Reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted net income per share

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	July 31,				July 31,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
	(in millions, except per-share amounts)
Net income	$	191	$	389	$	617	$	687
Basic weighted-average shares	172		174		172		174
Potential common shares	1		1		1		1
Diluted weighted-average shares	173		175		173		175
Net income per share - basic	$	1.11	$	2.23	$	3.58	$	3.94
Net income per share - diluted	$	1.10	$	2.22	$	3.56	$	3.92

Potentially dilutive shares whose effect would have been antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share. The number of shares excluded was not material for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024.
