Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
EARNINGS PER SHARE EARNINGS PER SHARE
PG&E Corporation’s basic EPS is calculated by dividing the income available for common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  PG&E Corporation applies the treasury stock method of reflecting the dilutive effect of outstanding share-based compensation in the calculation of diluted EPS.  The following is a reconciliation of PG&E Corporation’s income available for common shareholders and weighted average common shares outstanding for calculating diluted EPS:

For each of the periods, all potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of outstanding common shares on a diluted basis as PG&E Corporation has incurred a net loss for each period presented.

Following its emergence from Chapter 11, PG&E Corporation began raising funds through the issuance of equity. These issuances will materially impact the calculation of EPS in future periods. For more information on equity issuances see Note 6: Equity, above.
