qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Transactions in these assets are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules. |
Note G – Subsequent Events
Plan management evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and has determined that there are no subsequent events that require disclosure.
