13. Net Income Per Common Share

Impact of the Convertible Notes

The Company considers shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted net income per share when their effect is dilutive. The Company has the option to settle the Notes through cash settlement or a combination of cash and share settlement provided that the principal is settled in cash and the conversion spread is settled in cash or shares as elected by the Company. The Company considers the Notes to be participating securities through the two-class method. Per the terms of the Indenture, the Company determined that if a cash dividend is paid that is greater than the stock price at the time such dividend is declared, the holders of the Notes will receive cash on an if-converted basis. While this feature is considered to be a participating right, basic income attributable to common stockholders is only impacted if the Company’s earnings per share exceeds the current share price, regardless of whether such dividend is declared. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, no such dividend was declared, and the Company’s earnings per share did not exceed its share price. The Company is required to settle the principal amount of the Notes in cash upon conversion, and convertibility of the Notes is dependent upon the Company’s share price. Therefore, the Company used the if-converted method for calculating the dilutive effect of the conversion option on diluted net income per share. The conversion option will have a dilutive impact on net income per share of common stock when the average price per share of the Company's common stock for a given period exceeds the Conversion Price of the Notes. See Note 11, “Long-Term Debt, and Other Borrowings, Net of Current Portion” for further discussion on the Notes.
