Earnings Per Share Explained
Earnings Per Share Explained
An ordinary share is an equity instrument that is subordinate to all other classes of equity instruments.
An entity may have more than one class of ordinary shares. Ordinary shares of the same class have the same
rights to receive dividend.
When an entity presents both consolidated financial statements and separate financial statements prepared in
accordance with Ind AS 110, CFS, and Ind AS 27, SFS, respectively,
the disclosures required by this Standard shall be presented both in the CFS and SFS.
In CFS such disclosures shall be based on consolidated information and
in SFS such disclosures shall be based on information given in separate financial statements.
IMPORTANT NOTE
1. Profit or loss shall be adjusted for the after-tax amounts of preference dividend, differences arising on the
settlement of preference shares, and other similar effects of preference shares classified as equity.
2. An entity that has preference shares in issue, will classify those shares as financial liabilities or equity.
3. preference dividends that are non-cumulative should be deducted ONLY if such dividends are declared.
preference dividends that are cumulative should be deducted whether are not such dividends are declared.
Arrears of cumulative preference dividends paid should not be deducted.

Entities often issue instruments that are convertible into ordinary shares that may be either mandatorily convertible
or
0L
or convertible at the option of the issuer or holder.
The issue of ordinary shares is solely dependent on the passage of time for a mandatorily convertible instrument.
Ordinary shares that are issuable on the conversion of a mandatorily convertible instrument should be
included in basic EPS from the date the contract is entered into. so
A contingent share agreement is an agreement to issue shares that is dependent on the satisfaction of
specified conditions.
[Example-ABC Ltd. has provided staff with share options. If they work for you for 3 years, they will be able to
buy shares at a discount. This is a contingent share agreement.]
Contingently issuable ordinary shares are ordinary shares issuable for little or no cash or other
consideration upon the satisfaction of specified conditions in a contingent share agreement.
[Example-ABC Ltd. buys a XYZ Ltd. s business in exchange for ABC Ltd. s shares. If the share price falls by
more than 25% in the first 6 months, ABC Ltd. will issue more shares (free) to the vendor, as compensation]
Contingently issuable shares are treated as outstanding and are included in the calculation of basic earnings per
share only from the date when all necessary conditions are satisfied (i.e. the events have occurred).
Shares that are issuable solely after the passage of time are not contingently issuable shares, because the
passage of time is a certainty.
T
Outstanding ordinary shares that are contingently returnable (ie subject to recall) are not treated as
outstanding and are excluded from the calculation of basic earnings per share until the date the shares
are no longer subject to recall.
Example ABC Ltd. buys a company for shares in 20X1. If the profits for calendar years 20X1 and 20X2 meet
budget, ABC Ltd. will issue more shares to the vendor in February 20X3. These additional shares will be included
in the weighted-average calculation from 1 January 20X3 (considering reporting date as December end), if the
targets are met.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, an entity shall adjust
profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent entity, and
the weighted average number of shares outstanding,

Example- ABC & Co has issued preference shares with the option to convert these into an equal no of ordinary
shares in 2 years time. They represent potential ordinary shares, even though you do not know whether the
holders will convert them (it will depend on the prices of each class of share at the time). If the price of the
ordinary share is higher than that of the preferred share, the holders will convert, and will make a profit. If the
price is lower, they will not.
Example of Antidilution- One may convert some low interest debt to ordinary shares. The interest saved (earnings)
decreases the earnings per share, as the additional shares in issue increase substantially.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Dilutive potential ordinary shares shall be determined independently for each period presented.
Only potential ordinary shares that are dilutive are considered in the calculation of diluted EPS.
Potential ordinary shares should be treated as dilutive only when their conversion to ordinary shares
would decrease profit per share or increase loss per share from continuing operations attributable to
ordinary equity holders.
The effects of anti-dilutive potential ordinary shares are ignored in calculating diluted EPS.
An entity might have a number of different types of potential ordinary shares in issue. Each one would
need to be considered separately rather than in aggregate.

