Note 11:       Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the additional common shares issuable in respect of restricted share awards, stock options and convertible preferred stock. Preferred stock dividends are subtracted from net earnings to determine the amount available to common stockholders.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share:

Potentially dilutive securities of 1,939,603 and 38,179 and were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for years ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 because the effects were anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method.
