 discount for payment within a specified period. Prompt pay discounts are estimated as a percentage of the price at which the Company sells product. The Company accounts for these discounts at the time of sale as a reduction to gross product sales and accounts receivable, net. Royalty, Licensing, Collaboration, and Other RevenuesRoyalty RevenuesRoyalty revenues include cash royalty amounts received from third parties pursuant to settlement agreements and agreements with collaboration partners for the right to use the Company's intellectual property as a functional license. These agreements may include sales-based royalties on the licensed intellectual property to which the royalties relate and milestone payments based on the level of sales (collectively, "sales-based royalties"). For arrangements that include sales-based royalties and the license is deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate, the Company recognizes revenue at the later of (i) when the related sales occur, or (ii) when the performance obligation to which some or all of the royalty has been allocated has been satisfied (or partially satisfied). If it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur, the Company will estimate the royalty revenues using the most likely amount method. Certain of the Company’s royalty revenues are recognized by the Company based on information supplied to the Company by its licensees and require estimates to be made. Sales-based royalties are recorded based on estimated net sales of the underlying product. Differences between actual royalty revenues and estimated royalty revenues are reconciled and adjusted for in the period in which they become known, which is generally within the following quarter. The difference between the Company’s actual and estimated royalty revenues has not been material to date.There are no guaranteed amounts owed to the Company related to any of these royalty revenue agreements.Licensing RevenuesThe Company's agreements with third parties generally involve the right to use the Company's intellectual property as a functional license. Certain agreements include an up-front license fee and ongoing milestone payments upon the achievement of specific events, and may also require minimum royalty payments based on in-country sales of products developed from the applicable intellectual property.In determining when to recognize the revenue under a collaboration agreement, the Company assesses whether the license is distinct, which depends upon whether the customer can benefit from the license and whether the license is separate from other performance obligations in the agreement. If the license is distinct, the Company must further assess whether the customer has a right to access or a right to use the license depending on whether the functionality of the license is expected to substantively change over time. If the license is not expected to substantively change, the revenue is recognized
