Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

10.  Earnings Per Share

Hancock calculates earnings per share using the two-class method.  The two-class method allocates net income to each class of common stock and participating security according to common dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings.  Participating securities consist of unvested stock-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. 

A summary of the information used in the computation of earnings per common share follows.

Potential common shares consist of employee and director stock options.  These potential common shares do not enter into the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact would be anti-dilutive, i.e., increase earnings per share or reduce a loss per share.  Weighted-average anti-dilutive potential common shares totaled 548,821 and 574,037, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.  Weighted-average anti-dilutive potential common shares totaled 602,809 and843,544, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.
