Profitability
Other income and expenses, net
Other inc./exp.
What it is
Everything outside ordinary operations: interest paid or received, currency gains, asset sales, litigation.
How to read it
Normally a small line. When it gets large, understand why: net income inflated by a building sale has nothing to do with business performance.
What it does not tell you
🪤 Often where exceptional items land. It's the first line to check when net income surprises.
