Materials, employee costs and other expenses are shown for the years they add up to operating expenses; for the years to Mar 2017 and Mar 2018 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 2015: the statement does not state its depreciation, which operating profit is worked out from, so operating profit is not given.

Interest cover is left blank for the year to Mar 2019: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill. Debt to equity is left blank for the years to Mar 2019 and Mar 2020: net worth is below zero, so there is no shareholders' money to set the borrowings against. Revenue growth is left blank for the year to Mar 2019: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. No balance sheet is on record for the years to Mar 2015, Mar 2017 and Mar 2018, so its lines and the ratios worked from it are blank there.
