The calculation excludes the effect of common equivalent shares resulting from stock options using the treasury stock method as the effect would not be material. Fully diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding for each period. (1) This calculation is submitted in accordance with Regulation S-K item 601(b)(11) although not required by APB Opinion No. 15 because it results in dilution of less than 3%.
