Common shares issuable pursuant to equity units, stock options, performance share awards and/or exchangeable notes, as well as restricted stock which were not included in the denominator above due to their antidilutive effect were approximately 49.7 million and 24.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 65.0 million and 31.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
