The formula for calculating the earnings per share (EPS) is as follows. Earnings Per Share (EPS) = (Net Income – Preferred Dividends) ÷ Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding. Ending Basic Shares Outstanding = Beginning Balance + New Stock Issuances – Stock Buybacks.
A publicly traded company's total number of shares outstanding can usually be found on their investor relations webpage, on stock exchanges' websites, or in the shareholder's equity section on a company's balance sheet as filed with an authorized information service like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Let's look again at our Company XYZ. We know from the previous example that the company has 1,000 authorized shares. If it offered 300 shares in an IPO, gave 150 to the executives, and retained 550 in the treasury, the number of shares outstanding would be 450 shares or 300 float shares + 150 restricted shares.
To calculate the weighted average of outstanding shares, take the number of outstanding shares and multiply the portion of the reporting period those shares covered; do this for each portion and then add the totals together.
