Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for a full year. These financial statements and related notes contain the accounts of DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc. and subsidiaries (“Dentsply Sirona” or the “Company”) on a consolidated basis and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The accounting policies of the Company, as applied in the interim consolidated financial statements presented herein are substantially the same as presented in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except as may be indicated below. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made certain estimates and assumptions related to the financial statements. Some of these estimates and assumptions were based on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic as they were known as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates. As of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will directly or indirectly have a negative material impact on the Company's financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations, is highly uncertain and difficult to predict. More specifically, the demand for the Company's products has been, and continues to be, affected by social distancing guidelines, newly implemented dental practice safety protocols which reduce patient traffic, and patient reluctance to seek dental care. At this time, it is uncertain how long these impacts will continue. The impact of the stay-at-home orders and limits to essential-only dental procedures affected demand for the Company's products in March and April, and began to see improvements in May and June as some of these orders were lifted. Furthermore, economies and, to a lesser extent, capital markets worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could prolong or deepen the United States and/or global economic recession. Such economic disruption has had, and could continue to have, a significant negative effect on the Company's business. Governmental authorities around the world have responded with fiscal policy actions to support economies as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain. During the first six months of 2020, the Company's business was impacted by COVID-19. The impact began in mid-March where it was most pronounced in Europe and certain countries in Asia where the Company experienced partial or country-wide lockdowns of operations in various markets; including China, France, and Italy. The United States was most impacted in April and May. Certain other countries in South America continue to be impacted by many COVID-19 case s. Additionally, most countries throughout the world continue to experience localized surges of COVID-19 cases which are being responded to by governmental authorities with partial lockdowns. While the duration and severity of this continuing p andemic is uncertain, the Company currently expects that its results of operations will have a negative material impact for the remainder of 2020 and potentially beyond. As a result of the economic uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has implemented several measures to improve liquidity and operating results, including reduction of hours and salaries, furloughs, suspended hiring, travel bans, delaying some of its planned capital expenditures, and deferring other discretionary spending for 2020. The Company will continue to reassess the reduction in work hours and furloughs as demand for products increases. The Company believes it will be able to generate sufficient liquidity to satisfy its obligations and remain in compliance with the Company's existing debt covenants for the next twelve months. Specifically, at June 30, 2020, the Company had $1,109.1 million of cash and has availability to a $700.0 million revolving credit facility as well as other credit facilities of approximately $400.0 million entered into during the three months ended June 30, 2020. For further details on these credit facilities see Note 11, Financing Arrangements. At June 30, 2020, the Company is in compliance with all of the debt covenants. The Company expects to remain in compliance with all covenants, which includes an operating income excluding depreciation and amortization to interest expense of not less than 3.0 times on a trailing twelve months basis. If recovery from the pandemic takes longer than currently estimated by the Company, the Company may need to seek covenant waivers in the future. The Company's failure to obtain debt covenant waivers could trigger a violation of these covenants and lead to default and acceleration of all of its outstanding debt, which could have a material adverse effect on liquidity. Revenue Recognition At June 30, 2020, the Company had $25.7 million of deferred revenue recorded in Accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company expects to recognize significantly all of the deferred revenue within the next 12 months. Accounts and Notes Receivable The Company records a provision for doubtful accounts, which is included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accounts and notes receivables – trade, net are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts and trade discounts, which were $37.4 million at June 30, 2020 and $29.4 million at December 31, 2019. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company has experienced delays in customer payments as a result of disruptions in operations of dental practices due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") i ssued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13 "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." This newly issued accounting standard changes the recognition and measurement of credit losses, including trade accounts receivable. Under current accounting standards, a loss is recognized when such loss becomes probable of occurring. The new standard broadens the information that an entity must consider when developing expected credit loss estimates. The Company adopted this accounting standard on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, disclosures or internal controls. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes." This newly issued accounting standard simplifies key provisions for accounting for income taxes, as part of the FASB's initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments eliminate certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The amendments also clarify and simplify other aspects of the accounting for income taxes. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and fiscal periods beginning after December 31, 2020. The Company adopted this accounting standard on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, disclosures or internal controls. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14 "Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." This newly issued accounting standard changes disclosure requirements for defined benefit plans, including removal and modification of existing disclosures. The amendments in this standard are required for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The amendments should be applied on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. The Company adopted this accounting standard on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact the Company's disclosures. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 828): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." This newly issued accounting standard provides guidance on whether the change in reference rate is a modification versus an extinguishment of a contract. Specifically, there is risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR"). The Company has certain variable interest rate debt that use LIBOR as a reference rate. The guidance provided by this accounting standard may be used for contracts entered into on or before December 31, 2022 on a prospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its financial position, results of operations, cash flows and disclosures.
