Materials, employee costs and other expenses are shown for the years they add up to operating expenses; for the year to Mar 2017 they do not, so they are left blank. Operating expenses, operating profit before depreciation and operating profit after depreciation are left blank for the year to Mar 2018: revenue, other income and exceptional items less the total expenses stated do not come to the profit before tax the same statement states, so the operating expenses cannot be told apart from the rest.

Debt to equity is left blank for the years to Mar 2019, Mar 2020, Mar 2021, Mar 2022 and Mar 2023: net worth is below zero, so there is no shareholders' money to set the borrowings against.
