Trade Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets
The allowance for estimated credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as the age of the receivable balances, historical experience, credit quality, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

| Research and Development Expenses |
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salaries, benefits, consulting, material costs, and depreciation. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company changed its financial statement presentation of research and development costs. These costs were previously included within Cost of Products Sold and were a factor in arriving at Gross Profit. Research and development expenses, which amounted to $11.1 million and $13.3 million for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024, respectively, have been reclassified from Cost of Products Sold to a separate line item below Gross Profit in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. All periods presented have been revised to reflect this presentation.

| Valuation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets |
Valuation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
The Company tests goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
Long-lived assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever adverse effects or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverability test consists of comparing the undiscounted projected cash flows with the carrying amount. Should the carrying amount exceed undiscounted projected cash flows, an impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying amount exceeds fair value.
