As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.
Program
Manufacturing/production - the innovation hub helps inventors, entrepreneurs, and manufacturers to design, prototype, build, test, and deliver new products. We have worked with a variety of companies and inventors to deliver successful prototypes and projects, and we work closely with some of arkansas's best designers and engineers to meet the needs of our clients. Manufacturing uses smart tools like 3d printers, cnc mills, injection molders, and laser cutters to automate and multiply the manufacturing process. Mass manufacturing is designed to create tens of thousands of a product. But, what if you only need a hundred or so items to launch your business?

Much of the work traditionally handled by manufacturing equipment can now be performed by 3d printers. The micromanufacturing process is more efficient, using fewer resources and allowing you to decide just how much product you need and when you need it. It's a combination of old world craftsmanship and 21st century technologies. Our production team offers 2d & 3d design services, and fabrication services using…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $5.1M to $0 (−100%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 53% · 2018 38% · 2019 18% · 2020 17% · 2021 75%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

2017 → 2022: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $239k → $54.
4 of 11 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 20% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of THE ARKANSAS REGIONAL INNOVATION HUB INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

THE ARKANSAS REGIONAL INNOVATION HUB INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 60% of grant income and the top three 79%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
83% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund THE ARKANSAS REGIONAL INNOVATION HUB INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 65% · 2020 29% · 2021 66% · 2022 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
33% of THE ARKANSAS REGIONAL INNOVATION HUB INC's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 36% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2022, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
91% of THE ARKANSAS REGIONAL INNOVATION HUB INC's grant income comes from Arkansas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $98k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
