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

- Henderson Loggie LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The charitable company continues to receive financial support from The Edinburgh Academy in the form of staff and facilities costs borne by the School and not charged to the Foundation. The trustees are not aware of any reason why this benefit would not continue for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
