(5)Earnings Attributable to ҹѰ Stockholders Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (“WASO”) for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, including any necessary adjustments to earnings (loss) attributable to shareholders.

As discussed in note 2, on April 15, 2016, the Company completed a recapitalization of its common stock into three new tracking stock groups, one designated as the ҹѰ SiriusXM common stock, one designated as the ҹѰ Braves common stock and one designated as the ҹѰ Media common stock. As further discussed in note 2, the ҹѰ Media common stock was renamed ҹѰ Formula One common stock on January 24, 2017 shortly after the Second Closing. The operating results prior to the Recapitalization are attributed to ҹѰ stockholders in the aggregate, and the operating results subsequent to the Recapitalization are attributed to the respective tracking stock groups.

Excluded from diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are approximately 21 million potentially dilutive shares of Series A ҹѰ SiriusXM common stock, 2 million potentially dilutive shares of Series A ҹѰ Braves common stock and 8 million potentially dilutive shares of Series A ҹѰ Formula One common stock, primarily due to warrants issued in connection with the Bond Hedge Transaction (note 10), because their inclusion would be antidilutive. The Amended Warrant Transactions (note 10) may have a dilutive effect with respect to the shares comprising the Securities Basket underlying the warrants to the extent that the settlement price exceeds the strike price of the warrants, and the warrants are settled in shares comprising such Securities Basket. The warrants and any potential future settlement have been attributed to the Formula One Group. Additionally, the Delta Topco Exchangeable Notes may have a dilutive effect to the extent that the settlement price exceeds the strike price of the notes, and the Delta Topco Exchangeable Notes are settled in shares of Series C ҹѰ Formula One common stock.

(a)

Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS during periods in which losses are reported since the result would be antidilutive.

(b)

As discussed in note 2, following the Recapitalization and SeriesC ҹѰ Braves common stock rights offering, the number of notional shares representing theFormula One Group’s intergroup interest in the Braves Group was adjusted to 9,084,940 shares. The intergroup interest is a quasi-equity interest which is not represented by outstanding shares of common stock; rather, the Formula One Group has an attributed value in the Braves Group which is generally stated in terms of a number of shares of stock issuable to the Formula One Group with respect to its interest in the Braves Group. Each reporting period, the notional shares representing the intergroup interest are marked to fair value. As the notional shares underlying the intergroup interest are not represented by outstanding shares of common stock, such shares have not been officially designated Series A, B or C ҹѰ Braves common stock. However, ҹѰ has assumed that the notional shares (if and when issued) would be comprised of Series C ҹѰ Braves common stock in order to not dilute voting percentages. Therefore, the market price of Series C ҹѰ Braves common stock is used for the quarterly mark-to-market adjustment through the unaudited attributed condensed consolidated statements of operations. The notional shares representing the intergroup interest have no impact on the basic earnings per share weighted average number of shares outstanding. However, the notional shares representing the intergroup interest are included in the diluted earnings per share WASO as if the shares had been issued and outstanding during the period. An adjustment is also made to the numerator in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the unrealized gain or loss incurred from marking the intergroup interest to fair value during the period as follows:
