Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS PER SHARE FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the income from continuing operations 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 three months ended March 31, 2013 and April 1, 2012 as follows (in thousands, except per share data):
| Three Months Ended
| March 31, 2013 |  | April 1, 2012
Income from continuing operations | $ | 23,438 |  |  | $ | 13,756 |
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests | (18 | ) |  | (34 | )
Net income from continuing operations attributable to The GEO Group, Inc. | 23,420 |  |  | 13,722 |
Basic earnings per share attributable to The GEO Group, Inc.: |  |  |
Weighted average shares outstanding | 70,850 |  |  | 60,768 |
Per share amount from continuing operations | $ | 0.33 |  |  | $ | 0.23 |
Diluted earnings per share attributable to The GEO Group, Inc.: |  |  |
Weighted average shares outstanding | 70,850 |  |  | 60,768 |
Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options and restricted stock | 562 |  |  | 161 |
Weighted average shares assuming dilution | 71,412 |  |  | 60,929 |
Per share amount from continuing operations | $ | 0.33 |  |  | $ | 0.23 |
For the three months ended March 31, 2013, no shares of stock options or restricted stock were anti-dilutive. For the three months ended April 1, 2012, 202,094 weighted average shares of common stock underlying options and 1,262 shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
