Urban Edge Earnings per Share
We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of Urban Edge common shares and participating securities is calculated according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. Restricted shares issued pursuant to our share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, and as such, have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends.
The computation of diluted EPS reflects potential dilution of securities by adding potential common shares, including stock options and unvested restricted shares, to the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there were options outstanding for 333,972, 2,603,664, and 2,930,762 shares, respectively, that potentially could be exercised for common shares. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, no options were included in the diluted EPS calculation as their exercise prices were higher than the average market prices of our common shares. In addition, as of December 31, 2025 there were 74,037 unvested restricted shares outstanding that potentially could become unrestricted common shares. The computation of diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 included 78,977, 107,821, and 90,804 weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding, respectively, as their effect is dilutive.
The effect of the redemption of OP and vested LTIP units is not reflected in the computation of basic earnings per share, as they are redeemable for common shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The assumed redemption of OP and vested LTIP units is included in the determination of diluted earnings per share when they have a dilutive effect on the calculation.
