Going concern

Affirmed

“The Board concluded, based on these reviews, that there are sufficient reserves held at the date of approval of these financial statements to create a reasonable expectation that Oxfam International has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and that it is therefore appropriate to prepare the entity's financial statements on a going concern basis.”

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
