Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Share

Earnings per Share

Below is a reconciliation of weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

	Three months ended December 31,
	2014	2013
Weighted average common shares outstanding used in computing basic earnings per share	67,126	66,355
Dilutive common stock options and restricted stock units	—	771
Weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share	67,126	67,126

Options to purchase approximately 6,000 and 16,000 shares of common stock and 513,000 and 0 restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. All outstanding stock options and unvested shares of restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as a result of the net loss for that period.
