Earnings Per Share
EARNINGS PER SHARE
For the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated to give effect to all dilutive securities, using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

The potentially dilutive stock options, restricted stock units and performance stock units that would have been excluded because the effect would have been antidilutive for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2014 were 0.0 million and 0.4 million, respectively, as compared to 2.0 million and 1.7 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share amounts are computed independently in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. Therefore, the sum of per share components may not equal the per share amounts presented.

From time to time, our Board of Directors authorizes share repurchase programs for the repurchase of our common stock through open market and private transactions. The manner and pace of our repurchases under these programs is based on market conditions and other relevant factors. As a result of the proposed merger with BD, we have suspended repurchases of our common stock under our share repurchase programs.

In August 2013, we announced that our Board of Directors had approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $750 million of our common stock. We have repurchased a total of 16.9 million shares of our common stock under this program for an aggregate of $680 million (excluding commissions and fees). Under this program, we repurchased a total of 2.3 million shares for an aggregate of $103 million (excluding commissions and fees) during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. We did not repurchase any shares under this program during the quarter ended December 31, 2014.

In August 2014, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $750 million of our common stock through June 2016. We have not repurchased any shares under this program.
