(1)

For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, a total of 0.4 million, 0.5 million and 0.8 million stock based awards, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their exercise prices would render them anti-dilutive.

(2)

Contingent shares represent additional shares to be issued for purchase price earned by former owners of businesses acquired by us once future conditions have been met. For further details, refer to Note 19, Acquisitions.
