Earnings per share

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2021

NOTE 14 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is similarly computed, except that the denominator includes the effect, using the treasury stock method, of unvested equity-based employee awards, convertible notes and shares held pursuant to our non-employee director deferred compensation plan, if including such potential shares of common stock is dilutive.

The following table presents our weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021	2020	2021	2020
	(in thousands)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic	99,187	99,566	99,445	96,821




Weighted-average common shares and equivalents outstanding - diluted	99,187	99,566	99,445	96,821

We reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. As a result, our basic and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding were the same for those periods because the effect of the common share equivalents was anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the weighted-average common share equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021	2020	2021	2020
	(in thousands)
RSUs and PSUs	2,818	1,914	2,642	1,600

Other equity-based awards	172	244	185	236
Total anti-dilutive common share equivalents	2,990	2,158	2,827	1,836

The 2021 Convertible Notes give the holders, at our election, the right to convert the aggregate principal amount into 2.3 million shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $85.39 per share. The 2021 Convertible Notes were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method for any periods presented as the average market price of our common stock did not exceed the conversion price.
