- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The principal income for the Charity is from ASDA Stores Limited. The Charity has a sufficient level of unrestricted cash balances and contractually agreed income due in the twelve-month period following the date of approval of the financial statements as set out in the funding agreement with ASDA Stores Limited to meet all committed expenses and donations as they fall due for the twelve-month period following the date of approval of the financial statements. The trustees are of the opinion that there are no material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the ability of the Foundation to continue as a going concern. These financial statements are therefore prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.”
Significant events

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
