And also - does PERFORM works with FOUND?

Not sure what you mean - can you elaborate?

No, perform (and execute) doesn't populate 'found' variable:

You have to use something like this:
get diagnostics rr = row_count;

Yes, PERFORM does populate FOUND.

From the documentation you just linked to....

• A PERFORM statement sets FOUND true if it produces (and discards) one or more rows, false if no row is produced.
