Revenue growth, operating profit growth and net profit growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2011: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. Interest cover is left blank for the years to Mar 2013 and Mar 2014: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill.
