EARNINGS PER SHARE

11. EARNINGS PER SHARE



Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including outstanding unvested restricted stock awards and vested restricted stock awards during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, noted above, adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options. Dilutive securities are common stock equivalents that are freely exercisable into common stock at less than market prices or otherwise dilute earnings if converted. The net effect of common stock equivalents is based on the incremental common stock that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of common stock options and the vesting of RSAs using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are not included in diluted earnings per share when their inclusion is antidilutive.



The computations of diluted EPS available to our shareholders do not include approximately 0.1 million stock options and RSAs for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 0.2 million stock options and RSAs for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as the effect of their inclusion would have been antidilutive to earnings per share.



The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS:
