Shares in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares for the three-month period ended September 30, 2017 due to the net loss in that period. The shares excluded from the calculation were 22,459,868 shares.
Dilutive shares include our share-based employee compensation plans and a weighted average portion of the warrants issued to AIG shareholders as part of AIG’s recapitalization in January 2011. The number of shares excluded from diluted shares outstanding was 2.4 million and 2.0 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2017, respectively, and 0.1 million and 0.2 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016, respectively, because the effect of including those shares in the calculation would have been anti-dilutive.
