As discussed in note 2, subsequent to the Recapitalization, Â鶹×îгöÆ· distributed subscription rights to holders of Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock, which were priced at a discount to the market value, to acquire additional shares of Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock. The rights offering, because of the discount, isÌýconsidered a stock dividend which requires retroactive treatment for prior periods for the weighted average sharesÌýoutstanding.
|
|
(b)
|
|
Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS during periods in which losses are reported since the result would be antidilutive.
|
|
(c)
|
|
As discussed in note 2, following the Recapitalization and SeriesÌýC Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock rights offering, the number of notional shares representing the Formula One Group’s intergroup interest in the Braves Group was adjusted to 9,084,940 shares. The intergroup interest is a quasi-equity interest which is not represented by outstanding shares of common stock; rather, the Formula One Group has an attributed value in the Braves Group which is generally stated in terms of a number of shares of stock issuable to the Formula One Group with respect to its interest in the Braves Group. Each reporting period, the notional shares representing the intergroup interest are marked to fair value. As the notional shares underlying the intergroup interest are not represented by outstanding shares of common stock, such shares have not been officially designated Series A, B or C Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock. However, Â鶹×îгöÆ· has assumed that the notional shares (if and when issued) would be comprised of Series C Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock in order to not dilute voting percentages. Therefore, the market price of Series C Â鶹×îгöÆ· Braves common stock is used for the quarterly mark-to-market adjustment through the unaudited attributed consolidated statements of operations. The notional shares representing the intergroup interest have no impact on the basic earnings per share weighted average number of shares outstanding. However, in periods where the Braves Group has net earnings, the notional shares representing the intergroup interest are included in the diluted earnings per share WASO as if the shares had been issued and outstanding during the period. In periods where the Braves Group has net earnings, an adjustment is also made to the numerator in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the unrealized gain or loss incurred from marking the intergroup interest to fair value during the period as follows:
