(3) 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, Series B and Series C Common Stock The basic and diluted EPS calculations are based on the following weighted average outstanding shares of common stock. As discussed in note 1, on July 23, 2014 the Company completed a stock dividend of two shares of Series C common stock for every share of Series A or Series B common stock held as of the record date. Therefore, all prior period outstanding share amounts for purposes of the calculation of EPS have been retroactively adjusted for comparability.
