O NA VER AGE
I assume that's how you parsed it AB. I don't like the NA for new area but I expect someone will tell me it's an accepted abbreviation!

hi rossim
I cannot find na as abbrev. for new area.
But www.Dictionary.com shows
n = abbrev. for new
a = abbrev. for area

Thought "overage" (too old) +covering n + a as stated, giving "on average"- typically.
