The earnings per share after stock issue is $2.48.

Step by step solution

Information provided in the question

After-tax earnings = $7,200,000

Shares outstanding = 2,100,000

Shares issued in new public issue = 800,000 shares

Selling price for new public issue = $25 per share

Spread = 5%

Out-of-pocket costs = $260,000

Calculation of earnings per share after stock issue

The earnings per share is $2.48.

$\begin{array}{rcl} EPS & = & \frac{Net earnings}{SHares outstanding} \\ = & \frac{$ 7, 200, 000}{2, 900, 000} \\ = & $ 2.48 \end{array}$
