(a)The incremental dilution from VMware, Inc. represents the impact of VMware, Inc.’s dilutive securities on diluted earnings per share of Dell Technologies Common Stock, and is calculated by multiplying the difference between VMware, Inc.’s basic and diluted earnings per share by the number of shares of VMware, Inc. common stock held by the Company. For the three and six months ended August 2, 2019, the incremental dilution from VMware, Inc. was calculated by the Company without regard to VMware, Inc.’s required retrospective adjustments for the Pivotal acquisition in its stand-alone financial statements, and there was no incremental dilution from Pivotal due to its net loss position. For both periods presented, there was no incremental dilution from Secureworks due to its net loss position.
