Usio, Inc. Earnings Per Share Disclosure
Note 13. Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share (EPS) was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period in addition to stock awards that have not yet vested, as they are fully participating shares for the calculation of earnings per share. Diluted EPS differs from basic EPS due to the assumed conversion of potentially dilutive options and warrants that were outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations for net income (loss).

The warrants to purchase shares of common stock that were outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024 that were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive, are as follows:

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.
