- 'Foreign currency translation loss' in the cash-flow statement is printed positive in 2025 (9,577,680) and negative in 2024 ((7,772,465)); kept as printed. Printed 2025 closing cash 764,636 is 1 below opening cash plus the movements (rounding). Equity attributable to owners (unlabelled subtotal, 49,562,341) is 1 below the sum of its lines (rounding). 2024 includes an IAS 29 loss on the net monetary position (147,828) and an inflation effect on cash (319,225).
- Cash and cash equivalents in the cash-flow statement (764,636; 2024: 2,639,072) are net of amounts due to banks (3,436,028 - 2,671,392 = 764,636; 2024: 4,359,087 - 1,720,015 = 2,639,072), so they differ from balance-sheet cash and balances with banks (validation fails cf.closing/opening_equals_balance_sheet follow from this). The 2024 closing cash also includes the IAS 29 inflation effect (319,225), an issuer concept, so cf.closing_cash fails for 2024 by exactly that line. Interest received is printed within investing activities and interest paid within financing activities. The statement of financial position is unclassified (no current/non-current subtotals).
