7. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Amkor common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is reduced for treasury stock.

Diluted EPS is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and unvested restricted shares. The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted EPS:
