18. Basic and diluted earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by a weighted average
number of ordinary shares (being the ordinary shares in issue during the year less own shares held in Treasury and in employee trusts, which are
treated as cancelled).
The calculation of diluted earnings per share reects the potentially dilutive effect of employee share incentive plans. The earnings gures used
in the calculations are unchanged for diluted earnings per share.
