Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
EARNINGS PER SHARE

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share is computed using the two-class method, considering the restricted common shares, due to their participation rights in dividends of the Company. Under this method, the Company’s net income is reduced by the portion of net income attributable to the restricted common shares, and this amount is divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding.

The components of earnings per share are as follows for the three months ended March 31 (in thousands):
