Earnings Per Share

11. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding used to compute earnings per share:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2019		2018		2017
	(In thousands)
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		37,083		36,958		36,864
Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock		873		897		1,174
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		37,956		37,855		38,038

Stock options and restricted stock totaling 146,822 shares, 83,718 shares and 31,766 shares for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive. The computation of diluted shares can vary among periods due, in part, to the change in the average price of the Company’s common stock.
