​ Certain outstanding options are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because they are anti-dilutive (i.e., their assumed conversion into common stock would increase rather than decrease earnings per share). The options excluded totaled 1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. ​ The company declared and paid dividends of $0.15 per share in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $0.10 per share in the three months ended March 31, 2019, respectively.
