SEMPRA ENERGY - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table provides the per share computations for our earnings for the years ended December 31. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) is calculated by dividing earnings applicable to common stock by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution of common stock equivalent shares that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.<div><table style="border-collapse:collapse;margin-top:20px;"><tr style="height: 19px"><td colspan="7" style="width: 698px;

Under this method, proceeds based on the exercise price plus unearned compensation and windfall tax benefits and minus tax shortfalls are assumed to be used to repurchase shares on the open market at the average market price for the year. The windfall tax benefits are tax deductions we would receive upon the assumed exercise of stock options in excess of the deferred income taxes we recorded related to the compensation expense on the stock options. Tax shortfalls occur when the assumed tax deductions are less than recorded deferred income taxes. The calculation excludes options for which the exercise price on common stock was greater than the average market price during the year. We had 2,138,800, 1,504,250 and 1,496,500 of such excluded stock options outstanding during 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. During 2010, we had 9,900 stock options outstanding that were antidilutive because of the unearned compensation and windfall tax benefits included in the assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method. There were no such antidilutive stock options outstanding during 2009 or 2008.The dilution from unvested restricted stock awards and units is also based on the treasury stock method. Assumed proceeds equal to the unearned compensation and windfall tax benefits and minus tax shortfalls related to the awards are assumed to be used to repurchase shares on the open market at the average market price for the year. The windfall tax benefits or tax shortfalls are the difference between tax deductions we would receive upon the assumed vesting of restricted stock awards and units and the deferred income taxes we recorded related to the compensation expense on the restricted stock awards and units. We had 1,009 restricted stock awards and units outstanding that were antidilutive during 2008. There were no such anti-dilutive restricted stock awards or units in 2010 or 2009.We are authorized to issue 750,000,000 shares of no-par-value common stock. In addition, we are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock having rights, preferences and privileges that would be established by the Sempra Energy board of directors at the time of issuance. Shares of common stock held by the ESOP were 504,440; 868,173 and 1,177,196 at December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These shares are unallocated and therefore excluded from the computation of EPS.Excluding shares held by the ESOP, common stock activity consisted of the following:<div><table style="border-collapse:collapse;margin-top:20px;"><tr style="height: 17px"><td colspan="8" style="width: 628px;

COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAMSOn September 11, 2007, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of additional shares of our common stock provided that the amounts expended for such purposes did not exceed the greater of $2 billion or amounts expended to purchase no more than 40 million shares. Purchases may include open-market and negotiated transactions, structured purchase arrangements, and tender offers.In April 2008, we entered into a Collared Accelerated Share Acquisition Program under which we prepaid $1 billion to repurchase shares of our common stock to be delivered later in 2008 in a share forward transaction. Our outstanding shares used to calculate earnings per share were reduced by the number of shares repurchased when they were delivered to us, and the $1 billion purchase price was recorded as a reduction in shareholders' equity upon its prepayment. We received 18,416,241 shares under the program during 2008 based on a final weighted average price of $54.30 per share.In September 2010, we entered into a Collared Accelerated Share Acquisition Program under which we prepaid $500 million to repurchase shares of our common stock in a share forward transaction. The total number of shares purchased (subject to a minimum of 8,078,000 shares and maximum of 10,321,889 shares) will be determined by dividing the $500 million purchase price by the volume-weighted average trading prices of shares of our common stock during a valuation period, minus a fixed discount and subject to a minimum and maximum price set during a hedging period. We expect the program to be completed in the first quarter of 2011.Our outstanding shares used to calculate earnings per share are reduced by the number of shares repurchased when they are delivered to us, and the $500 million purchase price was recorded as a reduction in shareholders' equity upon its prepayment. We received 5,670,006 shares in September 2010, and 2,407,994 shares in October 2010. We will receive any additional repurchased shares above the minimum at the end of the valuation period, which will continue until the program is completed.These share repurchase programs are unrelated to share-based compensation as described in Note 9.NOTE 13.
