17. NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

        Basic (loss) income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period and is computed by dividing net income available to Huntsman Corporation common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding as dilutive securities.

        Basic and diluted (loss) income per share is determined using the following information (in millions):

        Additional stock-based awards of 7.0 million and 8.0 million weighted average equivalent shares of stock were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. However, these stock-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
