- Affirmed
“MAF International has USD 27,578,000 (2023 - USD 23,904,000) held in immediately accessible cash or short-term investments at 31 December 2024. Of this USD 8,255,000 (2023 - USD 8,333,000) is held for restricted purposes and the remaining cash is for use at the directors' discretion which is sufficient to cover the group's liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future. Three-year cash flow projections have been prepared, alongside confirmation of ongoing income from MAF member groups, and therefore these financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the charity is a going concern.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
