13. | Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Sterling Common Stockholders
Basic net loss per share attributable to Sterling common stockholders is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Sterling common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share attributable to Sterling common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to Sterling common stockholders but assumes the exercise of dilutive unvested common stock using the treasury stock method. The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted per common share computations for net loss attributable to Sterling common stockholders for 2016, 2015 and 2014 (amounts in thousands, except per share data):

Shares for dilutive unvested stock |  |  | -- |  |  |  | -- |  |  |  | -- |
Weighted average common shares outstanding and assumed conversions— diluted |  |  | 23,140 |  |  |  | 19,375 |  |  |  | 18,063 |
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Sterling common stockholders |  | $ | (0.40 | ) |  | $ | (2.02 | ) |  | $ | (0.54 | )
In accordance with the treasury stock method, approximately 0.4 million, 0.4 million and 0.2 million shares of unvested stock were excluded from the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as the Company incurred a loss in these years and the impact of such shares would have been antidilutive.