Employee Stock Options fetµfilled
Employee share options with fixed or determinable terms and non-vested ordinary shares are treated as options
in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, even though they may be contingent on vesting. They are treated
as outstanding on the grant date.
Performance-based employee share options are treated as contingently issuable shares because their issue is
contingent upon satisfying specified conditions in addition to the passage of time.
PEPI
Contingently issuable shares
1.For the purpose of calculation of basic earnings per share,Contingently issuable ordinary shares are treated
as outstanding and included in the calculation ofBasic earnings per share if the conditions are satisfied (i.e. the
events have occurred). Contingently issuable shares are included from the beginning of the period (or from the
date of the contingent share agreement, if later).
If the conditions are not satisfied, the number of contingently issuable shares included in the diluted
earnings per share calculation is based on the number of shares that would be issuable if the end of the
period were the end of the contingency period.
Restatement is not permitted if the conditions are not met when the contingency period expires.
2.If attainment or maintenance of a specified amount of earnings for a period is the condition for contingent
a and if that amount has been attained at the end of the reporting period but must be maintained beyond the
issue
end of the reporting period for an additional period, then the additional ordinary shares are treated as outstanding,
if the effect is dilutive, when calculating diluted earnings per share.
In that case, the calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the number of ordinary shares that would
be issued if the amount of earnings at the end of the reporting period were the amount of earnings at the end of the
contingency period.
the calculation of basic earnings per share does not include such contingently issuable ordinary shares until
the end of the contingency period because not all necessary conditions have been satisfied.
3.The number of ordinary shares contingently issuable may depend on the future market price of the
ordinary shares.
the calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the number of ordinary shares that would be issued
if the market price at the end of the reporting period were the market price at the end of the contingency period, if
the effect is dilutive.
If the condition is based on an average of market prices over a period of time that extends beyond the end
of the reporting period, the average for the period of time that has lapsed is used.
Because the market price may change in a future period, the calculation of basic earnings per share does not
include such contingently issuable ordinary shares until the end of the contingency period because not all
necessary conditions have been satisfied.
4.The number of ordinary shares contingently issuable may depend on future earnings and future prices
of the ordinary shares. In such cases, the number of ordinary shares included in the diluted earnings per
share calculation is based on both conditions (ie earnings to date and the current market price at the end of the
reporting period). Contingently issuable ordinary shares are not included in the diluted earnings per share
calculation unless both conditions are met.

5.In other cases, the number of ordinary shares contingently issuable depends on a condition other than earnings
or market price (for example, the opening of a specific number of retail stores).
In such cases, assuming that the present status of the condition remains unchanged until the end of the
contingency period, the contingently issuable ordinary shares are included in the calculation of diluted
earnings per share according to the status at the end of the reporting period.

convertible into either ordinary shares of the subsidiary, joint venture or associate,
or ordinary shares of the parent or investors with joint control of, or significant influence (the reporting entity)
over, the investee.
If these potential ordinary shares of the subsidiary, joint venture or associate have a dilutive effect on
the basic earnings per share of the reporting entity, they are included in the calculation of diluted
earnings per share.
When an issued contract that may be settled in ordinary shares or cash at the entity s option may give rise
to an asset or a liability, or a hybrid instrument with both an equity and a liability component under Ind AS
32, the entity should adjust the numerator (profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders) for any changes
in the profit or loss that would have resulted during the period if the contract had been classified wholly as
an equity instrument.
For contracts that may be settled in ordinary shares or cash at the holder s option, the more dilutive of
cash settlement and share settlement shall be used in calculating diluted earnings per share.
Purchased options
Contracts such as purchased put options and purchased call options (options held by the entity on its own
ordinary shares)
are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because including them would be
antidilutive. [The put option would be exercised only if the exercise price were higher than the market price
and the call option would be exercised only if the exercise price were lower than the market price].

