Note 3 — Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing net income allocable to common stockholders for each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Net income is also allocated to the unvested restricted stock outstanding during each period, as the restricted stock is entitled to receive dividends and is therefore considered a participating security. Unvested restricted stock is not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income; such amounts are allocated entirely to the common stockholders, other than the holders of unvested restricted stock. The restricted stock units awarded under the Pay-for-Performance program are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation, as these units are not participating securities (see Note 12).

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other rights exercisable for, or convertible into, common stock were exercised or converted or otherwise resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings of the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock includes 114,000 and 107,000 shares, respectively (of an aggregate of 200,000 shares) of common stock underlying the restricted stock units awarded pursuant to the Pay-For-Performance program. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, these amounts include (i) 100,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively, that would be issued upon satisfaction of a total stockholder return metric and (ii) 14,000 and 7,000 shares, respectively, that would be issued upon satisfaction of a return on capital metric.
