NET INCOME PER SHARE [Abstract]

NET INCOME PER SHARE

NOTE 12.  NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares that would have been outstanding during the period assuming the issuance of common shares for all potential dilutive common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.  Dilutive potential common shares outstanding include outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and warrants.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in calculating basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Numerator:
Net income	$	4,988	$	2,850	$	20,761	$	8,385
Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic		21,968,000		21,672,000		21,902,000		22,213,000
Weighted average effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		87,000		107,000		101,000		139,000
Restricted stock units		258,000		185,000		285,000		212,000
Warrants		28,000		26,000		28,000		15,000
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted		22,341,000		21,990,000		22,316,000		22,579,000
Net income per share:
Basic net income per share	$	0.23	$	0.13	$	0.95	$	0.38
Diluted net income per share	$	0.22	$	0.13	$	0.93	$	0.37

Stock options and warrants are excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding if the exercise price of the stock options and warrants is greater than the average market price of our common stock during the period because the inclusion of these stock options and warrants would be antidilutive to net income per share.  There were no stock options and warrants excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

We excluded the following restricted stock units from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding because the inclusion of these awards would be antidilutive to net income per share:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Weighted average number of shares underlying antidilutive restricted stock units		-		307,000		31,000		249,000

If the performance criteria for our restricted stock unit awards (performance vesting) are achieved, these awards will be considered outstanding for the purpose of computing diluted net income per share if the effect is dilutive.  Starting with the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we granted 21,000 restricted stock unit awards (performance vesting), with vesting based on the achievement of certain pre-established corporate annual performance related goals.  Because the performance criteria for our restricted stock unit awards (performance vesting) were not achieved during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2012, these awards were not included in the diluted net income per share calculation.