RETROSPECTIVE ADJUSTMENTS
Diluted EPS of any prior period presented should not be restated for changes in the assumptions used (such as
for contingently issuable shares) or for the conversion of potential ordinary shares (such as convertible debt)
outstanding at the end of the previous period. These factors are already taken into account in calculating the basic
and, where applicable, the diluted EPS for the current period. Prior period s EPS data should be restated for the
effects of errors and adjustments resulting from changes to accounting policies accounted for retrospectively.
Basic and diluted EPS figures for the current period and for prior periods should include bonus issues, share splits,
share consolidations and other similar events occurring during the period that change the number of shares in
issue without a corresponding change in the resources of the entity (that is, retrospective application).
PRESENTATION
An entity shall present in the statement of profit and loss basic and diluted earnings per share for profit or loss
from continuing operations.
An entity that reports a discontinued operation shall disclose the basic and diluted amounts per share for the
discontinued operation either in the statement of profit and loss or in the notes.
An entity shall present basic and diluted earnings per share, even if the amounts are negative (ie a loss per
share).
DISCLOSURE
An entity shall disclose the following:
(a) The amounts used as the numerators in calculating basic and diluted EPS, and a reconciliation.
(b) the weighted average number of ordinary shares used in calculating basic and diluted EPS, and a
reconciliation of these denominators to each other.
(c) Instruments (including contingently issuable shares) that could potentially dilute basic earnings per
share in the future, but were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are
antidilutive for the period(s) presented.

An entity has following preference shares in issue at the end of 20X4:
5% redeemable, non-cumulative preference shares: These shares are classified as liabilities.
During the year, a dividend was paid on the 5% preference shares – Rs. 100,000.
Increasing-rate, cumulative, non-redeemable preference shares issued at a I discount in
20X0, with a cumulative dividend rate from 20X5 of 10%: The shares were issued at a discount
to compensate the holders, because dividend payments will not commence until 20X5. The
accrual for the discount in the current year, calculated using the effective interest method
amounted to, say, Rs. 18,000. These shares are classified as equity – Rs. 200,000.
8% non-redeemable, non-cumulative preference shares: At the beginning of the year, the
entity had Rs. 100,000 8% preference shares outstanding but, at 30 June 20X4, it repurchased
Rs. 50,000 of these at a discount of Rs. 1,000 – Rs. 50,000.
7% cumulative, convertible preference shares (converted in the year): These shares were
classified as equity, until their conversion into ordinary shares at the beginning of the year. No
dividend was accrued in respect of the year, although the previous year’s dividend was paid
immediately prior to conversion. To induce conversion, the terms of conversion of the 7%
convertible preference shares were also amended, and the revised terms entitled the preference

At 30 June 20X1, the issued share capital of an entity consisted of 1,500,000 ordinary shares of Rs.
1 each. On 1 October 20X1, the entity issued Rs. 1,250,000 of 8% convertible loan stock for cash

ended 20X6 to 20X9, into the number of ordinary shares set out below:
30 June 20X6: 135 ordinary shares;
30 June 20X7: 130 ordinary shares;
30 June 20X8: 125 ordinary shares; and 30 June 20X9: 120 ordinary shares.
If the loan stocks are not converted by 20X9, they would be redeemed at par. There are two
different ways of assessing these instruments under Ind AS 32: the conversion option, to
convert to a number of shares which varies only with time, could be viewed as either an option
to convert to a variable or a fixed number of shares and recognised as either a liability or
equity respectively.
This illustration assumes that the written equity conversion option is accounted for as a
derivative liability and marked to market through profit or loss. The change in the options’ fair
value reported in 20X2 and 20X3 amounted to losses of Rs. 2,500 and Rs. 2,650 respectively. It
is assumed that there are no tax consequences arising from these losses.
The profit before interest, fair value movements and taxation for the year ended 30 June 20X2
