Default Carbs and fibre

I have a packet of flaked almonds. The carb count is 3.9 grams per 100grams. The "dietary fibre' is 8.9 grams per 100grams.
If we are meant to subtract the fibre from the carbs for the true carb reading then these almonds are my best friend. But it doesn't add up some how. It doesn't say the fibre has been removed, but since the almonds have been blanched, i.e. no skin, then perhaps that took all the fibre with it ---?
Anyone solve this???
