Multi-Currency Notional Cash Pooling Policy | Multi-Currency Notional Cash Pooling Policy Effective during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company entered into a master netting arrangement with a third-party financial institution whereby certain subsidiaries participate in a notional cash pooling arrangement to manage global liquidity requirements. As part of the master netting arrangement, the participating subsidiaries combine their cash balances in pooling accounts at the same financial institution with the ability to offset bank overdrafts of one participant against positive cash account balances held by another participant. Under the terms of the master netting arrangement, the financial institution has the right, ability, and intent to offset a positive balance in one account against an overdrawn amount in another account. Amounts in each of the accounts are unencumbered and unrestricted with respect to use. As such, the net positive cash balance related to this pooling arrangement is included in cash, and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets. The notional cash pool runs daily on a net positive cash basis and is not intended to be used as a source of funding. In the event there is a one-day net overdraft due to the timing of bank postings, the overdraft would represent a short-term loan from the bank and would be classified as current debt on the consolidated balance sheets and financing cash flows in the consolidated statement of cash flows. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was not in a net overdraft position with respect to the notional cash pooling arrangement.
Revenue Recognition Policy | Revenue Recognition Policy Revenues from instrument rental and reagent agreements provide customers with the right to use the Company’s instruments upon entering into multi-year agreements to purchase annual minimum amounts of reagents. These types of agreements include an embedded lease relating to the customer’s right to use the Company’s instruments over the period of the agreement. The agreement transaction price is allocated between the instrument and the reagents based on their relative standalone selling prices. When collectability of payments due is probable, reagent rental programs that effectively transfer control of instruments to customers are classified as sales-type leases and instrument revenue and cost of revenue are recognized upon the transfer of control to the customer which is often in advance of billings to the customer. The Company’s right to future consideration from reagent purchases under the agreement is allocated to instrument revenue and is recorded as a lease receivable within other current and long-term assets. Revenues from instrument rental and reagent agreements where collectability of payments due is not probable or that do not transfer control of the instruments to customers are classified as operating leases and instrument revenue and costs of revenue are recognized over the term of the agreement. The cost of the instrument is capitalized as a long-term asset and depreciated to cost of revenues. Lease revenues from these agreements are presented in product revenue in the consolidated statement of income.
Risks and Uncertainties | Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to the same risks and uncertainties as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024, however, as of January 1, 2024, the Company is subject to new risks related to its self-funded health insurance. Effective January 1, 2024, the Company is self-insured for health care claims for eligible participating U.S. employees subject to certain deductibles and limitations. The Company determines its liability for claims incurred but not reported for insurance liabilities on an actuarial basis. Since there are many estimates and assumptions involved in recording insurance liabilities, differences between actual future events and prior estimates and assumptions, could result in materially different amounts of expense and result in adjustments to these liabilities and materially different amounts of expense, which could harm our business and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis the Company evaluates estimates, judgments and methodologies. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity and the amount of revenues and expenses. The full extent to which the global supply chain interruptions, higher energy costs and shortages, increased costs of and delivery times for critical raw materials, the global economy, including inflation and the threat of recession, and geopolitical instability will directly or indirectly impact future business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expenses, reserves and allowances, manufacturing, research and development costs and employee cost related amounts, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new developments concerning global supply chain and various global conflicts. The Company has made estimates of the impact of these disruptions within the financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Actual results may differ from management’s estimates if these results differ from historical experience.
