Preliminary earnings

A filing announcing estimated revenue, operating profit and net income before results are finalized.
Also known as: Provisional results

What it is

Korean companies often disclose preliminary quarterly or annual results before the audit or review is complete.

How to read it

Filings show the current period alongside the prior-year period and prior quarter. Compare with analyst consensus to judge a beat or miss.

What to keep in mind

Preliminary figures can change. A big gap between operating profit and net income usually points to one-off items.
