Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) were computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS differs from basic EPS due to the assumed conversion of potentially dilutive awards and options that were outstanding during the period. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations for net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016.

Diluted earnings (loss) per common share and common share equivalent	$	(0.10	)	$	(0.07	)	$	(0.20	)	$	(0.12	)

The awards and options to purchase shares of common stock that were outstanding at September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive, are as follows:
