Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

For the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, basic earnings per share were computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Unexercised stock options and unvested restricted shares are excluded from this calculation but are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method as long as their effect is not antidilutive.

The following table provides a reconciliation of weighted-average shares used to determine basic and diluted earnings per share.

	Quarter Ended   March 31,
In thousands	2015	2014
Basic average common shares outstanding	16,837	16,542
Effect of dilutive options and restricted stock awards	272	310
Diluted average common shares outstanding	17,109	16,852

For the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, stock options for 0.1 million shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share because they were antidilutive.
