Revenue growth and operating profit growth are left blank for the years to Mar 2012 and Mar 2017: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. Revenue growth is left blank for the years to Mar 2018 and Mar 2019: between the two periods excise duty was taken out of revenue when GST replaced it, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. Interest cover is left blank for the year to Mar 2020: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill. No balance sheet is on record for the years to Mar 2011, Mar 2012, Mar 2013, Mar 2014, Mar 2015, Mar 2016, Mar 2017 and Mar 2018, so its lines and the ratios worked from it are blank there.

Business segments
In the year to Mar 2020 the company reports one business segment, AUTOMOTIVE COMPONENTS, which carries all its revenue.
Where the return came from
Yearly rates to Mar 2020, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.
| Over | Return a year | Earnings growth | Change in P/E | Dividend yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | −70.8% | – | – | 0.0% |
| 3 years | −40.0% | – | – | 0.0% |
| 5 years | −20.6% | – | – | 0.0% |
Return is price growth plus the average dividend yield. Change in P/E is (1 + price growth) / (1 + earnings growth) - 1, so the parts compound rather than add. Earnings growth and the change in P/E are left empty where earnings per share at either end of the window was a loss or is not on record. Earnings growth over 5 years is on profit divided by shares in issue at both ends: the earnings per share stated for one end does not match that year's profit and share count.

A dash is a line the filing did not state. “Under 0.01%” is a holding of shares too small to show at two decimals.
