8. Earnings Per Share

        The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method, an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings, when that method results in a more dilutive effect than the treasury method. The Company's unvested grants of restricted stock contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, should any be declared, and are treated as participating securities and included in the computation of earnings per share.

        Net income available to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows:

        Employee stock options to purchase approximately 358,000 and 112,000 shares of common stock during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and employee stock options to purchase approximately 90,000 shares of common stock during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 were outstanding but not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, potential common shares related to the unvested portion of performance awards of approximately 12,000 and 60,000, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the underlying performance obligation was not met as of the end of the period.
