Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Note 3. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include incremental common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. Because the Company had net losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, any potentially diluted common shares related to outstanding stock options and restricted stock units have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for that period because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
