DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Advanced Energy Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Advanced Energy,” or the “Company”) provides highly engineered, critical, precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions to our global customers. We design, manufacture, sell and support precision power products that transform, refine, and modify the raw electrical power coming from either the utility or the building facility and convert it into various types of highly controllable, usable power that is predictable, repeatable, and customizable to meet the necessary requirements for powering a wide range of complex equipment. Many of our products enable customers to reduce or optimize their energy consumption through increased power conversion efficiency, power density, power coupling, and process control across a wide range of applications. In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly Advanced Energy’s financial position as of September 30, 2024, and the results of our operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and other financial information filed with the SEC. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates, assumptions, and judgments include, but are not limited to, excess and obsolete inventory, income taxes and other provisions, and acquisitions and asset valuations. ​ Significant Accounting Policies Our accounting policies are described in Note 1. Summary of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates to our audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. ​ New Accounting Standards From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. New Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 “Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” ASU 2023-07 expands disclosure requirements to require additional information about significant segment expenses. In addition, the ASU enhances interim disclosures, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and provides new disclosures requirements for entities with a single reportable segment. This guidance will be effective for us in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2024. We do not expect the above guidance to materially impact our consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional disclosure on income taxes paid. This guidance will be effective for us on January 1, 2025. We do not expect the above guidance to materially impact our consolidated financial statements. In March 2024, the SEC issued climate-related disclosure rules. These rules do not change accounting treatment, but they significantly expand the climate-related information companies are required to disclose. Several petitions were filed challenging these climate-related disclosure rules and, in April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the rules, pending completion of judicial review. We do not expect the above disclosure requirement to materially impact our consolidated financial statements. We are evaluating the disclosure requirements and changes to our business processes, systems, and controls to support the additional disclosures. ​
