Basic & Diluted Earnings per Share
Basic & Diluted Earnings per Share (EPS) is a financial metric that indicates the amount of net income earned by a company for each outstanding share of its common stock. Basic earnings per share includes only the number of common shares outstanding and is calculated by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur from the exercise of stock options, warrants, and convertible securities. This metric is important for investors and analysts as it helps in analyzing the profitability and financial health of the company, and therefore its potential for growth and success.
