- Affirmed
“The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis as the directors believe there will be sufficient cash available to meet liabilities as and when they fall due for a period of 12 months from when the financial statements were authorised for issue. The Company's ultimate parent undertaking, Red Bull GmbH, confirmed to the directors that it has no plans or intentions to discontinue the provision of sponsorship income within the next 12 months from the date of signing and will not request the repayment of intercompany loans unless the Company has the facilities to repay them.”
Significant events
- “At the start of 2023, Red Bull Powertrains 2026 announced a key strategic partnership with the Ford Motor Company. This partnership, along with the continued support from the wider Red Bull GmbH Group, enables the continued investment in both the facilities and talent required to implement an operation capable of delivering a best in class power unit, to be used in the Formula One World Championship from 2026 onward.”
- “Development of Red Bull's own power unit has continued in 2024, with performance milestones achieved, which will power Oracle Red Bull Racing and Visa Cash App Racing Bulls in the Formula One World Championship from 2026 onwards.”

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
