Options to purchase 2.4 million shares of common stock at prices ranging from $13.82 to $51.37 per share were outstanding at March 26, 2022, and options to purchase 2.9 million shares of common stock at prices ranging from $13.82 to $44.02 per share were outstanding at March 27, 2021.

For the three months ended March 26, 2022 and March 27, 2021, approximately 0.4 million and 0.2 million options outstanding, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and therefore, the effect of including these options would be antidilutive.

For the six months ended March 26, 2022 and March 27, 2021, 21 thousand and 0.1 million options outstanding were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and therefore, the effect of including these options would be antidilutive.
