	Three Months Ended January 31
	2015		2014
Net income attributable to Deere & Company	$	386.8	$	681.1
Less income allocable to participating securities	.1		.2
Income allocable to common stock	$	386.7	$	680.9
Average shares outstanding	343.1		371.9
Basic per share	$	1.13	$	1.83

Effect of dilutive share-based compensation	2.6		3.5
Total potential shares outstanding	345.7		375.4

During the first quarter of 2015 and 2014, 3.0 million shares and 2.4 million shares, respectively, related to share-based compensation were excluded from the above diluted per share computation because the incremental shares under the treasury stock method would have been antidilutive.
