Crude Fiber	4% max	4.4%
Moisture	10% max	—
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)	0.05% min	0.1%

Dry matter takes the water out (value ÷ (100 − moisture) × 100), so wet and dry foods can be compared on one scale.

Carbohydrates and calories (estimates)

About 32% of the dry matter is carbohydrate, worked out by difference: labels don't state it. The label states no ash, so 8% of dry matter is assumed (a typical value).
