Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Income Per Share Net Income Per Share
CRA calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method. CRA calculates diluted earnings per share using the more dilutive of either the two-class method or the treasury stock method. The two-class method was more dilutive for the fiscal quarters and fiscal year-to-date periods ended October 3, 2026 and September 27, 2025.
Under the two-class method, net earnings are allocated to each class of common stock and participating security as if all net earnings for the period had been distributed. CRA's participating securities consist of unvested share-based payment awards that contain a nonforfeitable right to receive dividends and therefore are considered to participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Net earnings allocable to these participating securities were not material for the fiscal quarters and fiscal year-to-date periods ended October 3, 2026 and September 27, 2025.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except per share data):

Anti-dilutive share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of common stock equivalents for purposes of computing diluted weighted average shares outstanding. For the fiscal quarter and fiscal year-to-date period ended October 3, 2026, the anti-dilutive share-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of common stock equivalents for purposes of
computing diluted weighted average shares outstanding amounted to 6,562 and 4,181 shares, respectively. There were no anti-dilutive share-based awards for the fiscal quarter period ended September 27, 2025. For the fiscal year-to-date period ended September 27, 2025, the anti-dilutive share-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of common stock equivalents for purposes of computing diluted weighted average shares outstanding amounted to 1,283 shares.
