Credit Loss [Abstract]

CREDIT LOSSES

CREDIT LOSSES

We are exposed to credit losses primarily through our sales of products and services to our customers. We maintain allowances for credit losses for potentially uncollectible receivables. Additional allowances may be required if either the financial condition of our customers was to deteriorate, or a strengthening U.S. dollar impacts the ability of foreign customers to make payments to us for their U.S. dollar-denominated purchases. We monitor our ongoing credit exposure through active review of counterparty balances against contract terms and due dates. Our activities include timely account reconciliations, dispute resolution, and payment confirmations. We may employ collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue recovery of defaulted receivables. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when we believe it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. We do not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to our customers.

Accounts Receivable

We base our estimates on a detailed analysis of specific customer situations and a percentage of our accounts receivable by aging category. Additionally, our estimates are developed based on historical credit loss experience, estimates of recoveries, current economic conditions, and future expectations.

The allowance for credit losses associated with accounts receivable was $12.6 million and $9.5 million as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The amount of accounts receivable reflected on the balance sheet is net of this allowance. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 85% of our accounts receivable had not yet reached the invoice due date and approximately 15% was considered past due. As of December 31, 2023, approximately 83% of our accounts receivable had not yet reached the invoice due date and approximately 17% was considered past due. Write-offs and recoveries related to credit losses during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 were not material.

Contract Assets and Lease Receivables

The allowance for credit losses associated with contract assets and lease receivables was $6.8 million and $6.4 million as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The assets reflected on the balance sheet are net of these allowances. Historically, we have experienced low credit loss rates on our customer commitment programs and lease receivables. We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
