In accordance with the dpiX Holding operating agreement, net profits or losses are allocated to the members in accordance with their ownership interests.
    The investment in dpiX Holding is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. When the Company recognizes its share of net profits or losses of dpiX Holding, profits or losses in inventory purchased from dpiX are eliminated. During the three months ended December 31, 2021 and January 1, 2021, the Company recorded a loss on the equity investment in dpiX Holding of $0.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The loss on the equity investment in dpiX Holding is included in Other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In January 2022, the Company's fixed cost commitment was determined and approved by the dpiX board of directors to be $13.2 million for calendar year 2022.
    The Company has determined that dpiX Holding is a variable interest entity because at-risk equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Majority votes are required to direct the manufacturing activities, legal operations and other activities that most significantly affect dpiX’s economic performance. The Company does not have majority voting rights and no power to unilaterally direct the activities of dpiX Holding and therefore is not the primary beneficiary of dpiX Holding. The Company’s exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with dpiX Holding is limited to the carrying value of the Company’s investment of $44.6 million and fixed cost commitments.
