NOTE 6 – PER SHARE DATA

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated using the two-class method. The two-class method provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of basic EPS. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted-average number of shares determined for the basic EPS computation plus the shares resulting from the assumed exercise of all outstanding share-based awards using the treasury stock method. Weighted-average antidilutive stock options to purchase approximately 32,400 shares of Company common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $25.31 per share for both the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were excluded from diluted shares. There were no antidilutive other equity awards for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2015. Weighted-average antidilutive stock options to purchase approximately 907,000 and approximately 69,000 shares of Company common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $23.43 and $24.89 per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were excluded from diluted shares. There were no antidilutive other equity awards for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the periods shown:
