The Plone Foundation took $67,747 in 2025 and spent $75,027. Its balance sheet says $3,209,298, but 93.48% of that is one line called Software Code, valued in 2009 on the Plone 3.3 code base. A line-by-line read of the filed Form 990, reconciled to the cent against the Foundation's own ledger.
The AlmaLinux OS Foundation filed $250,051 of revenue for 2025 with zero employees and 143 volunteers. Advertising was 70.48% of spending. The $2.9M figure doing the rounds is wrong by 11.60x.
The OWASP Foundation reported $4,340,593 of revenue in FY2024, up 35.40%, turning a $244,324 deficit into a $735,916 surplus. Its own board-approved budgets then plan deficits of $72,294.81 for FY2025 and $247,834.11 for FY2026.

OASIS Open reported $4,632,683 of revenue in FY2024, up 40.40%, swinging a $616,017 deficit into a $415,595 surplus. Its own combined statements put FY2025 at $4,058,470, a year the IRS has no return for. Reading them against the filed 990 shows most of the money is not OASIS's.
Common Crawl reported $1,467,641 of revenue in FY2024. Because it files as a private foundation, its donor list is public, and it names Anthropic and OpenAI at $250,000 each in both FY2023 and FY2024, matching the founder's family foundation to the dollar.
The Bytecode Alliance Foundation reported $288,126 of revenue in FY2024, down 48.63% from its $560,835 peak. All of it is membership dues, it has zero employees, and 77.90% of its spending is one line called Consultants. A four-year read of the filed returns.
The body behind OCP earns three quarters of its money from conferences, not members.

The NetBSD Foundation filed $51,146 of revenue and a $14,928 deficit for 2024, and published $80,607.21 of income and a record $314,748.48 balance for 2025. It also publishes twenty-two years of its own accounts, which lets you check them against the tax return. They differ by exactly one line.
