Earnings Per Share [Text Block] |
13. | Per Share Calculation
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) (the “numerator”) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for nonvested shares of restricted stock (the “denominator”) for the period. Computing diluted earnings per share is similar to computing basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the dilutive effects of options and nonvested shares of restricted stock. Any options that have an exercise price greater than the average market price are considered to be anti-dilutive and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. All outstanding nonvested shares that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents that participate in undistributed earnings with common stock are considered participating securities and are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings in periods when we have net income. The Company’s restricted common stock (“nonvested shares”) are considered participating securities. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented below were calculated as follows:

Denominator for diluted earnings per share – weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 6,518 |  |  |  | 5,971 |  |  |  | 6,502 |  |  |  | 5,964 |
Basic earnings (loss) per share |  | $ | 2.27 |  |  | $ | (1.27 | ) |  | $ | 1.52 |  |  | $ | (6.76 | )
Diluted earnings (loss) per share |  | $ | 2.16 |  |  | $ | (1.27 | ) |  | $ | 1.44 |  |  | $ | (6.76 | )
There were 0.2 and 0.3 million incremental shares attributed to nonvested stock and outstanding options to purchase common stock for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, which were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because we had a net loss for the period. In addition, shares related to out-of-the money stock options that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share were 0.2 million for each of the three and nine months ended July 31, 2020 and the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019 because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
