5.Earnings per share
The earnings per share calculations are based on the average number of share units representing the ordinary shares of PLC in issue during the period, less the average number of shares held as treasury shares. In calculating diluted earnings per share, a number of adjustments are made to the number of shares, principally the exercise of share plans by employees. Earnings per share for total operations for the six months were calculated as follows:
| First Half
| 2024 | 2023
EPS – Basic |  |
Net profit attributable to shareholders’ equity (€ million) | 3,701 | 3,548
Average number of shares (millions of share units) | 2,499.9 | 2,523.9
EPS – basic (€) | 1.48 | 1.41
EPS – Diluted |  |
Net profit attributable to shareholders’ equity (€ million) | 3,701 | 3,548
Adjusted average number of shares (millions of share units) | 2,511.0 | 2,536.8
EPS – diluted (€) | 1.47 | 1.40
During the period the following movements in shares have taken place:
