7. Loss Per Common Share

 

The Company’s basic net loss per share has been computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share assumes the exercise of all stock options having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the period using the treasury stock method and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares (stock options) outstanding during the period. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes potential common shares, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic net loss per share and diluted loss per share for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016:

  

    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended  
    December 31     December 31  
    2017     2016     2017     2016  
Net loss   $ (101,228 )   $ (159,741 )   $ (585,950 )   $ (691,099 )

Weighted avg. common shares outstanding – basic     2,037,266       2,037,266       2,037,266       2,037,266  
Effect of the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options     -       -       -       -  
Weighted avg. common shares outstanding – dilutive     2,037,266       2,037,266       2,037,266       2,037,266  
                                 
Loss per common share:

Due to a net loss for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
