California controller says state revenues beat expectations for June, 2017-18 fiscal year

SACRAMENTO – State Controller Betty T. Yee reported Tuesday that California received more tax revenue than expected during the month of June and for the 2017-18 fiscal year, which ended June 30.

Total revenues of $19.91 billion for June were greater than anticipated in the budget signed in June 2017 by $2.30 billion or 13.1 percent. All of the “big three” revenue sources came in higher than projected.

Overall revenues for FY 2017-18 of $135.29 billion were $1.53 billion more than estimates in the May budget revision and $6.82 billion higher than expected in the 2017-18 Budget Act. Total fiscal year revenues were $13.38 billion higher than in FY 2016-17.

For June, personal income tax, or PIT, receipts of $12.57 billion were $691.8 million, or 5.8 percent, higher than estimated in the budget proposal released in May.

For the fiscal year, PIT receipts of $93.48 billion were $4.34 billion, or 4.9 percent, more than projected in the 2017-18 Budget Act.

June corporation taxes of $3.23 billion were $577.2 million, or 21.7 percent, above assumptions in the governor’s May budget proposal. For the fiscal year, total corporation tax receipts were 14.8 percent above assumptions in the enacted budget.

Sales tax receipts of $3.15 billion for June were $759.0 million, or 31.8 percent, more than anticipated in the governor’s FY 2018-19 amended budget proposal. For the fiscal year, sales tax receipts were 2.0 percent higher than expectations in the 2017-18 Budget Act.

At the conclusion of FY 2017-18, the state’s General Fund had $10.38 billion more in receipts than disbursements, and $4.84 billion were used to repay outstanding loans from the previous fiscal year.

At the end of June, there were $39.93 billion available for internal borrowing from the state’s own funds, which was more than anticipated in the May budget proposal by $1.81 billion.
