Diluted EPS Shares 177,768,386 165,549,957
(1)   Shares outstanding represents shares issued less shares repurchased in treasury stock. Shares issued includes public and private offerings, vested and unvested restricted stock, distributions related to restricted stock units, deferred compensation plans, employee stock purchase plan and stock option exercises. Shares issued does not include undistributed vested and unvested restricted stock units.
 
(2) As restricted stock is contingent upon a future service condition, unvested shares are removed from shares outstanding in the calculation of basic EPS as Jefferies obligation to issue these shares remains contingent.
 
(3) As vested restricted stock units are no longer contingent upon a future service condition or any other contingency and are issuable upon a certain date in the future, vested restricted stock units are added to shares outstanding in the calculation of basic EPS.
 
(4) Other shares issuable not pursuant to any contingency include shares issuable under certain deferred compensation plans and shares issuable in connection with earnout agreements.
 
(5) Calculated under the treasury stock method in accordance with FASB 128, Earnings per Share. The treasury stock method assumes the issuance of only a net incremental number of shares as proceeds from issuance are assumed to be used to repurchase shares at the average stock price for the period.
 
(6) Calculated under the if-converted method in accordance with FASB 128, Earnings per Share. The if-converted method assumes the conversion of convertible securities at the beginning of the period.
