4, we sold certain securities before the recovery of the amortized cost basis to fund the Apeiron Acquisition. Accordingly, we wrote down the amortized cost of $0.05 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. There was no credit loss recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2024.Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit LossesOur accounts receivable arise primarily from sales on credit to customers. We establish an allowance for credit losses to present the net amount of accounts receivable expected to be collected. The allowance is determined by using the loss-rate method, which requires an estimation of loss rates based upon historical loss experience adjusted for factors that are relevant to determining the expected collectability of accounts receivable. Some of these factors include macroeconomic conditions that correlate with historical loss experience, delinquency trends, aging behavior of receivables and credit and liquidity quality indicators for industry groups, customer classes or individual customers. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and concluded an increase of $0.3 million and a decrease of $0.2 million in the aggregate of general and specific allowance for credit losses, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we considered the current and expected future economic and market conditions and concluded an increase of $0.4 million and a decrease of $0.3 million in the aggregate of general and specific allowance for credit losses, respectively.InventoryInventory, which consists of finished goods (Captisol), is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We determine cost using the specific identification method. We analyze our inventory levels periodically and write down inventory to net realizable value if it has become obsolete, has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value or is in excess of expected requirements. There was no obsolete inventory charge recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. There was a $0.1 million and $0.2 million obsolete inventory charge recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. In addition to finished goods, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, inventory included prepayments of $2.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively, to our supplier for Captisol.
