Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable
to Henry Schein, Inc. by the weighted-
average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Our diluted earnings per share is computed similarly
to basic earnings per share, except that it reflects the effect of common shares issuable
for unvested RSUs and upon
exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method in periods
in which they have a dilutive effect.
A reconciliation of shares used in calculating earnings per basic and
diluted share follows:
