Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications of previously presented information have been made to conform to the reporting format adopted in the current period

Loss per share

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average numbers of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods, including dilutive effects of stock options, warrants granted and convertible preferred stock. Dilutive options and warrants that are issued during a period or that will expire or are canceled during a period are reflected in the computations for the time they were outstanding during the periods being reported. Since the Company had no common stock equivalents during the periods presented, diluted and basic earnings per share are equivalent.
