If your talking about non-cash financing and investing activities here a few examples:
Acquiring an asset through a capital lease or by incurring long-term debt.
Conversion of debt to equity.
Exchange of non-cash assets or liabilities for other non-cash assets or liabilities.
Issuance of ownership shares to acquire assets.
Obtaining an investment asset or a building by receiving a contribution.

I can not help you comment on this without the balance sheet and income statement. For example you could say the company acquired 32,868 in new capital assets this year which is a 76% increase from the year before however the cash flow statement does not tell you how many assets you retired this year which is information I would want to know. Basically if your looking for quick comments ask yourself the question of why one item is up or down and figure out why. Examples
Why did you collect more cash from customers this year, did you have more customers or did you do a better job of collecting?
Why did you pay more to vendors, was it due to growth of the company or was it due to increased prices for products. (Volume is usual a good way to determine growth, not always revenue)
Why such an increase in PP&E? Are we growing as a company, did we have a fire and need to replace assets, did a new technology in the industry create obsolescence with are PP&E.
These are just a few question I ask myself when I look at the statement, I wish I could be of greater help.

I am using the indirect method for a cash flow statement. In the comparative balance sheet I have bonds payable 2003 $66,000 & 2004 $48,750 (decrease 17,250) The bonds payable were retired for $17,250. Do I show as an increase under financing activities?
