The Company has outstanding Convertible Notes, and the principal balance and any conversion premium may be satisfied, at the Company’s option, by issuing shares of common stock, cash or a combination of shares and cash. The Company's policy is that it will settle the principal balance of the Convertible Notes in cash. As such, the Company applies the treasury stock method to these securities and the dilution related to the conversion premium of the 2010 Notes is included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for fiscal 2015 as the average stock price during the quarterly periods was greater than the conversion price of the 2010 Notes.
