Impact of inventory choices and different fairness incentive awards

Non-IFRS Diluted

488,588,934



As a result of Thomson Reuters reported a internet loss for persevering with operations below IFRS for the three months ended December 31, 2021, the weighted-average variety of frequent shares used for fundamental and diluted loss per share is identical for all per-share calculations within the interval, because the impact of inventory choices and different fairness incentive awards would scale back the loss per share, and due to this fact be anti-dilutive. Because the firm’s non-IFRS measure “adjusted earnings” is a revenue, potential frequent shares are included, as they decrease adjusted EPS and are due to this fact dilutive.
