Basic earnings per common share	$	1.06	$	0.77	$	1.21	$	2.17

Total shares-diluted (denominator)	32,425,300		31,826,845		32,106,661		31,811,505

Diluted earnings per common share	$	1.05	$	0.76	$	1.20	$	2.15

Anti-dilutive weighted shares excluded from the calculation of earnings per common share:
Stock-based awards	238,226		239,540		245,633		256,269
0.75% convertible senior notes due 2021(1) (2)	601,349		5,005,734		2,116,093		5,005,734
Warrants(1) (2)	601,349		5,005,734		2,116,093		5,005,734
Total	1,440,924		10,251,008		4,477,819		10,267,737

(1) Under the treasury stock method, our 0.75% convertible senior notes (“Notes”) will have a dilutive impact on earnings per common share if our average stock price for the period exceeds the $96.89 per share conversion price. Our average stock price did not exceed the per share conversion price during the three or nine months ended October 24, 2020; therefore, there was no dilutive impact on earnings per common share for these periods. The warrants associated with our Notes will have a dilutive impact on earnings per common share if our average stock price for the period exceeds the $130.43 per share warrant strike price. As our average stock price did not exceed the strike price for the warrants for any of the periods presented, the underlying common shares were anti-dilutive as reflected in the table above.

(2) In connection with the purchase of $401.7 million of the Notes in fiscal 2021 and $25.0 million in fiscal 2020, we unwound convertible note hedge transactions and warrants proportionately to the number of Notes, resulting in a decrease in the number of excluded weighted shares.

In connection with the offering of the Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions with counterparties for the purpose of reducing the potential dilution to common stockholders from the conversion of the notes and offsetting any potential cash payments in excess of the principal amount of the notes. Prior to conversion, the convertible note hedge is not included for purposes of the calculation of earnings per common share as its effect would be anti-dilutive. Upon conversion, the convertible note hedge is expected to offset the dilutive effect of the convertible senior notes when the average stock price for the period is

above $96.89 per share. See Note 13, Debt, for additional information related to our convertible senior notes, warrant transactions, and hedge transactions.
