How were Lord's Mark's consolidated results reviewed?

In its report dated November 14, 2026, the independent auditor said its review had not identified anything causing it to believe the consolidated statement did not disclose the required information or contained a material misstatement.

The consolidated statement includes four subsidiaries: Lords Mark Tech Next Pvt. Ltd., Lords Green Energy Pvt. Ltd., Renalyx Health Systems Pvt. Ltd. and Lords Mark Micro Biotech Pvt. Ltd. The auditor said it had not itself reviewed those subsidiaries' interim financial information and relied on other auditors' reports for the related amounts and disclosures; its conclusion was not modified.

Lord's Mark also stated that it had been amalgamated with Kratos Energy & Infrastructure Limited under an order of the National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai. The filing says the resultant entity is Lord's Mark and that the financial results were prepared under Indian Accounting Standards, or Ind AS.
