Outstanding options to purchase approximately 9.4 million shares were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for both the three and nine-month periods ended December 2022, and outstanding options to purchase approximately 2.8 million shares were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for both the three and nine-month periods ended December 2021, because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.In addition, 0.6 million shares of performance-based RSUs were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine-month periods ended December 2022 and December 2021, because these units were not considered to be contingent outstanding shares in those periods.
