Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]

Shareholders' Equity

Shareholders’ Equity

The reconciliation from basic to diluted earnings per share for both the numerators and denominators is as follows (table in millions):

	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2014			March 31, 2013
Numerator:
Net income attributable to EMC Corporation	$	392		$	580
Incremental dilution from VMware	(2		)	(1		)
Net income – dilution attributable to EMC Corporation	$	390		$	579
Denominator:
Weighted average shares, basic	2,029			2,102
Weighted common stock equivalents	26			30
Assumed conversion of the 2013 Notes and associated warrants	21			57
Weighted average shares, diluted	2,076			2,189

Due to the cash settlement feature of the principal amount of the 2013 Notes, we only included the impact of the premium feature in our diluted earnings per share calculation when the 2013 Notes were convertible due to maturity or when the average stock price exceeded the conversion price of the 2013 Notes.

Concurrent with the issuance of the 2011 Notes and 2013 Notes, we also entered into separate transactions in which we sold warrants to acquire, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 215 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of approximately $19.55 per share of our common stock. Approximately half of the associated warrants were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2012. The remaining 109 million warrants were exercised between February 18, 2014 and March 17, 2014. These warrants were settled with shares of our common stock. As such, we included the impact of the remaining outstanding sold warrants in our diluted earnings per share calculation during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as the average stock price exceeded the exercise price, and during the three months ended March 31, 2014 for the period the warrants were outstanding.

Restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and options to acquire shares of our common stock in the amount of 6 million and 3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive. The incremental dilution from VMware represents the impact of VMware’s dilutive securities on EMC’s consolidated diluted net income per share and is calculated by multiplying the difference between VMware’s basic and diluted earnings per share by the number of VMware shares owned by EMC.

Repurchase of Common Stock

We utilize both authorized and unissued shares (including repurchased shares) for all issuances under our equity plans. Our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 250 million shares of our common stock in February 2013. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we spent $405 million to repurchase 16 million shares of our common stock. Of the 250 million shares authorized for repurchase, we have repurchased 110 million shares at a total cost of $2.8 billion, leaving a remaining balance of 140 million shares authorized for future repurchases.  We plan to spend up to $6.0 billion in the repurchase of shares during the three years ending December 31, 2015. This includes $3.0 billion spent during the year ended December 31, 2013 and $2.0 billion and $1.0 billion to be spent during the years ending December 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively.

Cash Dividend on Common Stock

In May 2013, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend to EMC shareholders of $0.10 per share of common stock. On April 17, 2014, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly cash dividend paid to EMC shareholders to $0.115 per share of common stock. Our Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend at this new rate which will be paid on July 23, 2014 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 1, 2014.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, EMC paid a cash dividend of $202 million. On April 23, 2014, EMC paid a cash dividend of $205 million to shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 1, 2014, which was declared on February 6, 2014.
