7. Earnings Per Share
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. As a result of the exchange transaction and the application of reverse acquisition accounting, the CPPI shares relating to the non-controlling interest shareholders were not included until March 2, 2012. This transaction led to an increase in the weighted average number of shares outstanding, with 71,269,790 shares outstanding as at December 31, 2012. The issuance of the new shares as a result of the exchange was accompanied by a corresponding increase in CPPI's investment in the Partnership and as a result there is no dilution of CPPI's net income per share.
