In both second quarter and first six months 2018, options to purchase 407,573 shares of common stock were excluded from the shares treated as outstanding for computation of diluted EPS because the market value of option exercises for these awards were less than the cash proceeds that would be received from these exercises. Second quarter and first six months 2018 reflect the impact of share repurchases of 1,415,539 and 2,409,774, respectively.

In second quarter and first six months 2017, options to purchase 850,970 and 1,008,667 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the shares treated as outstanding for computation of diluted EPS because the market value of option exercises for these awards were less than the cash proceeds that would be received from these exercises. Second quarter and first six months 2017 reflect the impact of share repurchases of 1,232,977 and 2,176,676, respectively.
