| | |
| Diluted earnings per share are calculated as:
| |

| Profit attributable to ordinary shareholders '''÷''' Diluted weighted average number of shares in issue during the period.
| |

| | |
| Earnings for the period are £40 million and the diluted number of shares is 52 million.
| |
| | |
| EPS = £40m / 52m
| |
| | |
| = £0.77 (= 77 pence)
| |
| | |
| | |
| 'Diluted' earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of shares for the effects of 'dilution' of the current ordinary shareholders' entitlements.
| |
| | |
| | |
| 'Dilution' is defined in IAS 33 as:
| |
| | |
| The reduction in EPS assuming that the number of shares increases because:
| |
| #Convertible instruments are converted,
| |
| #Options or warrants are exercised, or
| |
| #Ordinary shares are issued on the satisfaction of specified conditions.

| | |
| Relevant accounting standards include IAS 33 and Section 1 of FRS 102.
