Restricted stock units of 859,000 during fiscal year 2016 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of a net loss incurred during the period. Approximately 120,000 shares of unvested restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015 as their effect would be anti-dilutive based on the treasury stock method. Options to purchase approximately 11,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share attributable to Brooks Automation, Inc. common stockholders for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 as their effect would be anti-dilutive based on the treasury stock method. There were no anti-dilutive restricted stock awards for the fiscal year ended September 2014. There were no options outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and 2015.
On November 9, 2016, the Company's compensation committee and Board of Directors authorized and approved the annual grant of approximately 952,200 restricted stock units with a grant date of November 9, 2016.
