16.    NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period and excludes the dilutive effect of stock options.  Diluted income per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period.  In computing diluted income per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be reacquired under the treasury stock method for the hypothetical exercise of stock options.

The following tables represent required disclosure of the reconciliation of the income and the shares used in the basic and diluted income per share computation:
