Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 12. Commitments and Contingencies We are subject to contingencies, such as various claims, legal proceedings and investigations regarding product liability, intellectual property, commercial and other matters that arise in the normal course of business. On a quarterly and annual basis, we review relevant information with respect to loss contingencies and update our accruals, disclosures and estimates of reasonably possible losses or ranges of loss based on such reviews. We record liabilities for loss contingencies when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For matters where a loss is believed to be reasonably possible, but not probable, no accrual has been made. Legal defense costs expected to be incurred in connection with a loss contingency are accrued when probable and reasonably estimable. The recorded accrual balance for loss contingencies was $2.5 million and $2.6 mi llion as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and mostly relates to discontinued operations. Initiation of new legal proceedings or a change in the status of existing proceedings may result in a change in the estimated loss accrued. Subject to certain exceptions specified in the Separation Agreement, we assumed the liability for, and control of, all pending and threatened legal matters related to our business, including liabilities for any claims or legal proceedings related to products that had been part of our business, but were discontinued prior to the distribution, as well as assumed or retained liabilities, and will indemnify Zimmer Biomet for any liability arising out of or resulting from such assumed legal matters.
