Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period and the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding options, unvested restricted share units and shares to be purchased under the ESPP. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in fair market value of the Company’s share price can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share attributable to the shareholders of Seagate Technology plc:

Basic |  | $ | 1.20 |  |  | $ | 1.48 |

The potential shares related to employee equity award plans were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to Seagate Technology plc were immaterial for the three months ended September 27, 2013 and September 28, 2012, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
