EAC Track Quality Question

Before I ask the question, I would like to point out that I have configured EAC with the drive specifics - offsets, overreads, etc.

I have successfully ripped trade cds with no errors, but have a bunch of cds (from the same trade source) that have track quality showing less than 100%. The example below has a number of files at 99.9%, though there were other discs with lower figures - though still 99.x%. These cds play fine, so from a listening POV, there are no problems. However, if I wish to share them in trades, or ripping to upload, what concerns are there about the % of track quality? Is 99.9% ok? From where would these "less than perfect" figures be derived? Any advice will be much appreciated.
