Basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period, without consideration of common share equivalents. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, pre-funded warrants and common share equivalents outstanding for the period. The pre-funded warrants are included in the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share as the exercise price is negligible and the pre-funded warrants are fully vested and exercisable. Common share equivalents are only included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per common share when their effect is dilutive. The following table is a reconciliation of the share amounts used in computing earnings per share:

Potential dilutive securities, which include unvested restricted stock units (RSUs), unvested performance-based RSUs and performance-based options to purchase common stock for which established performance criteria have been achieved as of the end of the respective periods, vested and unvested options to purchase common stock and shares to be issued under our employee stock purchase plan (ESPP), have been excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings (loss) per common share as the effect is antidilutive. Therefore, the denominator used to calculate both basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is the same in all periods for which we record a net loss.
