(1) For the quarter ended April 2, 2022, 960,412 (April 3, 2021 - 5,764,548) potential common shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share due to their effect of reducing the loss per share from continuing operations. Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options, RSUs, and certain contingently issuable PSUs. In addition, for the quarter ended April 2, 2022, stock options and RSUs to purchase or receive 1,122,466 (April 3, 2021 - 92,161) potential common shares were anti-dilutive because the assumed proceeds exceeded the average market price of the Common Shares for the respective periods.

(2) For the quarter ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, it was more dilutive to the loss per share from continuing operations to assume the Series B-1 preferred stock was not converted into Common Shares and, therefore, the numerator of the diluted loss per share calculation was not adjusted to add back the dividends and accretion on the Series B-1 preferred stock and the denominator was not adjusted to include 12,178,667 Common Shares issuable on an if-converted basis as at April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021.
