Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

3.     SHARE INFORMATION

Earnings per share have been calculated using the following share information:

	Quarters Ended March 31,
		2013	2012
Weighted average number of common shares used for basic EPS		38,878,208	39,196,634
Effect of dilutive stock options and restricted and deferred stock unit awards		408,226	301,484
Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common stock used in dilutive EPS		39,286,434	39,498,118

The Company excluded 161,985 and 291,356 stock options for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, from the diluted earnings per share calculations for the Company’s common stock because they were anti-dilutive as their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common shares for each period.
