Note 3: Net Earnings Per Share

        HP calculates basic earnings per share using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS includes any dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, PRUs, restricted stock units, and restricted stock.

        The reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS calculations was as follows:

Net earnings available to participating securities were not significant for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009. HP considers restricted stock that provides the holder with a non-forfeitable right to receive dividends to be a participating security.

        HP excludes options with exercise prices that are greater than the average market price from the calculation of diluted EPS because their effect would be anti-dilutive. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, HP excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS options to purchase 21 million shares and 107 million shares, respectively. HP also excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS options to purchase an additional 2 million shares and 1 million shares in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively, whose combined exercise price, unamortized fair value and excess tax benefits were greater in each of those periods than the average market price for HP's common stock because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

        During the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, HP granted PRU awards representing at target approximately 7 million shares and 14 million shares, respectively. HP includes the shares underlying PRU awards in the calculation of diluted EPS when they become contingently issuable and excludes such shares when they are not contingently issuable. Accordingly, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, HP has included 9 million shares underlying the PRU awards granted in fiscal 2009 and 2008 when calculating diluted EPS as those shares became contingently issuable upon the satisfaction of the cash flow from operations condition with respect to the first year of the three-year performance period applicable to the fiscal 2009 awards and the first and second years of the three-year performance period applicable to the fiscal 2008 awards. HP has excluded all other shares underlying the fiscal 2009 and 2008 PRU awards and all shares underlying the fiscal 2010 awards when calculating diluted EPS as those shares are not contingently issuable. For the first quarter of fiscal 2009, HP has included

2 million shares underlying the PRU awards granted in fiscal 2008 when calculating diluted EPS as those shares became contingently issuable upon the satisfaction of the cash flow from operations condition with respect to the first year of the three-year performance period applicable to the fiscal 2008 awards. HP has excluded all other shares underlying the fiscal 2008 PRU awards and all shares underlying the fiscal 2009 awards when calculating diluted EPS as those shares were not contingently issuable.

        HP excludes options with exercise prices that are greater than the average market price from the calculation of diluted EPS because their effect would be anti-dilutive. In the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, HP excluded 107 million shares and 35 million shares, respectively, from its diluted EPS calculation. Also, in accordance with SFAS 123R, HP excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS options to purchase an additional 1 million shares and 30 million shares in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, respectively, whose combined exercise price, unamortized fair value and excess tax benefits were greater in each of those periods than the average market price for HP's common stock because their effect would be anti-dilutive. As disclosed in Note 2, HP granted PRU awards representing at target approximately 14 million shares and 9 million shares, respectively. HP includes the shares underlying PRU awards in the calculation of diluted EPS when they become contingently issuable per SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," and excludes such shares when they are not contingently issuable. Accordingly, HP has included 2 million shares underlying the PRU awards granted in fiscal 2008 when calculating diluted EPS as those shares became contingently issuable upon the satisfaction of the cash flow from operations condition with respect to the first year of the performance period applicable to those awards. HP has excluded all other shares underlying the fiscal 2008 awards and all shares underlying the fiscal 2009 awards as those shares are not contingently issuable.

        In October and November 1997, HP issued U.S. dollar zero-coupon subordinated convertible notes due 2017 (the "LYONs"), the outstanding principal amount of which was redeemed in March 2008. The

LYONs were convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to maturity, unless previously redeemed or otherwise purchased. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share above, the interest expense (net of tax) associated with the LYONs was added back to net earnings, and the shares issuable upon conversion of the LYONs were included in the weighted-average shares used to compute diluted earnings per share for periods that the LYONs were outstanding.

Note 3: Net Earnings Per Share

        HP calculates basic net earnings per share ("EPS") using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and the assumed conversion of convertible notes.

        In the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and 2007, HP had options outstanding to purchase 35 million and 117 million shares, respectively, whose exercise prices were greater than the average market price of HP's common stock in each of those periods. HP excluded these options from the calculation of diluted EPS because their effect was anti-dilutive. Additionally, in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and 2007, HP had options outstanding to purchase 30 million and 4 million shares, respectively, whose combined exercise price, unamortized fair value and excess tax benefits were greater than the average market price of HP's common stock in each of those periods. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R on November 1, 2005, HP excluded these additional options from the calculation of diluted EPS because their effect also was anti-dilutive. As disclosed in Note 2, during the quarter ended January 31, 2008, HP granted PRU awards representing approximately 9 million shares at target. These awards have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as they are contingently issuable shares that have not met the performance conditions set forth in SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share."
