What Colorado Independent Liquor Stores United Inc does
Mission
Represent the best interests of Colorado bars, restaurants, liquor stores and other liqour license holders.
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990.
Program
CLBA engages the services of Colorado lobbying firms to lobby for the best interests of small business owners who hold a Colorado Liquor License. One such objective was to try to defeat a CO Bill to grant super markets a license to sell beer and wine in their stores.
The program described on its FY2023 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $95k to $71k (−26%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
0% of Colorado Independent Liquor Stores United Inc’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (77% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.
