City Council Staff Report DATE: JANUARY 10, 2024 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT FINANCE DIVISION DISTRICT: ALL SUBJECT: RECEIVE AND FILE THE MONTHLY INVESTMENT ACTIVITY REPORT FOR NOVEMBER 2023 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file the monthly investment activity report for the City of Palmdale and Successor Agency for November 2023. BACKGROUND Pursuant to Section 16 of the City of Palmdale and Successor Agency Investment Policy, the City Treasurer shall prepare and present monthly and quarterly reports on investments to the City Manager/Executive Director and the City Council/Directors. The reports shall detail the type of investment, name of the issuer, purchase date, date of maturity, amount of deposit, and rate of interest. This information shall be provided for all City and Successor Agency pooled investments, as well as for Certificates of Participation, Revenue Bonds, Tax Allocation Bonds, Assessment Districts, and Community Facilities District accounts, which are managed by outside Fiscal Agents. The monthly investment reports provide a synopsis of the investment activity for the City of Palmdale and Successor Agency. The reports provide information on assets, allocations, average maturities, yields, and book valuations. The interest rates presented are the most current rates available as of the date of this report. The market values presented for pooled City and Successor Agency investments are based on closing prices for the related investment as of the date of this report. This information was obtained from the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Financial Markets, Capital Market Finances, or other reliable sources of market prices. DISCUSSION Compliance with Investment Policy For November, the invested portfolio amount for the City of Palmdale totaled $306,128,068, a decrease of $4,933,057 from the previous month, and an increase of $20,487,809 in comparison to last year. The monthly decrease is primarily the result of a withdrawal from LAIF during the month to cover debt service and operating expenses.

Report to Mayor and City Council Re: Monthly Investment Reports January 10, 2024 Page 2 The par value of Successor Agency’s portfolio as of November was $7,955,102. The balance increased by $6,102 from last month due to earned interest during the month. All investments meet criteria appropriate to Section 8 of the Investment Policy. The portfolios are based on a combination of various investments, including CDs, Corporate Notes, U.S. Treasury Securities, and Government Agency Paper, each adhering to portfolio percentage limitations. The Finance Division is the custodian for the City and Successor Agency’s investment portfolio and follows the three main principles of both entities’ investment policies to 1) Investment in financial instruments that mitigate the risk of monetary losses stemming from market fluctuations; 2) Establish and maintain a portfolio that has sufficient liquidity to allow the City and Successor Agency to meet all anticipated cash requirements; and 3) Seek out investment instruments that provide a competitive market rate of return. Liquidity One core approach the Finance Division focuses on is providing liquidity to measure up to the City and Successor Agency’s operational requirements. Thus, the Finance Division is currently investing in two pooled funds, Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and California Asset Management Program (CAMP). These are intended for daily operational activities and used for economic uncertainties and maintenance needs. The pooled funds provide a higher liquidity ratio to ensure the City and Successor Agency meet cash flow requirements. The total LAIF balance for the City of Palmdale at the end of November is $128,703,931. The decrease of $5,000,000 from the prior month is due to a withdrawal to general fund for the payment of debt service and other operating expenses. Successor Agency LAIF balance at the end of November was $6,215,832. A decrease of $900,000 from the prior month was due to debt service payments made during the month. CAMP’s balance for City of Palmdale at the end of November was $265,347 compared to October balance of $264,136. The slight increase is due to interest earned during the month. The interest rates presented are the most current rates available as of the date of this report. As of November 30, 2023, the interest rates for LAIF and CAMP investments were at 3.843 percent and 5.58 percent, respectively. By comparison, the LAIF and CAMP interest rates at the end of October were at 3.670 percent and 5.56 percent. Both rates have slightly increased within this month. This time last year, LAIF and CAMP rates were at 2.007 percent and 3.90, respectively.

Report to Mayor and City Council Re: Monthly Investment Reports January 10, 2024 Page 3 The chart above shows both the Local Agency Investment Fund and California Asset Management Program’s average monthly yields beginning February 2023 through November 2023. We anticipate that rates will remain consistent, with only minor variations in the upcoming months. The difference between the performance of the two funds is partly due to the varying pool characteristics. CAMP's portfolio composition is much more prone to market volatility, resulting in performance variations. Diversity The Finance Division aims to diversify the investment portfolios to avoid incurring unreasonable and avoidable risks regarding specific security types or individual financial institutions. The City of Palmdale and Successor Agency’s investment portfolios remain strongly diversified. The monthly report includes all investments held by both entities and current book values as of November 30, 2023. It is anticipated that both the City of Palmdale and Successor Agency will have sufficient sums of money to meet their expenditure requirements for the next six months. The Finance Division will continue to monitor current economic conditions and the impact on interest rates.
