Think about it in the way of averages.

company A is earning 10 dollars per share (EPS) company B is earning 5 dollars per share

A decides to purchase B so what will happen to its average EPS? (Assuming all else equal)

The average EPS will go down or it'll get diluted since now Company A is earning less on a per share basis than it did before the merger.
