Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | 7. Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share excludes the dilutive effects of stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), warrants, and the nil coupon non-redeemable convertible unsecured loan notes. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of the nil coupon non-redeemable convertible unsecured loan notes, RSUs, warrants, and unexercised in-the-money stock options, except in periods of net loss where the effect of these instruments is anti-dilutive. Out-of-money stock options and warrants are excluded from diluted earnings per share because they are anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, basic earnings per share is equal to diluted earnings per share because all outstanding stock awards and convertible loan notes are considered anti-dilutive during periods of net loss. The following table sets forth the weighted-average shares used in calculating the earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, Fuel Tech had 520,000 outstanding equity awards that were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS as the inclusion of such would have been anti-dilutive due to a net loss in the period.
