sornings pr Stare mon - 341 PAS 33 Earnings per Share earning Objectives 1, Explain how basic EPS is computed. Explain how cited EPS s compute Introduction pas 33 prescribes the principles in computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) to promote inter- and intra-comparability of performance of entities. Because of differing accounting policies, PAS 33 recognizes that EPS data may have limitations - particularly on “eamings” which is the numerator in the EPS calculation. Therefore, the focus of PAS 33 is on the consistent determination of the denominator of the EPS calculation. PAS 33 requires publicly listed entities, including those in the process of enlisting, to present EPS information. A publicly listed entity is one whose ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares are traded in a public market (e.g., Philippine Stock Exchange ‘PSE’). Non-publicly listed EPS information. However, toapply PAS 33. If both consolidated and separate financial statements are Prepared, EPS is required only for the consolidated financial statements. entities are not required to present if they choose to do so, they will need Earnings per Share / Earnings ye share (EPS) is @ computation made for ordinary shares, It is a form of profitability ratio which provides a measure of how much profit (loss) each ordinary share has earned (incurred) during the period: 342 Se = —— ES Normally, no EPS is computed for preference sh; because they have a fixed return, as represented by their divideng rates. In some cases, however, EPS may be computed fog preference shares when they are also entitled to a Variable retum, lates, in addition to their fixed return (e.g. participating Preference shares). Such preference shares are considered spec cial ordinary shares tor purposes of EPS computation. * Ordinary share —is “an equity instrument that is subordinate to all other classes of equity instruments.” (Pas 33.5) Ordinary shares participate in profit for the period after all other classes of shares (e.g., preference shares) have participated. An entity may have more than one type of ordinary shares, often referred to as “alphabet shares.” For example, an entity may have “Class A” and “Class B” ordinary shares. One class, called the “super voting shares,” has more voting rights than the other. One purpose of issuing “super voting” shares is to give key company insiders (e.g,, founders and executives) greater control over the company’s voting rights. This enables them to control corporate policies and management decisions. » Preference share — is one that has preference over other classes of shares, such as preference over dividends or preference over net assets in cases of liquidation, but typically does not have voting rights. Types of Earnings per Share PAS 33 requires the following two presentations of EPS: 1. Basic earnings per share 2. Diluted earnings per share If the entity does not have dilutive potential ordinary shares, it presents basic earnings per share only. gasic Earnings per Share PS is computed as follows: Basic asic EPS ee es) less Preferred dividends s y Earnings @ Profit (loss) is net of income tax expense. It includes any exceptional, unusual or infrequent gains or losses. @ Preferred dividends are deducted as follows: a. If the preference shares are cumulative, one-year dividend is deducted, whether declared or not. b. If the preference shares are non-cumulative, only the dividend declared during the period is deducted. Dividends in arrears (ie. those pertaining to prior periods) are ignored in the computation of EPS. The numerator (or the difference between © and ©) ibutable to ordinary shareholders. This represents the profit or loss attri amount is also adjusted for the following, which are treated like preferred dividends: a, Amortization of discount oF premium on increasing rate preference shares. Discount amortization is deducted from, while premium amortization is added to, profit or loss. b.

Conversely, a ‘gain added to profit or loss. Shares © The denominator is the weighted average number Of shares outstanding. This is computed by applying a time-weighting factor to the number of ordinary shares at the beginning of the Period and to all issuances and reacquisitions during the period. The time-weighting factor is the number of days that the Shares are outstanding over the total number of days in the period. However, a reasonable approximation of the weighted average (e.g., months outstanding) is allowed > Outstanding shares are those that are entitled to Participate in dividends. Outstanding shares are (1) issued shares plus (2) subscribed shares minus (3) treasury shares. Shares are usually time-weighted from the date consideration is receivable (which is generally the date of theit issue). Thus: a. Shares issued outright are averaged from the issuance date. b. Subscribed shares are averaged from the subscription date. c. Treasury shares are averaged Las reduction to the number of outstanding shares from the reacquisition date; or ii, as addition to the number of outstanding shares from the reissuance date Other events: ¢ Shares issued in a business combination are averaged from the acquisition date. * Shares issuable upon the conversion of a mandatorily convertible instrument are averaged from the date the contrat is entered into. * Contingently issuable shares are averaged when tt conditions have been satistied: = f oo 345 y Contingently issuable ordinary. shai — issuable for little Y shares are “ordinary shares or no cas ‘ the SitSIaDHOH OF medics or other consideration upon ified conditions e1 share agreement.” (Pas 335) 8 Ina ‘contingent artly paid shares are treated as .? oar res eated as fractional shares to the extent of their participation in dividends. Partly paid shares that are not entitled to dividends are treated as equivalent of warrants or options in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. * Under the Philippine Corporation Code, subscribed shares are entitled to participate in dividends in full. Accordingly, subscribed shares are treated as fully outstanding in EPS computation. In some countries where partly paid shares are entitled to partial dividends only, the subscribed shares are treated as partly outstanding. For example, a 50% paid subscribed shares that are entitled to only 50% dividends are treated as 50% outstanding. Illustration: Entity A had 50,000, P10 par, 6% cumulative preference shares outstanding all throughout 20x1. Entity A reported profit after tax of 1,200,000 for the year ended December 31, 20x1. The movements in the number of ordinary shares are as follows: 1/1/20x1.

Retrospective adjustments When ordinary shares are issued without a corresponding change in resources (assets), the basic and diluted EPS and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented are adjusted retrospectively. Examples of issuance of ordinary shares without a corresponding change in resources include: a. Share or stock dividend (capitalization or bonus issue) b. A bonus element in any other issue (e.g., preemptive stock rights) c. Share split or stock split-up (i.e., increase in number of shares with corresponding decrease in par value); and d. Reverse share split or stock split-down (consolidation of shares or decrease in number of shares with corresponding increase in par value). The aforementioned do not affect the entity's ass because they are issued for free. tgs PET Share poitsn 347 lustration: “yA had 100,000 ordi : gntity A inary shares outstandi goxt.
