LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

12 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2020

Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated using the treasury stock method to reflect the assumed issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive securities, which consist of outstanding stock options. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.

There were no options outstanding at September 30, 2020. Options to purchase 318,750 shares of common stock was excluded from the computation of diluted shares for the year ended September 30, 2019, as their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
