Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Share

Earnings per Share

We calculated basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) using the following:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,				For the Three Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2024		2023		2024		2023
Net earnings	$	5,932	$	3,904	$	3,803	$	2,117
Less: Distributed and undistributed earnings attributable to share-based awards	(14)		(7)		(9)		(4)
Earnings for basic and diluted EPS	$	5,918	$	3,897	$	3,794	$	2,113
Weighted-average shares for basic and diluted EPS	1,738		1,784		1,718		1,782

Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in our EPS calculation pursuant to the two-class method.
