New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 22% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk.

Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses.
