NOTE 21 – LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of shares of Common Stock used in computing basic and diluted loss per Common Stock for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, are as follows:

 

   2024   2023 
   Year ended December 31 
   2024   2023 
   Number of shares 
         
Weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding attributable to stockholders   5,846,231    1,200,608 
Total weighted average number of shares of Common Stock related to outstanding options, excluded from the calculations of diluted loss per share (*)   29,217    27,518 

 

(*)The effect of the inclusion of option in 2024 and 2023 is anti-dilutive.

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.
