Simple and Complex
Capital Structures
•
Dilutive securities are securities whose
assumed exercise or conversion results in
a reduction in earnings per share, or lead
to a dilution in earnings per share.
•
Antidilutive securities are securities
whose assumed conversion or exercise
results in an increase in earnings per
share, or lead to antidilution in earnings per
share.
(continued)
18-2
Simple and Complex
Capital Structures
•
A company’s capital structure may be
classified as simplex or complex.
•
If a company has only common stock, or
common and nonconvertible preferred
stock outstanding and there are no
convertible securities, stock options,
warrants or other rights outstanding, it is
classified as a simple capital structure.
(continued)
18-3
Simple and Complex
Capital Structures
•
If net income includes extraordinary gains
or losses or other below-the-line items, a
separate EPS figure is required for each
major component of income, as well as for
net income. These historical EPS amounts
are referred to as basic earnings per
share.
(continued)
18-4
Simple and Complex
Capital Structures
•
•
Potential EPS dilution exists if the EPS
would decrease or the loss per share
would increase as a result of the
conversion of securities or exercise stock
options, warrants, or other rights based on
the conditions existing at the financial
statement date.
A company with potential earnings per
share dilution is considered to have a
complex capital structure.

Issuance or Reacquisition of
Common Stock
Net Income – Preferred Dividends
Weighted-Average
Common Shares Outstanding
The weighted-average number of
shares can be computed by
determining “month-shares” of
outstanding stock and dividing by 12.

Stock Dividends and
Stock Splits
A company had 2,600 shares of common stock
outstanding on January 1. The following activities
affecting common stock took place during the year.
Dates Economic Event
Changes in Shares Outstanding
Feb. 1 Exercise of stock option
+ 400
May 1 10% stock dividend
(3,000 x 10%)
+ 300
Sept 1 Sale of stock for cash
+ 1,200
Nov. 1 Purchase of treasury stock
– 400
Dec. 1 3-for-1 stock split
+ 8,200
(continued)
18-8
Stock Dividends and
Stock Splits
•
•
All stock splits and stock dividends must be
incorporated into the computation of
weighted average shares outstanding.
When comparative financial statements are
presented, the common shares outstanding
for all periods shown must be adjusted to
reflect any stock dividend or stock split in
the current period.
(continued)
18-9
Stock Dividends and
Stock Splits
•
Retroactive adjustments must be made
even if a stock dividend or stock split
occurs after the end of the period but
before the financial statements are
prepared.
•
Disclosure of the situation should be made
in a note to the financial statements.
(continued)
18-10
Preferred Stock Included in
Capital Structure
•
•
Basic EPS reflects only income available to
common stockholders; it does not include
preferred stock.
When a capital structure includes preferred
stock, dividends on preferred stock should
be deducted from income before
extraordinary or other special items from
net income in arriving at earnings related to
common shares.
(continued)
18-11
Preferred Stock Included in
Capital Structure
•
If preferred dividends are cumulative, the full
amount of dividends on preferred stock for
the period, whether declared or not, should
be deducted from income in arriving at the
earnings or loss balance related to the
common stock.

• On June 30, 2013 the firm paid:
 An 8% dividend on preferred stock (10,000
shares at $100 par × 0.08 = $80,000)
 A $0.30 per share dividend on common
stock (300,000 shares × $0.30 = $90,000)
• These cash dividends would not affect the
weighted-average number of shares of common
stock.

On June 30, 2012, the company issued
100,000 shares of common stock. After the
issuance, the firm has 300,000 shares of
common stock outstanding. However, these
300,000 are only outstanding for six
months, or one-half of the year.

Participating Securities and
the Two-Class Method
•
Sometimes a company issues more than
one class of stock with ownership privileges.
•
Different classes do not always have the
same claim upon dividends.
•
In such a case, earnings attributed to each
share of the different classes of stock are
different and EPS is computed using the
two-class method.
18-25
Dilutive Earnings per Share—
Options, Warrants, and Rights
•
•
The two major types of potentially dilutive
securities are (1) common stock options,
warrants, and rights, and (2) convertible
bonds and convertible preferred stock.
All computations of diluted EPS are made as
if the exercise or conversion took place at the
beginning of the company’s fiscal year or at
the issue date of the stock option or
convertible security, whichever comes later.
18-26
Stock Options,
Warrants, and Rights
•
•
Stock options, warrants, and rights provide no
cash yield to the investors, but they have
value because they permit the acquisition of
common stock.
It is assumed that exercise of options,
warrants, or rights takes place as of the
beginning of the year or the date they are
issued, whichever comes later.
(continued)
18-27
Stock Options,
Warrants, and Rights
•
•
Options, warrants, and rights are included in
the computation of diluted EPS for a particular
period only if they are dilutive.
The FASB selected the treasury stock
method and recommended it be assumed that
the cash proceeds from the exercise of
options, warrants, or rights to purchase
common stock on the market (treasury stock)
at the average market price.
(continued)
18-28
Stock Options,
Warrants, and Rights
Treasury Stock Method Demonstrated
•
At the beginning of the current year,
employees were granted options to acquire
5,000 shares of common stock at $40 per
share.
•
The average market price of the stock for
the year is $50.
(continued)
18-29
Stock Options,
Warrants, and Rights
The number of shares (using the treasury
stock method) to use for calculating diluted
earnings per share is calculated as follows:
Number of shares sold
Proceeds from sale (5,000 × $40) = $200,000
Number of shares that could be purchased with
the proceeds ($200,000/$50)
Number of shares used for diluted EPS

• Rasband Corporation had net income of $92,800
for the year.
• There are 100,000 shares of common stock
outstanding all year.
• There are 20,000 options outstanding to purchase
shares.
• The exercise price per share is $6.
• The average market price per share during the
year was $10.

Diluted Earnings per Share―
Convertible Securities
•
The method of including convertible
securities as if conversion had taken
place in the EPS computation is referred
to as the if-converted method.
•
To test for dilution, each potentially
dilutive convertible must be evaluated
individually.
18-35
Multiple Potentially
Dilutive Securities
•
•
•
The FASB requires selection of the
combination of securities producing the
lowest possible EPS figure.
To avoid having to test a large number of
different combinations to find the lowest one,
companies can compute the incremental EPS
for each potentially dilutive security.
Any dilutive stock options and warrants are
considered first before introducing convertible
securities into the computations.
18-36
Financial Statement Presentation
Firms are required to provide the following
disclosure items in the notes to the financial
statements:
1. A reconciliation of both the numerators and
the denominators of the basic and diluted
EPS computations for income from continuing
operations.
2. The effect that preferred dividends have on
the EPS computations.
(continued)
18-37
Financial Statement Presentation
3. Securities that could potentially dilute basic
EPS in the future that were not included in
computing diluted EPS this period because
those securities were antidilutive for the
current period.
4. Disclosure of transactions that occurred after
the period ended but prior to the issuance of
financial statements that would have
materially affected the number of common
shares outstanding or potentially outstanding
such as the issuance of stock options.
