Earnings Per Share

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2023

EARNINGS PER SHAREBasic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. by the weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding (and Class D common stock, if outstanding) during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by adjusting the net income available to Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. and the weighted average shares outstanding to give effect to potentially dilutive securities. Shares of Class B and Class C common stock are not entitled to receive any distributions or dividends and are therefore excluded from this presentation since they are not participating securities.

Basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 have been computed as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

RSUs and stock options	76,680		64,249		159,370		66,794
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, DILUTED	96,889,854		96,208,702		96,820,285		96,386,862

BASIC earnings per share	$	0.01	$	0.04	$	0.01	$	0.07
DILUTED earnings per share	$	0.01	$	0.03	$	0.01	$	0.06

Net income attributable to the non-controlling interest added back to net income in the fully dilutive computation has been adjusted for income taxes which would have been expensed had the income been recognized by Brilliant Earth Group, Inc., a taxable entity. The weighted average common shares outstanding in the diluted computation per share assumes all outstanding LLC Units are converted and the Company will elect to issue shares of common stock upon redemption rather than cash-settle.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the dilutive impact of LLC Units convertible into common stock were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share under the if-converted method; the dilutive impact of unvested LLC Units and RSUs were included using the treasury stock method.

The following table presents the shares underlying stock options and RSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 that have been excluded from the computation of earnings per share because such impact is anti-dilutive:


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023	2022	2023	2022
RSUs	3,524,279	2,369,323	2,896,832	1,990,846
Stock options	799,329	1,132,666	815,650	1,316,755
