Earnings per share measures the amount of income a company generates per share of stock outstanding. In general, the higher the EPS, the more valuable the stock. However, investors make two different EPS calculations: basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS measures the earnings per share currently outstanding.

For example, suppose a company pays its executives with stock options.
Small Volume Parenteral Solutions. Small volume parenteral (SVP) solutions are usually 100 ml or less and are packaged in different ways depending on the intended use. If the SVP is a liquid that is used primarily to deliver medications, it is packaged in a small plastic bag called a minibag of 50 - 100 ml (minibags look like small plastic LVP bags). SVPs can also be packaged as ampules, vials, and prefilled syringes.
