BASIC AND DILUTED INCOME PER SHARE

2. BASIC AND DILUTED INCOME PER SHARE

Basic income per share is computed by dividing income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing income by the weighted average number of common and potential dilutive common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share takes into consideration the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options resulting in approximately 349,000 and 481,000 potential dilutive common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 419,000 and 490,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, none of the outstanding stock options would have been anti-dilutive.
