The Impact Of Unusual Items On Profit

To properly understand ROYAL HOLDINGS' profit results, we need to consider the JP¥1.2b expense attributed to unusual items. 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 ROYAL HOLDINGS to produce a higher profit next year, all else being equal.
