Earnings Per Share

On a non-GAAP basis, second quarter 2009 earnings per diluted share were $0.47 as compared to pro forma non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.47 in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.48 in the first quarter of 2009. NASDAQ OMX’s weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per share were 214 million for each of the periods reported.

In June 2009, NASDAQ OMX filed an application for an advance tax ruling with the Swedish Tax Council for Advanced Tax Rulings. The application was filed to confirm whether certain interest expense is deductible for Swedish tax purposes under legislation that became effective on January 1, 2009. We expect to receive a favorable response from the Swedish Tax Council for Advance Tax Rulings by our fiscal year end 2009. We recorded the Swedish tax benefit as described above in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In the second quarter of 2009, we recorded a tax benefit of $5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. For the first six months of 2009, we recorded a tax benefit of $9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share. We expect to record recurring quarterly tax benefits of $4 million to $5 million with respect to this issue for the foreseeable future.
