EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE

5. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE

 

BASIC

Earnings per common share is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

 

DILUTED

The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive impact of stock options and share-settled RSUs. This method assumes any proceeds from the exercise of stock options and vesting of share-settled RSUs would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period.

 

Weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows:

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, 2.4 million and 20.5 million, respectively, of anti-dilutive stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $60.37 and $53.66, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per common share calculation.
