(1)   The dilutive effect of stock options was calculated using the treasury stock method. When the exercise price of outstanding
 options
is greater than the average market price of our common shares, the options are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended July 31, 2026, no outstanding options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended July 31, 2025, an average of 915,683 outstanding options with an average exercise price of $177.97 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the nine months ended July 31, 2026,
no
outstanding options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the nine months ended July 31, 2025, an average of 762,532 outstanding options with an average exercise price of $177.97 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
