Net earnings attributable to controlling interests$403 $272 $1,549 $1,344 
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding256.7 256.6 256.8 255.9 
Dilutive effect of stock options using the treasury stock method2.7 3.8 2.5 4.2 
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding259.4 260.4 259.3 260.1 
Basic net earnings per share$1.57 $1.06 $6.03 $5.25 
Diluted net earnings per share$1.55 $1.04 $5.97 $5.16 
Anti-dilutive stock-based awards of 3.2 million and 1.1 million shares were outstanding at the three-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which were excluded in the computation of the dilutive effect of stock-based awards for the three-month periods then ended. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards of 3.5 million and 0.9 million shares were outstanding at the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which were excluded in the computation of the dilutive effect of stock-based awards for the nine-month periods then ended. These stock‑based awards were excluded from the computation because the exercise prices on these stock‑based awards were greater than the average market price of our common shares during the respective period, and therefore, would be anti‑dilutive to earnings per share under the treasury stock method.
