You can reserve some space at the top of the footer with #'vspace and
draw whatever you want there.
You can also put directly horizontal lines in the footer with hrule.

(footer
 (lambda (pdf:*page*)
   (compile-text (:font *font* :font-size 10)
     (hrule :dy 2)
     (vspace 4)
     (hrule :dy 1/2)
     (paragraph (:h-align :left :color '(1 0 0))
       "Company name")
     (paragraph (:h-align :center :color '(0 0 0))
       (verbatim (format nil "~D" pdf:*page-number*))))))
