Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share |
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares and, except for periods with a loss from operations, participating securities outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company include convertible securities, options and warrants.
Earnings (loss) per common share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 excludes the effects of 19.2 million and 35.1 million common share equivalents, respectively, since such inclusion would be anti-dilutive. The excluded shares consist of common shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, and upon the conversion of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock.
The Company’s unvested stock awards contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid (referred to as “participating securities”). Therefore, the unvested stock awards are required to be included in the number of shares outstanding for both basic and diluted earnings per share calculations. However, due to our loss from continuing operations, 605,250 and 736,250 shares of unvested restricted stock were excluded in determining basic and diluted loss per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
