11.Earnings Per Share

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to our Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Aris Water Solutions, Inc. for periods subsequent to the IPO by the weighted average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding for the same period, including shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units (collectively “RSUs”), which receive nonforfeitable dividends. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period in which the shares were outstanding.

Prior to the IPO, Solaris LLC’s capital structure included Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D units. We determined that the presentation of net income (loss) per unit for the period prior to the IPO would not be meaningful due to the significant nature of the corporate reorganization transactions on the capital structure at IPO date. Therefore, net income (loss) per unit information has not been presented for periods prior to the IPO.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to our Class A common stock:

Shares of Class B common stock are considered potentially dilutive shares of Class A common stock because they may be redeemed for shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. A total of 31,532,441 shares and 31,597,946 shares of Class B common stock outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, were determined to be antidilutive and were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock. In addition, all PSUs were determined to be antidilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for that period.
