| Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share |
Earnings Attributable to Liberty Media Corporation Stockholders Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented.
Series A and Series B Common Stock
The basic and diluted EPS calculations are based on the following weighted average outstanding shares of common stock, based on the conversion ratio of 1 to 1 utilized in the Split-Off, prior to the Split-Off, and the actual common stock after the Split-Off. Excluded from diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are less than a million potential common shares because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
