(2) Earnings Attributable to Liberty Broadband Stockholders Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to Liberty Broadband shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (“WASO”) for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented.  Excluded from diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are zero and 14 thousand potential common shares, respectively, because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.  Excluded from diluted EPS for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are zero and 14 thousand potential common shares, respectively, because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
