During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company entered into forward sale agreements in connection with its at-the-market equity program to sell an aggregate of 2,003,118 shares of common stock (the “2019 ATM Forward Offerings”). During the first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into forward sale agreements under this program to sell an aggregate of 3,169,754 shares of common stock (the “2020 ATM Forward Offerings”). On March 30, 2020, 1,245,118 and 155,133 shares from the 2019 and 2020 ATM Forward Offerings were settled, respectively.
To account for the potential dilution resulting from the 2019 and 2020 ATM Forward Offerings on earnings per share calculations, the Company used the treasury stock method to determine the dilution during the period of time prior to settlement. The impacts from the 2019 and 2020 ATM Forward Offerings on the Company’s weighted-average diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were 57,158 and 2,636 weighted-average incremental shares, respectively.
