13. Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) are calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during each period. The determination of the weighted-average shares and diluted potential common shares for pre-
Spin-Off periods are based on the activity at pre-Spin-Off SLM. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the
basic and diluted EPS calculations follows.

respectively, were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.
