Schedule of basic and diluted earnings per share | The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic income per share is reconciled to shares used to calculate diluted income per share as follows for the periods presented:
(a) In July 2015, the remaining prepaid stock purchase contracts related to our previously outstanding Tangible Equity Units were settled in Beazer Homes' common stock. This conversion required us to issue approximately 5.2 million shares of common stock to the instrument holders. These instruments were dilutive from October 1, 2014 through July 15, 2015; once the shares were converted, they were included in the number of the weighted-average basic shares outstanding. (b) N/A - Not applicable |
