Basic Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share:
Numerator:
Net income (loss) attributable to Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. shareholders$7.5 $(18.4)$(37.9)$32.7 
Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding224.4 220.4 223.1 220.0 
Basic net income (loss) per common share$0.03 $(0.08)$(0.17)$0.15 

Diluted net income (loss) per common share reflects share purchase options, including share appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted share units ("RSUs") and restricted stock using the treasury stock method when dilutive, and any contingently issuable shares when dilutive. Diluted net income (loss) per common share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is presented below:

As a result of the net loss in the six months ended September 30, 2021 and the three months ended September 30, 2020, the dilutive effect of the share purchase options, restricted share units and restricted stock, and contingently issuable shares were considered anti-dilutive and, therefore, excluded from diluted net loss per share. The weighted average anti-dilutive shares excluded from the calculation due to the net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2021 totaled 5.7 million (three months ended September 30, 2020 - 0.9 million).
Additionally, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the outstanding common shares issuable presented below were excluded from diluted net income (loss) per common share because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect regardless of net income or loss in the period.
