13.    Earnings Per Share

 

Occidental’s instruments containing rights to nonforfeitable dividends granted in share-based payment transactions are considered participating securities prior to vesting, and, therefore, have been included in the earnings allocations in computing basic and diluted EPS under the two-class method.

 

Basic EPS was computed by dividing net income attributable to common stock, net of income attributable to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period, net of treasury shares and including vested but unissued shares and share units. The computation of diluted EPS further reflected the dilutive effect of stock options and unvested stock awards.

 

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:
