As of July 27, 2016, there were 172,378,640 shares outstanding. Diluted Weighted Number of Shares Diluted earnings per share is determined using the if-converted method. Under this method, the Company assumes that the Convertible Notes (which were issued in June 2014) are converted into common shares at the beginning of each period and the interest and non-cash amortization expense associated with these notes of $5.4 million and $10.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, are not incurred. Conversion is not assumed if the results of this calculation are anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's basic weighted average number of shares were 161,381,900 and 160,931,752, respectively. The Company's diluted weighted average number of shares for those periods were 165,943,795 and 166,306,290, respectively which excludes the impact of the Convertible Notes since the if-converted method was anti-dilutive. As of the date hereof, the Convertible Notes are not eligible for conversion. Full report About Scorpio Tankers Inc.
