Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
EARNINGS PER SHARE | EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") was computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Global Payments by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Earnings available to common shareholders is the same as reported net income (loss) attributable to Global Payments for all periods presented. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Global Payments by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of share-based awards, convertible notes or other potential securities that would have a dilutive effect on EPS. All stock options with an exercise price lower than the average market share price of our common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are assumed to have a dilutive effect on EPS. Due to a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026, no incremental shares are included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the effect would be antidilutive. The dilutive share base for the three months ended March 31, 2026 excluded approximately 0.9 million shares related to stock options that would have an antidilutive effect on the computation of diluted EPS. The dilutive share base for the three months ended March 31, 2025, excluded approximately 0.8 million shares related to stock options that would have an antidilutive effect on the computation of diluted EPS. The effect of the potential shares needed to settle the conversion spread on our convertible notes is included in diluted EPS if the effect is dilutive. The effect depends on the market share price of our common stock at the time of conversion and would be dilutive if the average market share price of our common stock for the period exceeds the conversion price. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the convertible notes were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Further, the effect of the related capped call transactions is not included in the computation of diluted EPS as it is always anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted EPS for continuing and discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
