Earnings Per Share
Note 13: Earnings Per Share

Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we began applying the two-class method of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (the “Two-Class Method”) as it became significantly more dilutive than the previously applied treasury stock method as a result of stock repurchases increasing the average number of unvested restricted awards as a percentage of total common shares outstanding.
The Two-Class Method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security, as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common shareholders and assumes all earnings for the period are distributed. Our unvested restricted stock awards granted are participating securities as they entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock.
Our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

Participating securities were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share using the two-class method, as this calculation was more dilutive than the calculation using the treasury stock method.
