(1) Restricted stock awards and certain restricted stock units granted to employees by the Company are considered participating securities. For the three months ended February 28, 2026, dividends paid to common stockholders and participating securities exceeded net income. As a result, the allocation to participating securities in the three months ended February 28, 2026 represents dividends paid to participating securities as participating securities do not participate in undistributed losses.
