Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

NOTE 7 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share attributable to the Company’s stockholders is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to the Company’s stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company does not have any equity instruments that are dilutive, except for employee stock-based awards and convertible senior notes ("Notes").

The table below shows the reconciliation of the number of shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2023		2022
Weighted average number of shares used in computation of basic earnings per share:		56,710		56,063
Additional shares from the assumed exercise of employee stock awards		394		303
Weighted average number of shares used in computation of diluted earnings per share		57,104		56,366

The number of stock-based awards that could potentially dilute future earnings per share and that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive was 106.3 thousand and 207.4 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

As per ASU 2020-06, the if-converted method is required for calculating any potential dilutive effect from convertible instruments. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the average price of the Company's common stock did not exceed the per share conversion price of the Notes of $90.27, and other requirements for the Notes to be convertible were not met and as such, there was no dilutive effect from the Notes in respect with the aforementioned periods.
