12. EARNINGS PER SHARE (CONTINUED)
(b) Diluted earnings per share
For the diluted EPS calculation, the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive
potential ordinary shares. The Company has share options and RSA granted to employees under the Axiata Share Scheme as disclosed in Note
14(a) to the financial statements which are dilutive potential ordinary shares and is assumed to have been converted into ordinary shares.
In respect of share options over the ordinary shares and RSA of the Company, a calculation is performed to determine the number of shares
that could have been acquired at fair value based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The
calculation serves to determine the unexercised share options and RSA outstanding for the purpose of computing the dilution. No adjustment
is made to profit attributable to owners of the Company for the share options and RSA calculation.
