Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory with a consumption period expected to exceed twelve months is recorded within other non-current assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have included $1.3 million and $1.9 million of raw materials inventory within non-current assets as of April 1, 2022 and September 24, 2021, respectively.
