The Company applies the treasury stock method to determine the dilutive weighted-average common shares outstanding for RSUs and stock options. The Company applies the “if-converted” method to the Subco Units to determine the dilutive impact, if any, of the exchange right included in the Subco Units.

The amount of anti-dilutive shares was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2025. There were no anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Certain performance-based awards, contingently issuable shares and Subco Units were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because the designated contingencies were not met.
