How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?
Importantly, our data indicates that Ningbo Exciton Technology's profit was reduced by CN„32m, due to unusual items, over the last year. While deductions due to unusual items are disappointing in the first instance, there is a silver lining. When we analysed the vast majority of listed companies worldwide, we found that significant unusual items are often not repeated. And that's hardly a surprise given these line items are considered unusual. Assuming those unusual expenses don't come up again, we'd therefore expect Ningbo Exciton Technology to produce a higher profit next year, all else being equal.
