NOTE 11:                    EARNINGS PER SHARE

As per ASC 260, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares (the denominator) for the period presented. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.

Stock options to purchase 380,050 shares of common stock were outstanding and 314,050 were exercisable during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. Stock options to purchase 399,050 shares were outstanding and 314,910 were exercisable during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, potentially dilutive shares of 42,700 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effects would have been antidilutive. These securities may be dilutive to the earnings per share calculation in the future.

The dilutive potential common shares on warrants and options is calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, which assumes that proceeds from the exercise of all warrants and options are used to repurchase common stock at market value. The amount of shares remaining after the proceeds are exhausted represents the potential dilutive effect of the securities.
