ANNUAL REPORT 2009/10
137
11 Earnings Per Share (continued)
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by the
weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the financial year.
For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the profit 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.
28.4 million (2008-09: 34.0 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.
