10. Earnings per share
(continued)
(b)
Diluted earnings per share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares arising from share options.
For share options, the weighted average number of shares on issue has been adjusted as if all dilutive
share options were exercised. The number of shares that could have been issued upon the exercise of
all dilutive share options less the number of shares that could have been issued at fair value (determined
as the Company’s average share price for the financial year) for the same total proceeds is added to the
denominator as the number of shares issued for no consideration. No adjustment is made to the net profit.
Diluted earnings per share attributable to equity holders of the Company is calculated as follows:
