The method used to calculate earnings per share is set out below. Treasury shares are detailed in Note 14.1.2. Potentially dilutive instruments are presented in Note 5.4.
Earnings per share as stated in the income statement are calculated on the basis of the Group’s share in the net profit as follows: basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average p number of shares outstanding during the financial year, calculated according to the dates when the funds arising from cash share issues were received and, in respect of shares issued for contributions in kind via equity, the date on which the
corresponding new Group companies were consolidated for the first time; diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the p Group’s share of net profit and the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of share subscription option plans in force at the financial year-end and free share plans. The treasury stock method is applied on the basis of the average share price for the year.
