Significant Accounting Policies Use of Estimates - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We have made our best estimates, as appropriate under GAAP, in the recognition of our assets and liabilities. These estimates have considered the impact the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Such estimates included, but were not limited to, variable consideration to our customers, our allowance for doubtful accounts for expected credit losses, the net realizable value of our inventory, the fair value of our goodwill and the recoverability of other long-lived assets.

In the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, we recognized losses of $30.0 million and $114.3 million, respectively, related to our investment in ZimVie.

Under the prior ASC 842 guidance, variable payments were excluded from the measurement of the initial net investment in the lease if the payments do not depend on an index or a rate. For sales-type or direct financing leases, this could result in the recognition of a day-one loss for leases with entire or partial variable payments.

ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. Early adoption of this ASU is permitted, and we may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our financial statements. There are no recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that are expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
