Consolidated Earnings / Number of Shares

This is calculated by dividing the sum of net profit after tax of the company & its subsidiaries (less any dividends on preference shares that the company may have paid and Minority Interest) for a given year or period by the number of equity shares outstanding at the end of the year. This ratio shows the profits earned by the company as a group for every share issued.

Consolidated FCF / Share:
(Consolidated Earnings + Depreciation-Capital Expenditure) / Number of Shares

Free Cash Flow (FCF) is the cash earned by the company that can be actually distributed to the shareholders. An in-depth methodology would be to adjust a company's increase or decrease in net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) to the above figure. Free cash flow increases if the company manages to improve efficiency and consequently reduce the required working capital. This ratio implies the amount of free cash available per share.

Cons. Fully Diluted EPS:
Consolidated Earnings / Diluted Number of Shares

This is calculated by dividing the sum of net profit after tax of the company & its subsidiaries (less any dividends on preference shares that the company may have paid and Minority Interest) for a given year or period by the number of equity shares outstanding and the convertible shares/debenture at the end of the year.
