Earnings Per Share and Dividends [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share and Dividends | 2. Earnings Per Share and Dividends a. Earnings Per Share The Company calculates its basic earnings per share by dividing net income attributable to Jabil Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted earnings per share is calculated in a similar manner, but includes the effect of dilutive securities. To the extent these securities are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. No potential common shares relating to outstanding stock awards have been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of the Company’s net loss for the three months ended May 31, 2017. The Company accordingly excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share 4,230,665 restricted stock awards and 513,693 stock appreciation rights for the three months ended May 31, 2017. For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, 334,152 stock appreciation rights were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2016, 2,124,084 and 2,454,562 stock appreciation rights, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. b.
