Material uncertainty over going concern
As a result of the intention to liquidate the entity the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than that of going concern. This basis includes, where applicable, writing the Company's assets down to net realisable value. No provision has been made for the future costs of terminating the business unless such costs were committed at the reporting date.

Significant events
- “On November 18, 2024, Salesforce Inc. completed its acquisition of Own Data Company Ltd. and all its subsidiaries including OwnCompany UK Limited for $1.9 billion net of the value of the approximately 10% of outstanding shares currently owned by Salesforce. On 6 January 2025 ownership of the Company was transferred to Salesforce UK limited, which became the immediate parent Company. Subsequently, on 1 February 2025, certain assets of the Company were sold to Salesforce UK Limited and all UK employees were transferred to that company. The French branch will be wound up and the directors plan to liquidate the Company once all remaining obligations are settled.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, the Company received a number of claims from former employees of the French branch following terminations in February and May 2025. The Company is defending its position, however, management have estimated the claim to be between EUR 1.96m and EUR 5.24m and believe that a cash payment to settle these claims is likely.”

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
