Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE | EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE The computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31 were as follows:
Basic (Loss) Earnings Per Common Share |  |
(in millions, except per share amounts) |  | 2020 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Net (loss) income attributable to Dentsply Sirona |  | $ | (83) |  |  | $ | 263 |  |  | $ | (1,011) |
Weighted average common shares outstanding |  | 219.2 |  |  | 223.1 |  |  | 224.3 |
(Loss) earnings per common share - basic |  | $ | (0.38) |  |  | $ | 1.18 |  |  | $ | (4.51) |
Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Common Share |  |
(in millions, except per share amounts) |  | 2020 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Net (loss) income attributable to Dentsply Sirona |  | $ | (83) |  |  | $ | 263 |  |  | $ | (1,011) |
Weighted average common shares outstanding |  | 219.2 |  |  | 223.1 |  |  | 224.3 |
Incremental weighted average shares from assumed exercise of dilutive options from stock-based compensation awards |  | — |  |  | 1.3 |  |  | — |
Total weighted average diluted shares outstanding |  | 219.2 |  |  | 224.4 |  |  | 224.3 |
(Loss) earnings per common share - diluted |  | $ | (0.38) |  |  | $ | 1.17 |  |  | $ | (4.51) |
The calculation of weighted average diluted common shares outstanding excluded 0.9 million and 1.6 million of potentially diluted common shares because the Company reported a net loss for year ended December 31, 2020 and 2018, respectively. Stock options and RSUs of 3.1 million, 3.1 million, and 3.5 million equivalent shares of common stock that were outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively were excluded from the computation of weighted average diluted shares outstanding because their effect would be antidilutive. On March 9, 2020, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement with a financial institution pursuant to an Accelerated Share Repurchase Transaction (“ASR Agreement") to purchase $140 million of the Company's common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the ASR Agreement, the Company delivered $140 million cash to a financial institution and received an initial delivery of 2.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock on March 9, 2020 based on a closing market price of $42.12 per share and the applicable contractual discount. The Company received an additional 1.0 million shares on May 12, 2020, upon termination of the ASR Agreement. The average price per share for the total shares purchased under the ASR Agreement was $38.88 per share.
