Document Summary

Common shareholders need to know how much of a company"s available income can be attributed to the shares that they own. This helps them assess future dividend payouts and the value of each share. Common shareholders have a residual interest in the company. Ifrs requires the following information to be reported on the face of the income statement: Earnings per share amounts must be shown for all periods that are presented. When the income statement presents discontinued operations, eps should be disclosed for income from continuing operations, discontinued operations, and net income. Per-share amounts, where applicable, should be shown for both diluted and basic eps. Discontinued operations eps may be disclosed on the face of the statement or in the notes. If there has been a stock dividend or stock split, all per-share amounts of prior period earnings should be restated using the new number of outstanding shares.
