The Company reviews inventory periodically and reduces the carrying value of items considered to be slow moving or obsolete to their estimated net realizable value. The Company considers several factors in estimating the net realizable value, including shelf life of raw materials, demand for its enzyme products and historical write-offs.

Construction in progress assets relate primarily to equipment associated with the build out of the research, bioprocess development and automation laboratories acquired in anticipation of the Company's new building lease commencement in June 2012. Upon installation of the equipment, the assets will begin depreciating over their appropriate asset lives. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Laboratory equipment

     3-5 years   

Computer equipment

     3 years   

Furniture and fixtures

     5 years   

Machinery and equipment

     3-5 years   

Office equipment

     3 years   

Software

     3 years   

In conjunction with the signing of the Company's facility lease agreement in June 2011, an analysis of all tenant improvements to be completed on the new building was performed. In accordance with authoritative guidance, it was concluded that the tenant improvements being funded through tenant allowances are assets of the landlord and not the Company as all tenant improvements will remain with the building, are not specific to the Company and all construction is controlled by the landlord. As such, tenant improvements not paid directly by the Company or controlled by the Company, as well as the respective liabilities will not be recorded on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
