6. Balance Sheet Information

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts with standard net terms that range between 30 and 90 days.  The Company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and collateral is generally not required.  The Company records allowances for credit losses and credit allowances that reduce the value of accounts receivable to fair value.

 

The allowances for accounts receivable consisted of the following:

Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13.  This ASU replaces the incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss impairment model for financial instruments, including accounts receivable.  The amendment requires entities to consider forward-looking information to estimate expected credit losses.  The Company did not record an adjustment upon adoption of ASU 2016-13.  

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through the sale of products. The Company’s expected loss methodology for accounts receivable is developed using historical collection experience, current and future economic market conditions, and a review of the current status of customers’ trade accounts receivable. Due to the short-term nature of accounts receivable, the estimate of amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the account receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company’s monitoring activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution, payment confirmation, consideration of customers' financial condition and macroeconomic conditions. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible. The Company considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and determined that the estimate of credit losses was not significantly impacted.  However, the Company has adjusted terms for a few of its customers and it may experience delays with collections due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company’s allowance for credit losses was $0.1 million at September 30, 2020 and at December 31, 2019.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company received $0.2 million pursuant to a settlement for a customer accounts receivable balance that was written off in 2018.

The following table summarizes the allowance for credit losses activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include material, labor and overhead costs using the first-in, first-out method of costing.  Inventories as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were composed of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods.  The Company had consigned inventory with customers of $0.2 million and $0.3 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.  The Company records allowances to reduce the value of inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value, including allowances for excess and obsolete inventory.  Reserves for excess inventory are calculated based on an estimate of inventory in excess of normal and planned usage.  Obsolete reserves are based on the identification of inventory where the carrying value is above net realizable value.  The allowance for inventory losses was $3.8 million and $3.4 million at September 30, 2020 and at December 31, 2019, respectively.
