______________
(a) Details of share options in issue have been described more fully in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.
Basic earnings per ordinary share (EPS) for Ryanair Holdings plc for the years ended March 31, 2010,
2009 and 2008 has been computed by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to shareholders by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share takes account solely of the potential future exercise of share options granted
under the Company’s share option schemes. For the 2010 fiscal year, the weighted average number of shares in
issue of 1,481.7 million includes weighted average share options assumed to be converted equal to 5.3 million.
For the 2009 fiscal year, there was no difference in the weighted average number of ordinary shares used for the
basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share, as the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares (2.8 million
outstanding) was anti-dilutive. For the 2008 fiscal year, the weighted average number of shares in issue of
1,524.9 million includes weighted average share options assumed to be converted equal to 12.9 million.
