4. Accounts receivable, net

Our accounts receivable arise primarily from products sold and services provided in North America, Europe and Asia. The balance in accounts receivable represents the amount due from our domestic and foreign original equipment manufacturers, or OEM, customers, distributors and end users. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon specific customer collection issues that have been identified. We accrue reserves against trade receivables for estimated losses that may result from a customer’s inability to pay. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are charged or written off against the reserve. To date, our historical bad debts charged against the reserve have been minimal.

Our top ten customers combined accounted for approximately 54% and 61% of our total net revenue for each of the three months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and 53% and 63% of our total net revenue for the nine months ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Set forth in the table below are customers that individually accounted for 10% or more of our net revenue.
