There is a newer version: 1.12.1

Why is this an issue?
In Delphi, function results should be assigned to the special Result variable.

  While function results can be assigned to the function identifier, as in earlier versions of
  Pascal, this approach is no longer recommended as it can be confusing.

How to fix it

  Assign the function result to the Result variable instead of the function identifier:

function GetFoo: TFoo;
begin
  GetFoo := TFoo.Create;
end;

function GetFoo: TFoo;
begin
  Result := TFoo.Create;
end;
