Options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock and restricted stock units that were outstanding during the periods presented, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because the effect was antidilutive are shown below (in thousands, except per share amounts):

In addition to the antidilutive items shown above, because of the loss reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, all options, warrants, and restricted stock are excluded from the diluted weighted-average shares calculation since the effect would be antidilutive.

 

Stockholders’ Equity

 

On August 29, 2011, the board of directors adopted a common stock repurchase program.  That program was subsequently modified and expanded on December 5, 2011, on May 24, 2012, on February 5, 2013, and again on November 18, 2013.  Under the modified common stock repurchase program, the Company may purchase up to $250.0 million of its common stock through the period ending November 18, 2014.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company had no common stock repurchases.  Through June 30, 2014, the Company had repurchased 12.3 million shares of its stock for $192.6 million, leaving remaining capacity of $57.4 million under the stock repurchase program.

Noncontrolling Interest

 

During fiscal year 2011, the Company acquired a 70% interest in GoDigital (Acxiom Brazil), a data quality and precision marketing firm located in Brazil.  Since Acxiom had voting control of the entity, its results were included in Acxiom’s consolidated results.  The interest that was not Acxiom-owned was reflected as noncontrolling interest in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  During fiscal 2014, the Company acquired the balance of the outstanding equity interests it did not already own in Acxiom Brazil and, as a result, the subsidiary is now wholly-owned.
