 the period between the transfer of the goods or services and collection to be less than one year.No contract assets or liabilities were recorded as of September 30, 2025, or December 31, 2024.Revenue from Product SalesThe Company's customers are primarily pharmaceutical wholesalers, specialty pharmacies, and pharmaceutical distributors. Customers purchase product to fulfill orders from retail pharmacy chains and independent pharmacies of varying size and purchasing power. The Company recognizes gross product sales when its customers take control of its products, including title and ownership. Customer orders are generally fulfilled within a few days of order receipt, resulting in minimal order backlog.The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to ultimately receive in exchange for those goods. Product sales are recorded net of various forms of variable consideration, including: provision for estimated rebates; provision for estimated future product returns; and an estimated provision for discounts. These are collectively considered "sales deductions." Sales deductions are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales.

The Company includes these estimated amounts inthe transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur.Variability in the net transaction price for the Company's products arises primarily from the aforementioned sales deductions. Significant judgment is required in estimating certain sales deductions. In making these estimates, the Company considers: historical experience; product price increases; current contractual arrangements under applicable payor programs; unbilled claims; processing time lags for claims; inventory levels in the wholesale, specialty pharmacy, and retail distribution channel; and product life cycle. The Company adjusts its estimates of revenue either when the most likely amount of consideration it expects to receive changes, or when the consideration becomes fixed. If actual results in the future vary from its estimates, the Company adjusts its estimates in the period identified. These adjustments could materially affect net product sales and earnings in the period in which the adjustment(s) is recorded.Sales DeductionsThe Company records product sales net of rebates, returns and discounts. •Rebates - Rebates are discounts which the Company pays under either public sector or private sector health care programs. Rebates paid under public sector programs are generally mandated under law, whereas private sector rebates are generally contractually negotiated by the Company with managed care providers.
