No ownership test is on file for this company. The test reads who holds a company's shares from its shareholder register, and it is run each day for companies with a number in Estonia's, Latvia's or Poland's register. For a company anywhere else, no register read here states its shareholders, so the test cannot be run.

No corporate ownership records on file. This is an absence of evidence, not evidence of a simple structure — see the risk breakdown, where the ownership component is left unscored for exactly this reason.

None recorded with a stated ownership stake or control method.

Nothing to draw: this company has no recorded links to another company on file.

No other company on file shares Saemul 1-Dong Pyongchon District Pyongyang Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Each reading is kept with the methodology version that produced it. A later reading is not a correction of an earlier one — it is a different question asked of more sources.

Records from these sources are matched into one company only on a shared identifier, or by a human reviewer — never on name similarity alone. How this works. Not legal or compliance advice: check the originals before acting on anything here.

TRUE

A source states it. Rendered as a fact, with the source attached.

FALSE

A source explicitly denies it. Rare, and never inferred from silence.

UNKNOWN

Checked, nothing found. Rendered as an em dash, never as 0 or "no".

NOT_ASSESSED

Never checked — nothing was read here. Excluded from coverage, and not counted as clean.

29 records on this company — identifiers, aliases, officers, listings, figures — each carry the source that wrote them and are shown beside their own entries. The fields above are different: the entities table has no source column, so what is shown is every source whose stored payload contains the value verbatim. That is strong evidence, not proof of which write landed it, and where nothing contains the value the row says so instead of naming a plausible source.
