Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings per Share Earnings per Share
The holders of our Class A and Class B common stock (together, "common stock") have identical liquidation and dividend rights but different voting rights. Accordingly, we present the earnings per share (EPS) for Class A and Class B common stock together.

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of our common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of fully diluted common stock outstanding and assumes the conversion of our Class B common stock to Class A common stock.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, approximately 60 million and 47 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation as including them would have an anti-dilutive effect. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, shares with an anti-dilutive effect were approximately 1 million.

The numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for our common stock are calculated as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):
