Net Income Per Share Information

Net Loss per Share Information

Basic net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similarly to basic earnings per share, except that it reflects the effect of common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, using the treasury stock method in periods in which they have a dilutive effect. Shares used to calculate net loss per share for fiscal years 2018 and 2017 are as follows:   

	2018	2017
Basic Weighted average shares outstanding	7,696,091	7,693,831
Effect of dilutive stock options	-	-
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	7,696,091	7,693,831
Weighted average shares which are not included in
the calculation of diluted net loss per share
because their impact is anti-dilutive. These shares
consist of stock options.	1,522,000	1,594,000

Weighted average options to purchase 1,522,000 and 1,594,000 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $1.40 to $5.48 per share that were outstanding during fiscal years 2018 and 2017, were excluded from each respective year’s computation of diluted earnings per share. In each of these years, such options’ exercise prices exceeded the average market price of our common stock, thereby causing the effect of such options to be anti-dilutive.
