Earnings Per Share

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2015

The following is a reconciliation of the average shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share.



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015	2014
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding	135,641,914	134,187,169
Effect of dilutive securities	—	2,860,541
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	135,641,914	137,047,710

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the total number of potentially dilutive options was 1.5 million. However, because the company had a loss from continuing operations for the quarter, these dilutive options were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share, since to do so would decrease the loss per share.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, 2.2 million and 1.2 million, respectively, of common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options were anti-dilutive and were excluded from the calculation of diluted shares.

No dividends were paid during each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014.
