The Impact Of Unusual Items On Profit

For anyone who wants to understand HUAYU Automotive Systems' profit beyond the statutory numbers, it's important to note that during the last twelve months statutory profit gained from CN¥708m worth of unusual items. We can't deny that higher profits generally leave us optimistic, but we'd prefer it if the profit were to be sustainable. We ran the numbers on most publicly listed companies worldwide, and it's very common for unusual items to be once-off in nature. Which is hardly surprising, given the name. If HUAYU Automotive Systems doesn't see that contribution repeat, then all else being equal we'd expect its profit to drop over the current year.
