Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | 19. Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, both asserted and unasserted, that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such legal proceedings or, in certain instances, provide reasonable ranges of potential losses. The Company considers all claims on a quarterly basis and based on known facts assesses whether potential losses are considered reasonably possible, probable, and estimable. Based upon this assessment, the Company then evaluates disclosure requirements and whether to accrue for such claims in the consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2025 and as of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements, the Company believes that no new material provision for liability nor new disclosure is required related to any claims. In the event of unexpected subsequent developments and given the inherent unpredictability of these matters, there can be no assurance that the Company’s assessment of any claim will reflect the ultimate outcome, and an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations in particular quarterly or annual periods. Tariff Matter With the assistance of a third-party consultant, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company initiated a review of the value of transactions it used for intercompany imports into the United States from its GENEWIZ business. As a result of this review and an interpretation surrounding the valuation method used to calculate the estimated transaction value, the Company revised its estimate of the tariffs owed and paid $5.9 million to U.S. customs authorities in fiscal year 2022 related to transactions prior to December 2021. In July 2024, the Company paid approximately $2.5 million in tariffs as well as interest related to the imports from its GENEWIZ business into the United States during the period from December 2021 to July 2024. As of September 30, 2025, the Company does not anticipate any penalties associated with this payment because its valuation methodology was accepted by U.S. customs authorities during previous voluntary disclosures. The Company expects that the U.S. customs authorities will issue the final audit results for these periods by the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. Purchase Commitments At September 30, 2025, the Company had non-cancellable commitments of $38.2 million, comprised of purchase orders for inventory of $28.7 million, and other operating expense commitments of $9.5 million.
