Basic earnings per share is calculated based on net income attributable to Ocean Bio-Chem, Inc. and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period.  Diluted earnings per share reflect additional dilution from potential common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options.  The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share, as well as a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a diluted basis.
