For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, 16.5 million and 15.8 million, respectively, of potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of fully diluted EPS because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Anti-dilutive securities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 included 16.3 million participating RSUs and 0.2 million participating restricted stock awards.
