___________________________
(1)See Note 8 for further discussion on PIK dividends.
(2)For the five months ended March 31, 2020 the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, basic and diluted, take into account the conversion ratio applied to Old Bristow shares upon close of the Merger.
(3)Excludes weighted average common shares of 1,573,745 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (Successor), 135,882 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 (Successor) and 3,175,849 for the seven months ended October 31, 2019 (Predecessor), respectively, for certain share awards as the effect of their inclusion would have been antidilutive. The Old Bristow Preferred Stock is not included on an if-converted basis under diluted earnings per common share as the conversion of the shares would have been anti-dilutive.
(4)Potentially dilutive shares issuable pursuant to the warrant transactions entered into concurrently with the issuance of the Old Bristow’s 4½% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Warrant Transactions”) were not included in the computation of diluted income per share for the 2019 period reflected, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.
