9.  Earnings per Share

 

In calculating earnings per common share, we allocate our earnings between common shareholders and holders of unvested share-based payment awards (i.e. restricted stock) that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends. This earnings allocation is referred to as the two-class method.

 

Under the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated between common stock and participating securities (restricted stock) as if all of the net earnings for the period had been distributed.  Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net earnings allocable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards such as stock options and RSUs.  The following table reconciles earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (in thousands, except per share data):
