10. (Loss)/Earnings Per Common Share

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2019

Basic net (loss)/earnings per common share is computed by dividing (loss)/income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted (loss)/earnings per common share reflect, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the impact of common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options as well as non-vested restricted stock awards. The computation of diluted (loss)/earnings per common share excludes those options with an exercise price in excess of the average market price of the Company’s common shares during the periods presented.

The computation of diluted (loss)/earnings per common share excludes outstanding options in periods where the exercise of such options would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, no options were included in the computation of diluted (loss)/earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive for the relevant periods and, as a result, the weighted average number of common shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share has not been adjusted for the effect of such options.

The reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted (loss)/earnings per common share follows:
