14. NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no differences between basic and diluted net loss per share since the effect of common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss position and, therefore, would be excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock options, RSAs, RSUs, and ESPP to purchase 10.0 million and 9.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, were excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The Company accounts for the effect of the 2024 Notes on diluted net earnings per share using the if-converted method as they may be settled in cash or shares at the Company’s option. While the closing price on June 30, 2020 exceeded the conversion price of $73.42, the potential shares issuable under the 2024 Notes were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive using the if-converted method. In the period of conversion, the 2024 Notes will have no impact on diluted net earnings (loss) if they are settled in cash and will have an impact on diluted earnings per share if the Notes are settled in shares upon conversion and when the Company is in an income position.
