Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT
Basic earnings per share or unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share/unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period combined with the incremental average common shares/units that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares/units into common shares/units as of the earliest date possible.
Potentially dilutive securities include (i) outstanding options to acquire common shares; (ii) Limited Partner Units, which may be exchanged for either cash or common shares at the Parent Company’s option and under certain circumstances; (iii) AO LTIP Units; and (iv) deferred common share units, which may be credited to the personal accounts of non-employee trustees in lieu of compensation paid in cash or the issuance of common shares to such trustees. Limited Partner Units have been omitted from the Parent Company’s denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since the effect of including those amounts in the denominator would have no dilutive impact. Weighted average Limited Partner Units outstanding were 3.6 million and 3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
