Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 exclude the effect of 0.1 and 0.0 million shares of common stock (0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013) respectively, that may be issued upon the exercise of employee stock options because such effect would be antidilutive.
