The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the information used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share:

Earnings from continuing operations$198,085 $166,456 $303,790 $275,865 
Loss from discontinued operations, net— (26,497)— (4,472)
Net earnings$198,085 $139,959 $303,790 $271,393 
Basic earnings (loss) per common share:  
Earnings from continuing operations$1.36 $1.10 $2.09 $1.80 
Loss from discontinued operations, net$— $(0.17)$— $(0.03)

Weighted average shares outstanding145,366,000 151,744,000 145,227,000 153,124,000 
Diluted earnings (loss) per common share:  
Earnings from continuing operations$1.35 $1.08 $2.07 $1.77

The following table is a reconciliation of the share amounts used in computing earnings per share:

Weighted average shares outstanding - Basic145,366,000 151,744,000 145,227,000 153,124,000 
Dilutive effect of assumed exercise of SARs and vesting of performance shares and RSUs1,813,000 2,194,000 1,814,000 2,449,000 
Weighted average shares outstanding - Diluted147,179,000 153,938,000 147,041,000 155,573,000 

Diluted earnings per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of SARs and vesting of performance shares and RSUs, as determined using the treasury stock method.  

The weighted average number of anti-dilutive potential common shares excluded from the calculation above were approximately 30,000 and 78,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 1,200 and 0 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
