How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?
Importantly, our data indicates that Dongguan Tarry ElectronicsLtd's profit was reduced by CN¥9.3m, 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.
