Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

13. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, exclusive of restricted shares. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated by assuming the vesting of unvested restricted stock and the exercise of outstanding stock options, as well as the satisfaction of certain contingent acquisition consideration conditions as of the end of the period. Refer to Note 3, “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the accounting for redeemable noncontrolling interests within earnings per share.

The following table reconciles the numerator and the denominator used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share:
