Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)
 
We present both basic and diluted EPS.  We compute basic EPS by dividing net income available to common shareholders allocable to unrestricted common shares by the weighted average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding during the period after allocating undistributed earnings between common shareholders and participating securities under the two-class method. Our participating securities include restricted shares and PIUs and deferred share awards not previously settled by common share issuances.  Our computation of diluted EPS is similar except that:
 
the denominator is increased to include: (1) the weighted average number of potential additional common shares that would have been outstanding if securities that are convertible into common shares were converted; and (2) the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests and share-based compensation awards using the if-converted or treasury stock methods; and
the numerator is adjusted to add back any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion into common shares that we add to the denominator.

We compute diluted EPS using the treasury stock method for unvested restricted shares, TB-PIUs and deferred share awards and the if-converted method for common units, redeemable noncontrolling interests, PB-PIUs and vested PIUs and deferred share awards not previously settled by common share issuances.
Summaries of the numerator and denominator for purposes of basic and diluted EPS calculations are set forth below (in thousands, except per share data):
For the Three Months Ended March 31,

Numerator:  
Net income attributable to common shareholders$32,609 $78,779 
Income attributable to share-based compensation awards for basic EPS(150)(297)
Numerator for basic EPS on net income attributable to common shareholders32,459 78,482 
Redeemable noncontrolling interests— (64)
Adjustment to income attributable to share-based compensation awards for diluted EPS21 49 
Numerator for diluted EPS on net income attributable to common shareholders$32,480 $78,467 
Denominator (all weighted averages):  
Denominator for basic EPS (common shares)112,231 112,127 
Dilutive effect of redeemable noncontrolling interests— 91 
Dilutive effect of share-based compensation awards509 410 
Denominator for diluted EPS (common shares) 112,740 112,628 
Basic EPS attributable to common shareholders$0.29 $0.70 
Diluted EPS attributable to common shareholders$0.29 $0.70 

Our diluted EPS computations do not include the effects of the following securities since the conversions of such securities would increase diluted EPS for the respective periods (in thousands):

Conversion of redeemable noncontrolling interests947 972 

The following securities were also excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their effect was antidilutive:

weighted average restricted shares and deferred share awards for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 of 429,000 and 398,000, respectively;
weighted average TB-PIUs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 of 206,000 and 181,000, respectively; and
weighted average vested PIUs for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 of 188,000 and 103,000, respectively.

Our 5.25% Notes have an exchange settlement feature under which the principal amount of notes exchanged is payable in cash, with the remainder of the exchange obligation, if any, as determined based on the exchange price per common share at the time of settlement, payable in cash, common shares or a combination thereof at our election. These notes did not affect our diluted EPS reported above since the weighted average closing price of our common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was less than the exchange price applicable to that period.
