Materials, employee costs and other expenses are shown for the years they add up to operating expenses; for the year to Mar 2019 they do not, so they are left blank. Tax is left blank for the years to Mar 2020, Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: profit before tax less the tax charge stated does not come to the profit after tax the same statement states, so the tax charge is not shown. Operating expenses, operating profit before depreciation and operating profit after depreciation are left blank for the years to Mar 2020 and Mar 2021: the statement does not state its depreciation, which operating profit is worked out from, so operating profit is not given.
