French term or phrase: résultat net exceptionnel positif
Not convinced that "net exceptional result" is widely used.

Au 31 décembre 2002, nous avons constaté un résultat net exceptionnel positif de xxx M€ contre un résultat exceptionnel négatif de xxxM€ pour l’exercice précédent. Le profit exceptionnel constaté en 2002 est principalement constitué d’une reprise de provision sur créance douteuse.

exceptional net profit
Explanation:
"resultat net" is income or profits (if positive, of course) if negaive (deficitaire) it is a deficit or loss.

I found some use of "exceptional" in a few annual reports. Try a search of the term to check a few sites and see how it is used.

I agree with Sara that exceptional net income/profit sounds better as it enables you to get rid of the positive, but you\'d need to be sure which you\'re talking about.
