Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
The Company has granted restricted stock awards with dividend rights that are considered to be participating securities. Accordingly, a portion of the Company’s earnings is allocated to those participating securities in the earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation under the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method by dividing income available to common stockholders after the allocation of dividends and undistributed earnings to the participating securities by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using the more dilutive of the treasury stock method or the two-class method. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, and is computed after giving consideration to the weighted average dilutive effect of the Company’s stock options, warrants, and non-vested restricted stock, where applicable. Diluted EPS under the two-class method also considers the allocation of earnings to the participating securities. Antidilutive securities are disregarded in earnings per share calculations. Diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2022, September 30, 2021, and the transition period ended December 31, 2021 shown below reflects the two-class method, as diluted EPS under the two-class method was more dilutive than under the treasury stock method.

A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) and common stock share amounts used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is presented below.

The following table represents common stock equivalents that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2022, September 30, 2021, and the transition period ended December 31, 2021, because the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:
