Basic And Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

NOTE 11 – BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

The Company's basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (net loss less dividends declared and accretion of discount on preferred stock) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, after giving retroactive effect to stock dividends and splits. The Company's diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the numerator is equal to net loss and the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Included in the denominator is the dilutive effect of stock options computed under the treasury stock method and the dilutive effect of the U.S. Treasury Warrant as if converted to common stock.

The following summarizes the weighted average shares outstanding for computation of basic and diluted shares for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

 

Three months ended September 30:

   2011      2010  

Weighted average number of common shares:

     

Average shares outstanding-basic

     10,035,241         10,034,830   

Average shares outstanding-diluted

     10,035,241         10,034,830   

Nine months ended September 30:

   2011      2010  

Weighted average number of common shares:

     

Average shares outstanding-basic

     10,035,240         7,739,490   

Average shares outstanding-diluted

     10,035,240         7,739,490   

As of September 30, 2011, and 2010, stock options of 76,760 and 90,603, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as well as the U.S. Treasury Warrant to purchase 109,039 shares of common stock, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
