Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
NET LOSS PER SHARE

NOTE G – NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic (loss) earnings per share attributable to common shareholders is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excluding the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted (loss) earnings per share include the effect of all potentially dilutive securities on earnings per share. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based compensation awards is computed using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted earnings per shares does not assume exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. Diluted (loss) earnings per share is not presented separately because there are no adjustments to the numerator in calculating dilutive net loss per share and all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents would be antidilutive.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the shares used in the calculation of basic and dilutive (loss) earnings per share and anti-dilutive equity based compensation awards (in thousands):
