The dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards has been calculated using the treasury-stock method. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 an aggregate of less than 0.1 million restricted stock units ("RSUs") were excluded from the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect. There were no anti-dilutive common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, an aggregate of less than 0.1 million RSUs and an aggregate of less than 0.1 million stock options, respectively, were excluded from the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding due to their anti-dilutive effect.
