Reconciliation of Weighted Average Shares Outstanding

Note 8 — Reconciliation of Weighted Average Shares Outstanding

A reconciliation of the shares used in the computation of earnings per share follows (shares in thousands):

	Three Months Ended January 31,					Nine Months Ended January 31,
	2021		2020			2021			2020
Weighted average shares outstanding		55,984		56,083			55,968			56,328
Less: Unvested restricted shares		—		(10	)		(1	)		(16	)
Shares used for basic earnings per share		55,984		56,073			55,967			56,312
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock units and other stock awards		348		430			263			386
Shares used for diluted earnings per share		56,332		56,503			56,230			56,698

Since their inclusion in the calculation of diluted earnings per share would have been anti-dilutive, options to purchase 0.1 million and 0.2 million shares of Class A Common Stock have been excluded for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, respectively, and options to purchase 0.2 million shares of Class A Common Stock have been excluded for both the three and nine months ended January 31, 2020, respectively.

Nominal number of restricted shares have been excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, respectively as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. No restricted shares were excluded for the three months ended January 31, 2020, and 0.1 million shares have been excluded for the nine months ended January 31, 2020 as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Warrants to purchase 0.5 million shares of Class A Common Stock have been excluded for both the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, respectively as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Warrants to purchase 0.5 million shares of Class A Common Stock have been excluded for both the three and nine months ended January 31, 2020, respectively as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The shares associated with performance-based stock awards are considered contingently issuable shares and will be included in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding when they have met the performance conditions and when their effect is dilutive. The number of shares related to performance-based stock awards outstanding which were not included in diluted earnings per share was 0.6 million shares for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, respectively, and 0.5 million shares for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2020, respectively.
