Net Loss Per Share Net Loss Per Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Restricted shares have non-forfeitable rights to dividends and as a result, are considered participating securities for purposes of computing net income per common share pursuant to the two-class method. Diluted net income per common share assumes the exercise of outstanding stock options and the vesting of performance share awards using the treasury stock method when the effects of such assumptions are dilutive.
A reconciliation of net loss attributable to Forward Air and weighted-average common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted net income per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 is as follows:
