    The way i understand Working Capital, its like say keeping $1000 in your savings account to pay bills, as long you keep it as $1000 you arent out of pocket each payday. But if one payday you decide you you want keep it at $1500 because you have a bit bill coming up, then you are out of pocket $500 that pay. If they reduced it to $800, then they have an extra $200 that pay period.

    In this case Vocus increased how much they have saved up by $90.9m, so they have less cashflow this FY, they are saving up. If they dont decide to change anything next FY they aren't out of pocket, so $0 change in the NWC.

    (or do i have it wrong?)
