Basic earnings per share	$	0.05	$	—		$	0.69	$	0.73
Diluted earnings per share:
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding	48,330		49,949			48,313		50,277

(a) The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes options to purchase approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock in the thirteen weeks ended November 30, 2013 and 1.2 million and 0.8 million shares of common stock in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 30, 2013 and December 1, 2012, respectively, because the impact of such options would have been anti-dilutive.
