Jeremy Amos (asker): 8:51am Jun 16, 2004: I should check my source text more carefully before making postings! You're absolutely right, the full text is "EBIT vor a.o. Erträgen".

The \"Faktoren\" or even \"Positionen\" is implied in your original, although it is not actually written. \"One-off\" is more common usage than \"extraordinary\" here.
