NOTE 12—LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes the effects of potential dilutive shares from the conversion feature of the Convertible Notes due 2024, if dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per common share:

Vested RSUs and PSU’s have dividend rights identical to the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock and are treated as outstanding shares for purposes of computing basic and diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, unvested RSU’s of 2,210,736 and 43,073, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because they would be anti-dilutive. Unvested PSUs and SPSUs are subject to performance and market conditions, respectively, and are included in diluted earnings per share, if dilutive, based on the number of shares, if any, that would be issuable under the terms of the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period. Unvested PSUs of 793,932 and 504,253 at 100% performance target for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively, and unvested SPSUs of 595,003 at the minimum market condition for the three months ended March 31, 2020, were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because they would not be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period.

The Company uses the if-converted method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes due 2024 that were issued on September 14, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company has not adjusted net loss to eliminate the interest expense of $8.3 million and $8.0 million, respectively, and also the (gain)/loss for the derivative liability related to the Convertible Notes due 2024 of $(0.5) million and $13.3 million, respectively, in the computation of diluted loss per share because the effects would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company has not included in diluted weighted average shares approximately 31.7 million shares issuable upon conversion in both periods as the effects would be anti-dilutive. Based on the current conversion price of $18.95 per share the Convertible Notes due 2024 are convertible into 31,662,269 Class A common shares.
