7. Credit Losses

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on the aging of the accounts receivable balances and other historical and forward-looking information on the financial condition of customers. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible.
The following table provides a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses deducted from accounts receivable that represent the net amount expected to be collected.
