8. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

As described in Note

2,

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company computes basic and diluted loss per share using a methodology that gives effect to the impact of outstanding participating securities (the “two-class method”). As the

three

and

nine

months ended

September 30, 2018

and

2017

resulted in net losses, there is

no

income allocation required under the

two

-class method or dilution attributed to weighted-average shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share.

The following Common Stock equivalents, presented on an as converted basis, were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for the periods presented, due to their anti-dilutive effect:
