Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Significant Accounting Policies | Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s significant accounting policies as detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, continue to be applied at September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company has implemented two additional significant accounting policies as a result of activities that occurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2024:
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. Amounts in each of the accounts are unencumbered and unrestricted with respect to use. At September 30, 2024, the net positive cash balance related to this pooling arrangement is included in cash, and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue Recognition Policy - Instrument rental and reagent agreements | Revenue Recognition Policy – Instrument rental and reagent agreements: 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. Agreements that do not meet the criteria to be classified as a sales-type lease are classified as operating leases. Lease revenues from these agreements are presented in product revenue in the consolidated statements 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.
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.
