Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS PER SHARE Stock Repurchase Program On July 14, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to $100.0 million of the Company's common stock effective through December 31, 2012. The stock repurchase program will be funded primarily with cash on hand, free cash flow, and borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility. The stock repurchase program is intended to be implemented through purchases made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities and stock exchange requirements. The program may also include repurchases from time to time from executive officers or directors of vested restricted stock and/or vested stock options. The stock repurchase program does not obligate the Company to purchase any specific amount of its common stock and may be suspended or extended at any time at the Company’s discretion. During the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012, the Company purchased 3.9 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $75.0 million primarily purchased with proceeds from the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility. Repurchases of common stock under the stock repurchase program during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2012 were not significant. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to The GEO Group, Inc. shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is similar to that of basic earnings per share, except that the denominator includes dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and shares of restricted stock. Basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations were calculated for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011 as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

No shares of restricted stock were anti-dilutive. For the thirteen weeks ended October 2, 2011, 123,738 weighted average shares of common stock underlying options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive. 106 shares of restricted stock were anti-dilutive. Thirty-nine Weeks For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2012, 59,915 weighted average shares of common stock underlying options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive. 538 shares of restricted stock were anti-dilutive. For the thirty-nine weeks ended October 2, 2011, 79,466 weighted average shares of common stock underlying options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
