Recognition and measurement Diluted earnings attributable to BHP shareholders are equal to the earnings attributable to BHP shareholders. Following unification of the BHP corporate structure on 31 January 2022, the aggregate weighted average number of ordinary shares of only BHP Group Limited is considered in the composition of basic earnings per share. The calculation of the number of ordinary shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share is the weighted average number of ordinary shares of BHP Group Limited outstanding during the period after deduction of the number of shares held by the BHP Group Limited Employee Equity Trust. For the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the effect of 9 million dilutive shares has been taken into account for the year ended 30 June 2024 (2023: 9 million shares; 2022: 10 million shares). The Group’s only potential dilutive ordinary shares are share awards granted under the employee share ownership plans for which terms and conditions are described in note 26 ‘Employee share ownership plans’. Diluted earnings per share calculation excludes instruments which are considered antidilutive. At 30 June 2024, there are no instruments which are considered antidilutive (2023: nil; 2022: nil).
