The dilutive effect of our Exchangeable Notes, during the period the principal was outstanding, was calculated using the if-converted method in accordance with ASU 2020-06. We were required, pursuant to the indenture governing the Exchangeable Notes, to settle the aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes in cash and were able to elect to settle any remaining exchange obligation (i.e., the stock price in excess of the exchange obligation) in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination thereof. Under the if-converted method, we included the number of shares required to satisfy the exchange obligation, assuming all the Exchangeable Notes are exchanged. All Exchangeable Notes were settled in the six months ended June 30, 2026. Refer to “Note 10 – Senior Notes Payable and Other Debt”. As a result, shares issued upon settlement were included in the calculation of basic weighted shares outstanding beginning on the settlement date. For the period in which the dilutive securities were outstanding, the average closing price of our common stock was used as the basis for determining the dilutive effect on earnings per share.

Our unsettled equity forward sales agreements do not impact basic earnings per share. We apply the treasury stock method to our unsettled equity forward sales agreements to determine their dilutive effect, if any. See “Note 14 – Stockholders' Equity.”
