6. Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share have been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share included the effect of all potential common shares outstanding during each period. The diluted earnings per share computation for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 included all unexercised stock options, as no stock options were determined to be anti-dilutive during such periods. The Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.21 per share to be paid August 27, 2026, to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 13, 2026. The shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated are shown below:
