Accordingly, all common share, stock options and per share data prior to the redesignation has been restated to reflect the new equity structure of the Pittston Company. (b) For 1993 and 1991, the effect of stock options are excluded from the computations because they are antidilutive, whereby their inclusion results in a lower loss per common share. PRIMARY EARNINGS PER SHARE: Primary earnings per share can be computed from the information on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
