BI Publisher wrong percentage value in XML

I see this strange behavior. I have the following two values for a field (MATH03) with display as % in JDE

103.47
97.92

In the XML, the values appear as below

103.47
.9792

And this is how it displays in Excel. My output is Excel

97.92%
10347%

Do you know why the value 103.47 appears wrong in XML and how to fix it?

Thanks
