Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period presented. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to stock options and restricted stock outstanding during the applicable periods, except during loss periods as the effect would be anti-dilutive. The following table reflects the calculation of weighted average common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding as presented in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss (in thousands, except per-share data):

Stock options with an exercise price greater than the average market price of our common stock and certain options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units with unrecognized compensation expense do

not

impact the computation of diluted loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes on a weighted-average basis stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units that were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect (in thousands):

	Thirteen weeks ended
	September 5, 2017		August 30, 2016
Stock options		1,293		2,393
Restricted stock / Restricted stock units		635		758
