Operating income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 was impacted by actuarial losses related to the remeasurement of our pension plan assets and liabilities. The actuarial losses included in pension expense recognized in the quarter ended December 31, 2019 decreased net income attributable to NCR by $66 million, basic earnings per share from continuing operations by $0.52, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations by $0.46.

Operating income for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 was impacted by actuarial gains related to the remeasurement of our pension plan assets and liabilities. The actuarial gains included in pension expense recognized in the quarter ended December 31, 2018 increased net income attributable to NCR by $44 million, basic earnings per share from continuing operations by $0.37, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations by $0.37.

Net income per share in each quarter is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during that quarter while net income per share for the full year is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. Thus, the sum of the four quarters’ net income per share will not necessarily equal the full-year net income per share.
