For the three months ended November 30, 2013 and 2012, 40,000 potential common shares (issuable upon conversion of 36,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock) have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
