−Removed: Transaction price is typically based on the contracted rates less an estimate of claim denials and historical reimbursement experience by payor, which include current and future expectations regarding reimbursement rates and payor mix.
−Removed: Variable consideration includes but is not limited to rebates, chargebacks, consideration payable to customers such as specialty distributor and wholesaler fees, product returns allowance, prompt payment discounts, and various other promotional or incentive arrangements.
−Removed: Calculating certain of these items involves significant estimates and judgments based on sales or invoice data, contractual terms and historical utilization rates.
−Removed: We estimate provisions for rebates based on contractual arrangements, estimates of products sold subject to rebate, known events or trends and channel inventory data.
−Removed: Estimates associated with rebates on products sold through our distributors under pharmacy benefits are the most significant component of our variable consideration estimates and most at risk for changes between the recording of the accrual estimate and its ultimate settlement, an interval that can generally range up to one year.
−Removed: Due to this time lag, in any given period, our adjustments to actuals can incorporate changes of estimates related to prior periods.
−Removed: We review the adequacy of our estimates for transaction price adjustments and variable consideration at each reporting date.
−Removed: If the actual amounts of consideration that we receive differ from our estimates, we would adjust our estimates and that would affect reported revenue in the period that such variances become known.

−Removed: Share-Based Compensation
−Removed: Share-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and is recognized straight-line over the requisite service period of the individual grants, which typically equals the vesting period.
−Removed: We value time-based Restricted Stock Units or RSUs at the date of grant using the intrinsic value method.
−Removed: Certain RSUs granted to senior management vest based on the achievement of pre-established performance or market goals.
−Removed: We estimate the fair value of performance-based RSUs at the date of grant using the intrinsic value method and the probability that the specified performance criteria will be met.
−Removed: We update our assessment of the probability that the specified performance criteria will be achieved each quarter and adjust our estimate of the fair value of the performance-based RSUs if necessary.
−Removed: The Monte Carlo methodology that we use to estimate the fair value of market-based RSUs at the date of grant incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the market condition may not be satisfied.
−Removed: Provided that the requisite service is rendered, the total fair value of the market-based RSUs at the date of grant must be recognized as compensation expense even if the market condition is not achieved.
−Removed: However, the number of shares that ultimately vest can vary significantly with the performance of the specified market criteria.
−Removed: If any of the assumptions used change significantly, share-based compensation expense may differ materially from what we have recorded in the current period.
−Removed: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that is based on the extent and level of judgment used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities.
−Removed: In general, the authoritative guidance requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
−Removed: An asset or liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement of its fair value.
−Removed: The three levels of input defined by the authoritative guidance are as follows:
−Removed: Level 1—Uses unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
−Removed: Level 2—Uses inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, through correlation with market data.
−Removed: These include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities;
−Removed: quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;
−Removed: and inputs to valuation models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment because the inputs used in the model, such as interest rates and volatility, can be corroborated by readily observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
−Removed: Level 3—Uses unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the determination of fair value.
−Removed: Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar valuation techniques and significant judgment or estimation.
−Removed: We estimate the fair value of most of our cash equivalents using Level 1 inputs.
−Removed: We estimate the fair value of our marketable equity securities using Level 1 inputs and we estimate the fair value of our marketable debt securities using Level 2 inputs.
−Removed: We carry our other financial instruments, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, at cost, which approximates the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
−Removed: See Note 1 and Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report for more information about fair value measurements.
−Removed: Accounts Receivable, Net and Related Valuation Accounts
−Removed: We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.
−Removed: We evaluate the collectability of our accounts receivable based on a combination of factors.
−Removed: We regularly analyze customer accounts, review the length of time receivables are outstanding, review historical loss rates and assess current economic trends that may impact the level of credit losses in the future.
−Removed: Our allowance for doubtful accounts has generally been adequate to cover our actual credit losses.
−Removed: However, since we cannot reliably predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, we may need to increase our reserves if the financial conditions of our customers deteriorate.
Excess and Obsolete Inventory
−Removed: Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
−Removed: We record adjustments to inventory for potentially excess, obsolete, or scrapped goods in order to state inventory at net realizable value.
−Removed: Factors influencing these adjustments include inventories on hand and on order compared to estimated future usage and sales for existing and new products, as well as judgments regarding quality control testing data and assumptions about the likelihood of scrap and obsolescence.
−Removed: Historically, our inventory reserves have been adequate to cover our actual losses.
−Removed: However, if actual product life cycles, product quality or
−Removed: market conditions differ from our assumptions, additional inventory adjustments that would increase cost of goods sold could be required.
+Added: We assess the value of our inventory on a quarterly basis and write down those inventories based on quality control testing data, obsolescence, or in excess of our forecasted demand to the lower of their cost or net realizable value.
+Added: Our estimates of forecasted demand are based upon our analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to, expected product lifecycles, product development plans and historical usage by product.
+Added: If actual market conditions are less favorable than our forecasts, or actual demand from our customers is lower than our estimates, we may be required to record additional inventory write-downs.
+Added: If actual market conditions are more favorable than anticipated, inventory previously written down may be sold, resulting in lower cost of sales and higher income from operations than expected in that period.

Significant judgment is required to evaluate the need for a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.
−Removed: We review all available positive and negative evidence, including projections of pre-tax book income, earnings history, reliability of forecasting, and reversal of temporary differences.
A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings in applicable tax jurisdictions.
−Removed: Prior to 2020, due to our US operating losses and earnings volatility in previous years, which did not allow sustainable profitability, we had established and maintained a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

−Removed: We analyzed both positive and negative evidence, and as a result released our valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.
−Removed: We maintain the valuation allowance on our California research and development tax credits and certain foreign intangible assets, as it is more likely than not that those deferred tax assets will not be realized.
−Removed: We recognize and measure benefits for uncertain tax positions using a two-step approach.
−Removed: The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes.
−Removed: For tax positions that are more likely than not of being sustained upon audit, the second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement.
+Added: We maintain a valuation allowance on our California research and
+Added: development tax credits, foreign tax credits, and certain foreign intangible assets, as it is more likely than not that those deferred tax assets will not be realized.
+Added: We recognize and measure benefits for uncertain tax positions using a two-step approach as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report.
