Note 9 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share for continuing and discontinued operations are computed by dividing the respective net income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that shared in the earnings of the entity. Diluted earnings (loss) per share also utilize the treasury stock method which prescribes a theoretical buy-back of shares from the theoretical proceeds of all options and warrants outstanding during the period. Options and warrants outstanding to acquire shares of our Common Stock at June 30, 2018 and 2017 were 2,819,500 and 2,209,000, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 dilutive earnings (loss) per share were the same as basic earnings per share due to the inclusion of Common Stock in the form of stock options and warrants (“Common Stock Equivalents”), when in a net loss position would have an anti-dilutive effect on loss per share. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were 1,113,320 and 641,754 Common Stock Equivalents, that were in the money, that were excluded from the earnings (loss) per share computation as a consequence of their anti-dilutive effect.

For the six months ended June 30 2018, there were 889,968, Common Stock Equivalents which were in the money, that were excluded from the earnings (loss) per share computation as a consequence of their anti-dilutive effect. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 there were 650,190 Common Stock Equivalents that were in the money, which were included in the fully diluted earnings per share computation.
