17. NET LOSS PER SHARE
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts based upon net income (loss) for the periods presented. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period including the effect of outstandi ng dilutive securities.
The Company applies the two-class method to calculate its basic and diluted net income (loss) per share as the Company has issued shares of restricted Common Stock that meet the definition of participating securities. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common stockholders. The Company’s participating securities contractually entitle the holders of such shares to participate in dividends; but do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in losses of the Company. Accordingly, in periods in which the Company reports a net loss, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share, since dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):

The Company’s potentially dilutive securities include Warrants, Earn-Out Shares, options to purchase Common Stock and unvested restricted Common Stock. These potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from
the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share.
The Company excluded the following potential shares of Common Stock, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:
