Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
General | GENERAL The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by Danaher Corporation (“Danaher” or the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In this quarterly report, the terms “Danaher” or the “Company” refer to Danaher Corporation, Danaher Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, or the consolidated subsidiaries of Danaher Corporation, as the context requires. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations; however, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 23, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”). In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of April 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, its results of operations for the three-month periods ended April 1, 2022 and April 2, 2021 and its cash flows for each of the three-month periods then ended. There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report that have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and the related Notes. Reclassifications of certain prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. Accounting Standards Recently Adopted—In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU includes amendments to the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments which include beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features by removing certain separation models in Subtopic 470-20. Additionally, the ASU requires entities to use the “if-converted” method when calculating diluted earnings per common share for convertible instruments. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted the ASU and the ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832), which requires annual disclosures of transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. For the Company, these disclosures will initially be required for the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These required annual disclosures include information on the nature of transactions and related accounting policies used to account for transactions, detail of the line items on the balance sheet and income statement affected by these transactions, including amounts applicable to each line, and significant terms and conditions of the transactions including commitments and contingencies. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted the ASU. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU and drafting the annual disclosures. Operating Leases—As of April 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, operating lease right-of-use assets where the Company was the lessee were approximately $1.0 billion in both periods and are included within other long-term assets in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The associated operating lease liabilities were approximately $1.1 billion as of April 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities and other long-term liabilities.
