35	EARNINGS (LOSSES) PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit of the period attributable to common shareholders of the Group by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. No diluted earnings per common share were calculated because there are no common or investment shares with potential dilutive effects (i.e., financial instruments or agreements that give the right to obtain common or investment shares); therefore, it is equal to basic earnings per share.

The basic earnings per share are broken down as follows:


	2015		2016			2017
