ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
Earnings per share
The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Parent Company and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. When calculating diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which during reported periods relates to share-based payment arrangements issued to employees. The shared-based awards are dilutive if the exercise price is less than the quoted stock price and increases with the size of the difference.
