NOTE D – INCOME PER SHARE                  

Basic income per common share is calculated by dividing income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and excludes any dilutive effect of share-based awards. Diluted income per common share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive common shares used in the computation of diluted income per common share result from the assumed exercise of stock options as determined using the treasury stock method.

The following chart provides a reconciliation of information used in calculating the per-share amounts for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended September 24, 2023 and September 25, 2022, respectively.
