COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
a. Purchase Commitments
 
As of
March 31, 2020,
we have made commitments to purchase approximately
$1,253

b. Product Warranties
 
We estimate future warranty costs to be incurred for product failure rates, material usage and service costs in the development of our warranty obligations. Estimated future costs are based on actual past experience and are generally estimated as a percentage of sales over the warranty period. Changes in our product warranty liability during the
first
three
months of
2020
and

c. Contingencies and Legal Matters
 
We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise from time to time in the normal course of business.  We believe that the final disposition of any such matters will
not
have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  However, recognizing that legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, there exists the possibility that ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We are
not
aware of any such situations that are reasonably possible at this time.
