> Opinion: Williams Adley concluded that USADF’s financial statements as of September 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, are presented fairly, in all material respects, and in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
> The audit firm also found no reportable noncompliance with provisions of applicable laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements.
