Exhibit 11.1 Statement regarding computation of earnings per share. The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with FAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, the Company was required to pay dividends on it's outstanding preferred convertible stock. Such preferred stock was converted into common stock on June 30, 1997. The preferred dividend requirements for the periods in which the preferred stock was outstanding have been added to the loss from continuing operations to arrive at net loss available to common shareholders in calculating basic earnings per share. The Company has stock options and warrants outstanding which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for periods presented. Such options and warrants were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and the three month period ended September 30, 1997. Weighted-average shares for the three months ended September 30, 1997 is calculated as follows: Dates Shares Fraction Weighted Outstanding Outstanding of Period Average Shares ----------- ----------- --------- -------------- July 1-July 9 11,469,780 9/92 1,122,044 Exercise of stock warrant on July 10 25,000 --------------------- July 10 11,494,780 1/92 124,943 Issuance of common stock on July 11 1,733,000 --------------------- July 11-August 14 13,227,780 35/92 5,032,308 Issuance of common stock on August 15 1,544,509 --------------------- August 15-August 28 14,772,289 14/92 2,247,957 Issuance of common stock on August 29 4,166,666 --------------------- August 29-September 10 18,938,955 13/92 2,676,157 Issuance of common stock on September 11 79,856 --------------------- September 11-September 30 19,018,811 20/92 4,134,524 --------------------- --------------------- Weighted average shares 15,337,933 ===================== Weighted-average shares for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is calculated as follows: Dates Shares Fraction Weighted Outstanding Outstanding of Period Average Shares ----------- ----------- --------- -------------- January 1-May 1, 1997 3,758,671 121/273 1,665,931 Issuance of common stock on May 2 3,387,187 --------------------- May 3-June 29 7,145,858 59/273 1,544,343 Conversion of preferred stock on June 30 4,323,922 --------------------- June 30-July 9 11,469,780 10/273 420,138 Exercise of stock warrant on July 10 25,000 --------------------- July 10 11,494,780 1/273 42,105 Issuance of common stock on July 11 1,733,000 --------------------- July 11-August 14 13,227,780 35/273 1,695,869 Issuance of common stock on August 15 1,544,509 --------------------- August 15-August 28 14,772,289 14/273 757,553 Issuance of common stock on August 29 4,166,666 --------------------- August 29-September 10 18,938,955 13/273 901,855 Issuance of common stock on September 11 79,856 --------------------- September 11-September 30 19,018,811 20/273 1,393,319 --------------------- --------------------- Weighted average shares 8,421,113 ===================== Weighted-average shares for the three months ended September 30, 1998 is calculated as follows: Dates Shares Fraction Weighted Outstanding Outstanding of Period Average Shares ----------- ----------- --------- -------------- July 1-July 5 22,870,603 5/92 1,242,968 Exercise of options on July 6 15,500 --------------------- July 6-July 12 22,886,103 7/92 1,741,334 Issuance of common stock on July 13 191,491 --------------------- July 13-July 22 23,077,594 10/92 2,508,434 Exercise of options on July 23 9,900 --------------------- July 23-August 4 23,087,494 13/92 3,262,363 Issuance of common stock on August 5 178,519 --------------------- August 5-August 10 23,266,013 6/92 1,517,349 Issuance of common stock on August 11 349,091 --------------------- August 11-September 30 23,615,104 51/92 13,090,982 --------------------- --------------------- Weighted average shares 23,363,430 ===================== Weighted-average shares for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 is calculated as follows: Dates Shares Fraction Weighted Outstanding Outstanding of Period Average Shares ----------- ----------- --------- -------------- January 1 -
