Note 18 - Earnings Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share attributable to BKV for each period is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to BKV, adjusted for accretion to redemption value of the Class B Units, by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share attributable to BKV is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to BKV, adjusted for accretion to redemption value of the Class B Units, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the respective period. Any remeasurement of the accretion to redemption value of the Class B Units subject to possible redemption was considered to be dividends paid to the Class B Member. Accordingly, accretion is deducted from net income (loss) in the calculation of earnings per share. Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of potential common shares is calculated using the treasury method. The Company includes potential shares of common stock for PRSUs and TRSUs in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding based on the number of common shares that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period was also the end of the performance period. During periods in which the Company incurred a net loss, diluted weighted average common shares outstanding were equal to basic weighted average of common shares outstanding because the effect of all potential common shares was anti-dilutive.

The following is the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share attributable to BKV for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023:
