9. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share assumes the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method, if dilutive.

The following is a reconciliation of the net income per share computation for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023:

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
Numerator:		February 29, 2024				February 28, 2023				February 29, 2024				February 28, 2023
Net income attributable to NTIC		$	1,701,169			$	411,497			$	2,596,690			$	913,739
Denominator:
Basic – weighted shares outstanding			9,427,598				9,366,357				9,427,588				9,353,989
Weighted shares assumed upon exercise of stock options			296,073				381,104				287,533				391,177
Diluted – weighted shares outstanding			9,723,671				9,747,461				9,715,121				9,745,166
Basic net income per share:		$	0.18			$	0.04			$	0.28			$	0.10
Diluted net income per share:		$	0.17			$	0.04			$	0.27			$	0.09

The dilutive impact summarized above relates to the periods when the average market price of the Company’s common stock exceeded the exercise price of the potentially dilutive option securities granted. Net income per common share was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods when computing basic net income per share. When dilutive, stock options are included as equivalents using the treasury stock market method when computing the diluted net income per share. Excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 were options outstanding to purchase 580,869 shares of common stock. Excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, were options outstanding to purchase 305,514 shares of common stock.
