Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Share Earnings Per Share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to
common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding
securities, and such dilutive effect is computed using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except share and per
share amounts):

and restricted stock units of 3,982,055 and 432,792 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025,
respectively, because their effect was antidilutive as calculated under the treasury stock method.
