outstanding share of common stock. EPS serves as an

weighted average number of shares outstanding over the
reporting term, because the number of shares outstanding
can change over time. However, data sources sometimes

convertibles or warrants outstanding in the outstanding
shares number.

price. It is also a major component of the price-to-
