Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
(Losses) Earnings Per Share | (LOSSES) EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated with reference to the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Treasury shares are not included in the calculation. The computation of diluted EPS for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, assumes the conversion of potentially dilutive instruments. The components of the numerator for the calculation of basic and diluted EPS are as follows:
(in thousands of $) | Nine months ended September 30,
| 2017 |  | 2016 |
Net loss attributable to Golar LNG Ltd stockholders - basic and diluted | (183,526 | ) | (195,155 | )
The components of the denominator for the calculation of basic and diluted EPS are as follows:
(in thousands) | Nine months ended September 30,
| 2017 |  | 2016 |
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding | 100,599 |  | 93,050 |
Losses per share are as follows:
| Nine months ended September 30,
| 2017 |  | 2016 |
Basic and diluted | $ | (1.82 | ) | $ | (2.10 | )
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, stock options and convertible bonds have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because the effect was anti-dilutive.
