Options and warrants included in the computation of diluted earnings per share are so included on the treasury stock method. For each of the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 62,500 and 322,500, respectively, outstanding options and warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share due to their having an anti-dilutive effect. Diluted earnings per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 includes an $82 after tax addback of interest expense and 2.3 million additional shares related to the assumed conversion of convertible investor notes. Diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 includes an $169 after tax addback of interest expense and 2.3 million additional shares related to the assumed conversion of convertible investor notes.

Holders of restricted stock awards participate in nonforfeitable dividend rights on a one-for-one basis with holders of common stock. Holders of these awards are not obligated to share in losses of the Company. Therefore, these share awards are included in the computation of basic earnings per share during periods of net income using the two-class method, but are excluded from such computation in periods of net loss. Should the Company declare a dividend on its common stock, the related dividend on shares of unvested restricted stock that are not expected to vest would be recorded as additional compensation expense and therefore excluded from the two-class method computations; however, there were no non-vested restricted share awards outstanding for the three months and six months periods ended June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012. Undistributed earnings included in the two-class method computations are allocated equally to each share of common stock outstanding, including all shares of unvested restricted common shares.

Once a restricted stock award vests, it is included in the computation of weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Dividends

The Company declared and on June 28, 2013 paid to common stockholders a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share compared to $0.035 in the same period in 2012. The dividend policy and the payment of cash dividends under that policy are subject to the Board of Director’s continuing determination that the dividend policy and the declaration of dividends are in the best interest of the Company’s shareholders. Future dividends and the dividend policy may be changed or cancelled at the Company’s discretion at any time. Payment of dividends is also subject to the continuing consent of our lender under our Bank Facility.
