How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?

Importantly, our data indicates that Hangzhou Chuhuan Science & Technology's profit received a boost of CN¥6.4m in unusual items, over the last year. While we like to see profit increases, we tend to be a little more cautious when unusual items have made a big contribution. When we analysed the vast majority of listed companies worldwide, we found that significant unusual items are often not repeated. And that's as you'd expect, given these boosts are described as 'unusual'. If Hangzhou Chuhuan Science & Technology doesn't see that contribution repeat, then all else being equal we'd expect its profit to drop over the current year.
