Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings per Share/Capital Stock | Earnings per Share/Capital Stock In accordance with the accounting guidance for participating securities and earnings per share (“EPS”), Registrant uses the “two-class” method of computing EPS. The “two-class” method is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security. AWR has participating securities related to restricted stock units that earn dividend equivalents on an equal basis with AWR’s Common Shares, and that have been issued under AWR’s stock incentive plans for employees and the non-employee directors stock plans. In applying the “two-class” method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. The following is a reconciliation of Registrant’s net income and weighted average Common Shares outstanding used for calculating basic net income per share:
Basic: |  | For The Three Months Ended September 30, |  | For The Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands, except per share amounts) |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Net income |  | $ | 31,565 |  |  | $ | 25,654 |  |  | $ | 104,493 |  |  | $ | 59,767 |
Less: (a) Distributed earnings to common shareholders |  | 15,900 |  |  | 14,690 |  |  | 45,294 |  |  | 41,664 |
Distributed earnings to participating securities |  | 46 |  |  | 38 |  |  | 124 |  |  | 104 |
Undistributed earnings |  | 15,619 |  |  | 10,926 |  |  | 59,075 |  |  | 17,999 |
(b) Undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders |  | 15,574 |  |  | 10,897 |  |  | 58,913 |  |  | 17,955 |
Undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities |  | 45 |  |  | 29 |  |  | 162 |  |  | 44 |
Total income available to common shareholders, basic (a)+(b) |  | $ | 31,474 |  |  | $ | 25,587 |  |  | $ | 104,207 |  |  | $ | 59,619 |
Weighted average Common Shares outstanding, basic |  | 36,977 |  |  | 36,958 |  |  | 36,974 |  |  | 36,953 |
Basic earnings per Common Share |  | $ | 0.85 |  |  | $ | 0.69 |  |  | $ | 2.82 |  |  | $ | 1.61 |
Diluted EPS is based upon the weighted average number of Common Shares, including both outstanding shares and shares potentially issuable in connection with restricted stock units granted under AWR’s stock incentive plans for employees and directors, and net income. There were no stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and 2022 under these plans. At September 30, 2023 and 2022, there were 106,879 and 96,629 restricted stock units outstanding, respectively, including performance shares awarded to officers of the Company. The following is a reconciliation of Registrant’s net income and weighted average Common Shares outstanding for calculating diluted net income per share:
Diluted: |  | For The Three Months Ended September 30, |  | For The Nine Months Ended September 30,
