Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Class A common stockholders by the weighted-average number of Class A common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s unvested restricted stock awards are considered participating securities, as they entitle holders to non-forfeitable dividend rights, and basic EPS is therefore calculated using the two-class method.
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Class A common stockholders (as adjusted, as shown in the table below) by the weighted-average number of Class A common shares outstanding during the period, increased for the assumed issuance of additional shares from potentially dilutive securities. For convertible debt instruments, the if-converted method is used, which assumes conversion at the beginning of the period (or at issuance, if later), and includes an adjustment to add back related after-tax interest expense to the numerator. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS in periods in which their effect would be 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.
