10. Stockholders' Equity

The following table summarizes information about the Company's Common Stock at:
  September 30, December 31,
(Shares in thousands) 2013 2012 2012
Common stock authorized 30,000 30,000 30,000
Common stock issued 25,906 25,070 25,376
Treasury stock 2,684 2,684 2,684

 

     The following reconciliation details the denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

  Nine Months Ended Three Months Ended
  September 30, September 30,
(In thousands) 2013 2012 2013 2012
Weighted average shares outstanding        
for basic earnings per share 23,243 22,507 23,451 22,563
Common stock equivalents pertaining        
to stock options and contingently        
issuable deferred stock units 401 217 387 237
Weighted average shares outstanding        
for diluted earnings per share 23,644 22,724 23,838 22,800

 

     The weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, excludes the effect of 332,391 and 758,546 shares of common stock, respectively, subject to stock options, deferred stock units and stock awards. The weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 excludes the effect of 324,002 and 592,038 shares of common stock, respectively, subject to stock options, deferred stock units and stock awards. Such shares were excluded from total diluted shares because they were anti-dilutive or the specified performance conditions to which those shares were subject were not yet achieved.

     In 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in block trades. Of this authorization, 535,135 shares were repurchased prior to 2013 at an average price of $18.64 per share, or $10.0 million. The number of shares ultimately repurchased, and the timing of the purchases, will depend upon market conditions, share price and other factors.
