How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?
Importantly, our data indicates that KG Mobility's profit was reduced by ₩29b, 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. KG Mobility took a rather significant hit from unusual items in the year to September 2025. As a result, we can surmise that the unusual items made its statutory profit significantly weaker than it would otherwise be.
