2) The issue during the year of a loan note convertible to equity shares

3) The granting during the year of managers' share options exercisable in four years' time

The additional consideration in diluted eps includes all those securities which are convertible . It includes convertible debentures , prefereence shares etc . The only difference in Diluted EPS and EPS formula is the denominator . In the denominator of diluted EPS conversion of dilutive securities is also included and because of it Diluted EPS is less than EPS
