Common Share Dividend Distribution

During the quarter ended December 31, 2015, the Trust did not declare a dividend on its shares.

Restricted Shares

The Trust’s 2012 Incentive Plan, approved by its shareholders in March 2012, permits the Trust to grant stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares awards and any one or more of the foregoing, up to a maximum of 600,000 shares. In January 2016, the Trust granted 141,050 shares of restricted stock pursuant to this plan. As of December 31, 2015, 414,475 shares of unvested restricted stock are outstanding pursuant to this plan and 258,150 shares of unvested restricted stock are outstanding pursuant to the Trust’s 2009 equity incentive plan (the "Prior Plan"). No additional awards may be granted under the Prior Plan. All restricted shares vest five years from the date of grant and under specified circumstances, including a change in control, may vest earlier. For accounting purposes, the restricted shares are not included in the outstanding shares shown on the consolidated balance sheets until they vest, but are included in the earnings per share computation. For the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Trust recorded $230,000 and $206,000, respectively, of compensation expense related to the amortization of unearned compensation. At December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, $1,955,000 and $2,184,000 has been deferred as unearned compensation and will be charged to expense over the remaining vesting periods. The weighted average vesting period is 2.1 years.

Per Share Data

Basic earnings (loss) per share is determined by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of beneficial interest outstanding during such period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue shares of beneficial interest were exercised or converted into shares of beneficial interest or resulted in the issuance of shares of beneficial interest that share in the earnings of the Trust. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of beneficial interest outstanding during such period plus the dilutive effect of the Trust's unvested restricted stock using the treasury stock method.
Basic and diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, were 14,101,056 and 14,243,173, respectively.
