Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profi t attributable to equity holders of the Company
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the fi nancial year.
For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the profi t attributable to equity holders of the Company
is adjusted to take into account effects of dilutive potential ordinary shares of subsidiary companies and
the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company in issue is adjusted to take into account
effects of dilutive options of the Company.
34.0 million (2007-08: 12.2 million) of the share options granted to employees under the existing employee
share option plans have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are
anti-dilutive for the current and previous years presented.
