Earnings Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share adjusts basic earnings per share for the effects of stock options and other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the periods in which the effects are dilutive. The dilutive effect of share-based awards is reflected in earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method, which includes consideration of unamortized share-based compensation expense required under the Compensation – Stock Compensation Topic of the ASC.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, there were options to purchase 9,541 shares and 105,135 shares, respectively, of the Company's common stock and warrants to purchase 519,241 shares of common stock that were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation because the impact of the assumed exercise of such stock options would have been anti-dilutive during the respective periods.

The following table reconciles basic weighted average shares outstanding to diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:
