Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

8. Per Share Data

The Company computes, presents and discloses earnings per share in accordance with the authoritative guidance, which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share of entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. The objective of basic EPS is to measure the performance of an entity over the reporting period by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding. The objective of diluted EPS is consistent with that of basic EPS, except that it also gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.

The following is a reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation:

		*Three Months Ended March 31,*
		*2025*				*2024*
Net (loss)/income for basic earnings per share		$	(408,223	)		$	10,277,340
Weighted-average shares			71,427,527				71,093,653
Effect of potential common shares			—				469,343
Weighted-average shares: diluted			71,427,527				71,562,996
(Loss)/Income per share: basic		$	(0.01	)		$	0.14
(Loss)/Income per share: diluted		$	(0.01	)		$	0.14

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, weighted-average diluted shares include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options and stock-settled RSUs. The dilutive effect of stock-settled RSUs and options is calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the average amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the award becomes deductible, are collectively assumed to be used to repurchase shares. Cash-settled RSUs were presumed to be cash-settled and therefore excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 because the net effect of their inclusion, including the elimination of the impact in the operating results of the change in fair value of these RSUs, would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the weighted average number of shares under the cash-settled RSUs excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share was 59,312.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred a loss and as a result, the equity instruments listed below were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as the effect of the exercise, conversion or vesting of such instruments would have been anti-dilutive. The weighted average number of equity instruments excluded consists of:

				*Three Months Ended March 31,*
				*2025*
Stock options				154,653
Restricted stock units⁽¹⁾				417,190

⁽¹⁾ For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the total excludes a weighted average of 40,075 cash-settled RSUs.
