Paragraphs:
5. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share ("EPS") is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur upon issuance of common shares for awards under stock-based compensation plans, or conversion of preferred stock, but only to the extent that they are considered dilutive.
The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted EPS:
In conjunction with the acquisition of Hawaiian Telcom in the third quarter of 2018, the Company issued 7.7 million Common Shares as a part of the acquisition consideration. In addition, the Company granted 0.1 million time-based restricted stock units to certain Hawaiian Telcom employees under the Hawaiian Telcom 2010 Equity Incentive Plan
For the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had a net loss available to common shareholders and, as a result, all common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.  For the year ended December 31, 2017, awards under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans for common shares of 0.2 million, were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.  For all periods presented, preferred stock convertible into 0.9 million common shares was excluded as it was anti-dilutive.
Question:
Which year has the largest weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic?
Answer: Because 50.4 is the largest value, the answer is: 2019.
