Earnings per share

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2024

From time to time, we enter into forward equity sales agreements, which are discussed in Note 13 – “Stockholders’ equity” to

our unaudited consolidated financial statements. We consider the potential dilution resulting from the forward equity sales agreements

on the EPS calculations. At inception, the agreements do not have an effect on the computation of basic EPS as no shares are

delivered until settlement. The common shares issued upon the settlement of the forward equity sales agreements, weighted for the

period these common shares were outstanding, are included in the denominator of basic EPS. To determine the dilution resulting from

the forward equity sales agreements during the period of time prior to settlement, we calculate the number of weighted-average shares

outstanding – diluted using the treasury stock method.

We account for unvested restricted stock awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends as participating securities and

include these securities in the computation of EPS using the two-class method. Our forward equity sales agreements are not

participating securities and are therefore not included in the computation of EPS using the two-class method. Under the two-class

method, we allocate net income (after amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests) to common stockholders and unvested restricted

stock awards by using the weighted-average shares of each class outstanding for quarter-to-date and year-to-date periods

independently, based on their respective participation rights to dividends declared (or accumulated) and undistributed earnings.
