1. Net Loss Per Share for the Year Ended December 31, 2024: The net loss per share for Ainsworth Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2024, is
\(-\$0.25\).

2. Per Share Amount of Income or Loss from Continuing Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2024: The per share amount of loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, is $0.39.

3. EPS Presentation for Ainsworth's 2024 and 2023 Comparative Income Statements:

- For the year 2024:

- Net Loss per Share: -$0.25

- Loss from Continuing Operations per Share: $0.39

- For the year 2023:

- Net Income per Share: $0.70

1. Compute Ainsworth's Net Loss Per Share for the Year Ended December 31, 2024

Weighted-average Number of Common Shares Outstanding Calculation:

  • Initial common shares: 850 million
  • Treasury shares purchased: 50 million on April 30, 2024, affecting 8 months of the year.
  • Treasury shares sold: 20 million on August 31, 2024, affecting 4 months of the year.
  • Common stock dividend: 4% increase in shares.

Calculation steps:

1Adjustment for Treasury Shares Purchased:


\[850 - (50 * (8)/(12)) = 850 - 33.33 = 816.67 \text{ million}\]

Adjustment for Treasury Shares Sold:


\[816.67 + (20 * (4)/(12)) = 816.67 + 6.67 = 823.34 \text{ million}\]

Adjustment for Stock Dividend:


\[823.34 * (1 + (4)/(100)) = 823.34 * 1.04 = 856.27 \text{ million}\]

Net Loss Per Share:

Net loss =
\(-\$210\) million


\[(-210)/(856.27) = -\$0.245 \text{ (rounded to 3 decimal places)}\]

2. Compute the Per Share Amount of Income or Loss from Continuing Operations:

  • Net Loss:
    \(-\$210\) million
  • Loss from Discontinued Operations:
    \(-\$540\) million
  • Income from Continuing Operations: Net Loss - Loss from Discontinued Operations =
    \(-210 - (-540)\) = \(\$330\) million

Calculation steps:

Loss per Share from Continuing Operations:


\[(330)/(856.27) = \$0.385 \text{ (rounded to 3 decimal places)}\]

3. Prepare an EPS Presentation for 2024 and 2023 Comparative Income Statements

For 2023:

- Net Income: $595 million

- Weighted-average Number of Common Shares Outstanding: 850 million

- EPS:
\[(595)/(850) = \$0.70\]

For 2024:

- Net Loss Per Share (from step 1):
\(-\$0.25\) (rounded to 2 decimal places)

- Loss from Continuing Operations Per Share (from step 2):
\(\$0.39\) (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Therefore, the EPS presentation would be:

- 2024:

- Net Loss Per Share:
\(-\$0.25\)

- Loss from Continuing Operations Per Share:
\(\$0.39\)

- 2023:

- Net Income Per Share:
\(\$0.70\)
