Earnings Per Share Attributable To RR Donnelley Common Shareholders

10. Earnings per Share Attributable to RR Donnelley Common Shareholders

As discussed in Note 9, the Company received an initial delivery of 19.9 million shares under the ASR. The initial delivery of shares resulted in an immediate reduction of the outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted net earnings per share from the effective date of the agreement. Based upon the volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock through September 30, 2011, the shares related to the forward stock purchase component of the ASR were anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
