- In the text layer of p27 the label 'Net cash generated from operating activities' is held at the foot of the page, away from its row of figures (30,037,367; 2025: 40,663,013); the render prints it on that row, so it is read as an unlabelled line after 'Income tax paid'.
- Interest received is printed within investing activities and interest paid within financing activities (p27).
- The equity section prints the subtotal attributable to owners of the parent without a label (p23); read as an unlabelled subtotal.
- The group cash-flow column headings carry small marks ('2026' with a superscript mark, '2025 #', p27) that the document does not explain on that page; figures read as printed.
- The statement of changes in equity (p25-p26) shows a prior-year restatement of the 1 June 2024 opening balances (unwinding of an intercompany debt waiver against a capital contribution reserve); the 2025 comparative columns on the primary statements are not labelled restated in this document.
