How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?

For anyone who wants to understand Dynic's profit beyond the statutory numbers, it's important to note that during the last twelve months statutory profit was reduced by JP¥178m due to unusual items. It's never great to see unusual items costing the company profits, but on the upside, things might improve sooner rather than later. We looked at thousands of listed companies and found that unusual items are very often one-off in nature. And that's hardly a surprise given these line items are considered unusual. If Dynic doesn't see those unusual expenses repeat, then all else being equal we'd expect its profit to increase over the coming year.

Our Take On Dynic's Profit Performance

Because unusual items detracted from Dynic's earnings over the last year, you could argue that we can expect an improved result in the current quarter. Because of this, we think Dynic's earnings potential is at least as good as it seems, and maybe even better! And the EPS is up 64% over the last twelve months. At the end of the day, it's essential to consider more than just the factors above, if you want to understand the company properly. Keep in mind, when it comes to analysing a stock it's worth noting the risks involved. For example, Dynic has 2 warning signs (and 1 which is potentially serious) we think you should know about.

Today we've zoomed in on a single data point to better understand the nature of Dynic's profit. But there is always more to discover if you are capable of focussing your mind on minutiae.
