Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

6.Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed using net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (“Weighted Shares”) for the period presented.

Diluted net income per share is computed using net income divided by Weighted Shares and the treasury stock method effect of common equivalent shares (CESs) outstanding for each period presented.

In the following table, we present a reconciliation of earnings per share and the shares used in the computation of earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands, except per share data):

The number of anti-dilutive CESs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was immaterial.
