EARNINGS PER SHARE

3 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2022

EARNINGS PER SHAREBasic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income available to i3 Verticals, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income available to i3 Verticals, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive securities.

The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

__________________________

1.For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 all potentially dilutive securities were anti-dilutive, so diluted net loss per share was equivalent to basic net loss per share. The following securities were excluded from the weighted average effect of dilutive securities in the computation of diluted net loss per share of Class A common stock:

a.10,118,142 and 10,222,946 weighted average shares of Class B common stock for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, along with the reallocation of net income assuming conversion of these shares, were excluded because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

b.5,652,711 and 5,444,557 stock options for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were excluded because the exercise price of these stock options exceeded the average market price of our Class A common stock during the period (“out-of-the-money”) and the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive, and

c.696,427 and 606,942 shares for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, resulting from estimated stock option exercises and restricted stock units vesting as calculated by the treasury stock method were excluded because of the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive.

On September 22, 2022, the Company provided the trustee notice of the Company’s irrevocable election to settle the principal portion of its Exchangeable Notes only in cash and the conversion spread in cash or shares. Accordingly, upon conversion, the Company will pay the principal in cash, and it will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the conversion premium in cash, shares of Class A Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Class A Common Stock, at its election. The Company applies the if-converted method and only includes the number of incremental shares that would be issued upon conversion for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the conversion spread on diluted net income per share. The conversion spread will have a dilutive impact on diluted net income per share of common stock when the average market price of the Company's Class A common stock for a given period exceeds the exchange price of $40.87 per share for the Exchangeable Notes.

The Warrants sold in connection with the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes are considered to be dilutive when the average price of the Company's Class A common stock during the period exceeds the Warrants' stock price of $62.88 per share. The effect of the additional shares that may be issued upon exercise of the Warrants will be included in the weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding—diluted using the treasury stock method. The Note Hedge Transactions purchased in connection with the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes are considered to be anti-dilutive and therefore do not impact our calculation of diluted net income per share. Refer to Note 7 for further discussion regarding the Exchangeable Notes.

Shares of the Company's Class B common stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been presented.
