The computations of earnings per share for 2020, 2019 and 2018 do not include 183,508, 176,013 and 123,701 weighted average shares, respectively, in respect of RSUs, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities whose effect would have been antidilutive were not significant for all years presented.
