Revenue Recognition

4.Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue from the sale of bioprocessing products, equipment devices and related consumables used with these equipment devices to customers in the life science and biopharmaceutical industries. Under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” revenue is recognized when, or as, obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs when control of the promised products or services is transferred to customers.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
	(Amounts in thousands)
Product revenue	$	200,708	$	178,177	$	614,668	$	483,834
Royalty and other income		33		39		106		179
Total revenue	$	200,741	$	178,216	$	614,774	$	484,013

When disaggregating revenue, the Company considered all of the economic factors that may affect its revenues. Because substantially all of its revenues are from bioprocessing customers, there are no differences in the nature, timing and uncertainty of the Company’s revenues and cash flows from any of its product lines. However, given that the Company’s revenues are generated in different geographic regions, regulatory, economic and geopolitical factors within those regions could impact the nature, timing and uncertainty of the Company’s revenues and cash flows. In addition, a significant portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from a small number of customers; therefore, economic factors specific to these customers could impact the nature, timing and uncertainty of the Company’s revenues and cash flows.

Disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers by geographic region and revenue from significant customers can be found in Note 14, “Segment Reporting,” included in this report.

Contract Balances from Contracts with Customers

The following table provides information about receivables and deferred revenue from contracts with customers as of September 30, 2022 (amounts in thousands):

	September 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021
Balances from contracts with customers only:
Accounts receivable	$	117,645	$	117,420
Deferred revenue (included in accrued liabilities in    the consolidated balance sheets)	$	19,465	$	14,848
Revenue recognized during periods presented relating to:
The beginning deferred revenue balance	$	12,989	$	13,708

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in the accounts receivable and deferred revenue balances on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

A contract asset is created when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good to the customer. Contract assets may represent conditional or unconditional rights to consideration. The right is conditional and recorded as a contract asset if the Company must first satisfy another performance obligation in the contract before it is entitled to payment from the customer. Contract assets are transferred to billed receivables once the right becomes unconditional. If the Company has the unconditional right to receive consideration from the customer, the contract asset is accounted for as a billed receivable and presented separately from other contract assets. A right is unconditional if nothing other than the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due.

When consideration is received, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a contract, a contract liability is recorded. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue after control of the products or services is transferred to the customer and all revenue recognition criteria have been met.
