How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?
To properly understand Nissha's profit results, we need to consider the JP¥3.1b expense attributed 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, after all, that's exactly what the accounting terminology implies. In the twelve months to June 2024, Nissha had a big unusual items expense. As a result, we can surmise that the unusual items made its statutory profit significantly weaker than it would otherwise be.

Our Take On Nissha's Profit Performance
As we discussed above, we think the significant unusual expense will make Nissha's statutory profit lower than it would otherwise have been. Based on this observation, we consider it possible that Nissha's statutory profit actually understates its earnings potential! On the other hand, its EPS actually shrunk in 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. So while earnings quality is important, it's equally important to consider the risks facing Nissha at this point in time.
