Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Under ASC 260, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and warrants for common shares using the treasury stock method. The numerator in calculating both basic and diluted earnings per common share for each period is the reported net income.

 

The denominator is based on the following weighted average number of common shares:

 

    Three Months
Ended September 30,
  Nine Months
Ended September 30,
 
    2018     2017     2018     2017  
Basic     9,266,962       8,106,499       8,499,967       8,120,091  
Incremental shares for assumed exercise of options     7,860       10,652       7,757       11,309  
Diluted     9,274,822       8,117,151       8,507,724       8,131,400  

 

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018, 46,902 and 47,005, exercisable stock options and warrants were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation, respectively, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, 59,991 and 59,334, exercisable stock options and warrants were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation, respectively, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
