ACADIA REALTY TRUST Earnings Per Share Disclosure
Basic earnings per Common Share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted-average Common Shares outstanding during the period (Note 10).
During the periods presented, the Company had unvested LTIP Units that entitle holders to non-forfeitable dividend equivalent rights. As such, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share using the two-class method.
Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution from the assumed conversion or exercise of securities including the effects of Restricted Share Units issued under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2020 Plan (Note 13), and the shares issuable upon settlement of any outstanding forward sale agreements (Note 10). The shares related to forward sale agreements are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method for the period they are outstanding prior to settlement. Under this method, the number of incremental shares included in the diluted share count is equal to the excess, if any, of: (i) the number of Common Shares that would be issued upon full physical settlement of the forward sale agreements, over (ii) the number of Common Shares that could be repurchased using the proceeds receivable upon settlement, based on the average market price during the period and the adjusted forward sales price immediately prior to settlement. The impact of these shares is excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation when the effect would be anti-dilutive.
The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is excluded from the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share. These units are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis, and the income attributable to such units is allocated on this same basis. This income is reflected as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As a result, the assumed conversion of Common OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share and is therefore excluded.

About Earnings Per Share Disclosures
The earnings per share disclosure breaks down the calculation from net income to both basic and diluted EPS, revealing the full impact of a company's capital structure on per-share economics. The reconciliation between basic and diluted share counts exposes how many stock options, RSUs, convertible securities, and warrants are potentially dilutive to existing shareholders.
Key signals: a widening gap between basic and diluted shares indicates growing dilution from equity compensation or convertible instruments. Anti-dilutive securities excluded from the diluted calculation deserve attention — they represent latent dilution that will materialize if the stock price rises. Watch for the effect of share buybacks on per-share metrics: EPS growth driven primarily by repurchases rather than income growth signals weakening fundamentals. Compare year-over-year changes in the diluted share count against equity compensation expense to assess whether management is effectively managing dilution.
