Weighted Average Shares and Net Income Per Share

Note D — Weighted Average Shares and Net Income Per Share

Weighted average basic common shares decreased from 19,902,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 to 19,581,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Weighted average diluted common and common equivalent shares decreased from 20,063,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 to 19,733,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. The net decrease in both of these weighted share calculations is due to the repurchase of common stock as noted above, offset by an increase in shares outstanding due to the exercise of stock options under the Company’s employee stock option plan.

Net income per common and common equivalent shares was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common stock equivalents outstanding during the quarter. The calculations of the basic and diluted weighted shares for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, are as follows:
