Earnings Per Share Reconciliation [Abstract] |
Net Income Per Common Share | Net Income Per Common Share Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to Vail Resorts stockholders by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, resulting in the issuance of shares of common stock that would then share in the earnings of Vail Resorts. Presented below is basic and diluted EPS for the years ended July 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The Company computes the effect of dilutive securities using the treasury stock method and average market prices during the period. The number of shares issuable on the exercise of share based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive totaled approximately 11,000, 17,000 and 19,000 for the years ended July 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In fiscal 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the commencement of a regular quarterly cash dividend on the Company's common stock at an annual rate of $0.60 per share, subject to quarterly declaration. Since the initial commencement of a regular quarterly cash dividend, the Company's Board of Directors has annually approved an increase to the cash dividend on the Company's common stock and on March 11, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of 50% in the annual cash dividend to an annual rate of $2.49 per share, subject to quarterly declaration. For the year ended July 31, 2015, the Company paid cash dividends of $2.075 per share ($75.5 million in the aggregate). On September 25, 2015 the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.6225 per share payable on October 26, 2015 to stockholders of record as of October 9, 2015.
