Income Per Share [Abstract]

INCOME PER SHARE

5. INCOME PER SHARE:

The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is calculated as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
Weighted average shares outstanding		48,370		47,098		48,296		47,055
Effect of dilutive stock-based compensation		723		—		783		—
Effect of convertible notes		1,851		—		2,494		—
Effect of common stock warrants		—		—		350		—
Weighted average shares outstanding — assuming dilution		50,944		47,098		51,923		47,055

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, the effect of dilutive stock-based compensation awards was the equivalent of approximately 569,000 and 484,000 shares, respectively, of common stock outstanding. Because the Company had a loss from continuing operations in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, these incremental shares were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share for those periods as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The Company had stock-based compensation awards outstanding with respect to approximately 960,000 and 2,012,000 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The Company had stock-based compensation awards outstanding with respect to approximately 955,000 and 2,293,000 shares of common stock as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

As discussed in Note 9, and more fully in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, in 2009 the Company issued 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) due 2014. It is the Company’s intention to settle the face value of the Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion/maturity. Any conversion spread associated with the conversion/maturity of the Convertible Notes may be settled in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. The effect of potentially issuable shares under this conversion spread for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was the equivalent of approximately 257,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Because the Company had a loss from continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2010, these incremental shares were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share for that period as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

In connection with the issuance of these notes, the Company sold common stock purchase warrants to counterparties affiliated with the initial purchasers of the Convertible Notes. The initial strike price of these warrants is $32.70 per share of the Company’s common stock and the warrants cover an aggregate of approximately 13.2 million shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. If the average closing price of the Company’s stock during a reporting period exceeds this strike price, these warrants will be dilutive. The warrants may only be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock.
