(1)The outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average basic shares outstanding exclude 2,865,399, 2,742,917 and 2,787,807 of restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, net of forfeitures, respectively, as those shares were issued but were not vested and therefore, not considered outstanding for purposes of computing basic net income (loss) per common share.
(2)The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of weighted average unvested non-participating restricted shares of 2,872,241, 2,709,429 and 2,734,075 for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, as the effect would be antidilutive.

About Earnings Per Share Disclosures

The earnings per share disclosure breaks down the calculation from net income to both basic and diluted EPS, revealing the full impact of a company's capital structure on per-share economics. The reconciliation between basic and diluted share counts exposes how many stock options, RSUs, convertible securities, and warrants are potentially dilutive to existing shareholders.

Key signals: a widening gap between basic and diluted shares indicates growing dilution from equity compensation or convertible instruments. Anti-dilutive securities excluded from the diluted calculation deserve attention — they represent latent dilution that will materialize if the stock price rises. Watch for the effect of share buybacks on per-share metrics: EPS growth driven primarily by repurchases rather than income growth signals weakening fundamentals. Compare year-over-year changes in the diluted share count against equity compensation expense to assess whether management is effectively managing dilution.
