EARNINGS PER SHARE DATA

NOTE F EARNINGS PER SHARE DATA

The reported net earnings attributable to the Company were used when computing basic and diluted earnings per share.  The following table sets forth the shares used as the denominator for those computations:

	Three Months Ended
(in thousands)	January 27, 2013	January 29, 2012
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	263,944	263,946
Dilutive potential common shares	5,196	5,662
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	269,140	269,608

For the three months ended January 27, 2013, and January 29, 2012, a total of 1.0 million and 1.1 million weighted- average stock options, respectively, were not included in the computation of dilutive potential common shares since their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.
