14.                               Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

 

We present both basic and diluted EPS.  We compute basic EPS by dividing net income available to common shareholders allocable to unrestricted common shares under the two-class method by the weighted average number of unrestricted common shares outstanding during the period.  Our computation of diluted EPS is similar except that:

 

·                  the denominator is increased to include: (1) the weighted average number of potential additional common shares that would have been outstanding if securities that are convertible into our common shares were converted; and (2) the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period attributable to share-based compensation using the treasury stock or if-converted methods; and

·                  the numerator is adjusted to add back any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion into common shares that we added to the denominator.

 

Summaries of the numerator and denominator for purposes of basic and diluted EPS calculations are set forth below (in thousands, except per share data):

The following share-based compensation securities were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their effect was antidilutive:

 

·                  weighted average restricted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of 624,000 and 664,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of 637,000 and 662,000, respectively; and

·                  weighted average options for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of 625,000 and 561,000, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 of 623,000 and 570,000, respectively.

 

As discussed in Note 7, we have outstanding senior notes that have an exchange settlement feature but did not affect our diluted EPS reported above since the weighted average closing price of our common shares during each of the periods was less than the exchange prices per common share applicable for such periods.
