Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
Revenues | Revenues The Company’s policies for recognizing sales have not changed from those described in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company sells a broad range of medical supplies, devices, laboratory equipment and diagnostic products which are distributed through independent distribution channels and directly by BD through sales representatives. End-users of the Company's products include healthcare institutions, physicians, life science researchers, clinical laboratories, the pharmaceutical industry and the general public. In the current and prior-year periods, the Company generated revenues attributable to licensing, which includes consideration received in exchange for the use of BD intellectual property by third parties. Measurement of Revenues The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of its trade receivables. Such estimated credit losses are determined based on historical loss experiences, customer-specific credit risk, and reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, such as country or regional risks that are not captured in the historical loss information. The allowance for doubtful accounts for trade receivables is not material to the Company's consolidated financial results. The Company's gross revenues are subject to a variety of deductions which are recorded in the same period that the underlying revenues are recognized. Such variable consideration includes rebates, sales discounts and sales returns. The Company’s rebate liability at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was $593 million and $538 million, respectively. The impact of other forms of variable consideration, including sales discounts and sales returns, is not material to the Company's revenues. Effects of Revenue Arrangements on Consolidated Balance Sheets Capitalized contract costs associated with the costs to fulfill contracts for certain products in the Medication Management Solutions organizational unit are immaterial to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Commissions relating to revenues recognized over a period longer than one year are recorded as assets which are amortized over the period over which the revenues underlying the commissions are recognized. Capitalized contract costs related to such commissions are immaterial to the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities for unearned revenue that is allocable to performance obligations, such as extended warranty and software maintenance contracts, which are performed over time, were approximately $440 million and $412 million as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and are included in Payables, accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company's liability for product warranties provided under its agreements with customers is not material to its condensed consolidated balance sheets. Remaining Performance Obligations The Company's obligations relative to service contracts and pending installations of equipment, primarily in the Company's Medication Management Solutions unit, represent unsatisfied performance obligations of the Company. The revenues under existing contracts with original expected durations of more than one year, which are attributable to products and/or services that have not yet been installed or provided are estimated to be approximately $2.3 billion at March 31, 2024. The Company expects to recognize the majority of this revenue over the next three years. Within the Company's Medication Management Solutions, Medication Delivery Solutions, Integrated Diagnostic Solutions, and Biosciences units, some contracts also contain minimum purchase commitments of reagents or other consumables, and the future sales of these consumables represent additional unsatisfied performance obligations of the Company. The revenue attributable to the unsatisfied minimum purchase commitment-related performance obligations, for contracts with original expected durations of more than one year, is estimated to be approximately $2.1 billion at March 31, 2024. This revenue will be recognized over the customer relationship periods. Disaggregation of Revenues A disaggregation of the Company's revenues by segment, organizational unit and geographic region is provided in Note 7.
