The Impact Of Unusual Items On Profit

Importantly, our data indicates that Priortech's profit received a boost of US$2.1m 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 crunched the numbers on thousands of publicly listed companies, we found that a boost from unusual items in a given year is often not repeated the next year. And, after all, that's exactly what the accounting terminology implies. Priortech had a rather significant contribution from unusual items relative to its profit to September 2025. All else being equal, this would likely have the effect of making the statutory profit a poor guide to underlying earnings power.
