Plant, property, and equipment account increased from 0.04% to 0.05%, this could be as a result of revaluation of fixed assets or new acquisitions. Deferred tax asset account decreased from 0.22% to 0.14%, this might have been as a result of an increase in income tax expense for the year 2017 compared to 2016. There was a decline noted in Investments in subsidiaries accounted from 39.23% in 2016 to 33.99% in 2017, this could be as a result of decreasing non-controlling interests which can evidently be observed in the increase of Merger reserve account. We also note a slight increase in Share Capital from 3.36% to 3.41% for 2016 and 2017 respectively. This could be attributed to an increase in the share price.
Cash and cash equivalents account declined from 12.52% in 2016 to 0% in 2017. This could have been caused by increase in Trade and other payables as noted above.
