Pivotal’s Weighted Average Shares Outstanding
As of Pivotal Software, Inc.’s (“Pivotal”) fiscal first quarter ended May 4, 2018, weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, were approximately 105.6 million shares. Non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted, were approximately 224.2 million shares.
The difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding is due to the weighting given to Pivotal’s outstanding preferred shares that converted into Class A or Class B common shares on April 17, 2018. In calculating GAAP weighted average shares outstanding, the conversion of preferred shares are included in the share count for 18 days of Pivotal’s 91 day quarter. In calculating non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding, the conversion of preferred shares was assumed to have occurred at the beginning of the quarter and to have been outstanding for the full 91 days of the quarter.
Both GAAP and non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted, take into account the shares issued in the initial public offering, the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, the conversion of Pivotal’s outstanding preferred shares and options exercised during the fiscal first quarter ended May 4, 2018. Pivotal is providing GAAP and non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted, given the timing of Pivotal’s initial public offering and the impact of the new and converted shares within the fiscal first quarter on a weighted average basis.
