Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

3 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2015

The weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute earnings per share was as follows:



	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2015	2014
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	65,954	65,935
Dilutive effect of employee stock options and unvested RSUs	334	963
Denominator for diluted earnings per share	66,288	66,898

For the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, 14,000 and zero unvested restricted stock units (RSUs), respectively, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive.
