STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the respective period, after adjusting for any potential dilution from options to purchase the Company's common stock, assumed vesting of restricted stock and the assumed conversion of the Company’s convertible debentures. The following table provides the computation of diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:



	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019	2018	2019	2018
Computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	53,212,759	51,226,898	52,546,647	51,563,090
Incremental shares from assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock	1,489,700	1,494,766	1,399,123	1,537,018
Incremental shares from assumed conversion of convertible notes	—	771,171	—	771,171
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	54,702,459	53,492,835	53,945,770	53,871,279

The table includes the impact of all stock options and restricted stock that are dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes stock options or shares of restricted stock that are anti-dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding of approximately 782,000 and 805,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and approximately 1,209,000 and 1,124,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

The Company issued new Convertible Senior Notes ("Convertible Notes") due March 2049 on March 18, 2019 and retired the existing convertible notes ("Retired Convertible Notes") that would have matured in 2044 on May 28, 2019. The Company's Convertible Notes currently have and the Retired Convertible Notes had a settlement features requiring the Company upon conversion to settle the principal amount of the debt and any conversion value in excess of the principal value ("conversion premium"), for cash or shares of the Company's common stock or a combination thereof, at the Company's option. The Company has stated its intent to settle any conversion of these notes by paying cash for the principal value and issuing common stock for any conversion premium. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes and the Retired Convertible Notes were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if their inclusion was dilutive. The dilutive effect increases the more the market price exceeds the conversion price. The Retired Convertible Notes had a dilutive effect in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as the $83.77 market price per share of Common Stock as of June 30, 2018 exceeded the $72.18 conversion price per share. The Convertible Notes would only have a dilutive effect if the market price per share of common stock exceeds the conversion price of $188.73 per share. As of June 30, 2019, the Convertible Notes did not have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share. See Note 7, Debt Obligations, for more information about the convertible notes.

For the first half of 2019, the Company did not make any repurchases under the Repurchase Program. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Company to repurchase up to $120 million of the Company’s common stock concurrently with or following the issuance of the Convertible Notes.
