Note 10 — Earnings Per Share

 

Basic loss per share of common stock attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share of common stock attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including those related to the Company’s outstanding warrants and the 2022 Plan, to the extent dilutive. For all periods presented, these potential shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As a result, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for all periods presented. The Company’s mandatory convertible Series A Preferred Stock included a 30% discount from the IPO price. As a result, the aggregate discount of $1,472,514 was accounted for as a deemed dividend that increased the basic net loss per share for common stockholders. 

 

The following table sets forth common stock equivalents that have been excluded from the computation of dilutive weighted average shares outstanding as their inclusion would have been antidilutive:

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.
