Earnings (Loss) Per Share

NOTE 20. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Net income is allocated between the Company’s common shares and other participating securities based on their participation rights. The Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, represent participating securities. Earnings attributable to Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock are not included in earnings attributable to common shares in calculating earnings per common share (the two-class method). For periods of net loss, there is no impact from the two-class method on earnings per share (“EPS”) as net loss is allocated to common shares because Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shares are not contractually obligated to share the loss.

The following table sets forth the computation of earnings (loss) per common share using the two-class method. The dilutive effect of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, the Series A Preferred Stock dividend, and the Series B Preferred Stock dividend is reflected in diluted EPS using the if-converted method and options, restricted shares, and performance shares are reflected using the treasury stock method. For periods of net loss, basic and diluted EPS are the same, as the assumed exercise of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, restricted and performance shares, and stock options are anti-dilutive. (amounts in millions, except share and per share amounts):
