Note 5 – Product Warranties

The Company provides an assurance-type warranty that its products will conform to agreed-upon technical and quality specifications. The warranty provides for repair or replacement of products that fail to meet specifications or become unusable during this period, which generally ranges from one to two years, depending on the product.

The Company maintains a warranty reserve for implanted pulse generators (“IPGs”) and leads and began recording a warranty liability in 2024 based on historical product replacement experience. A warranty liability is recorded at the time revenue is recognized for all periods presented and is separately presented as product warranty liability on the face of the balance sheets. The warranty reserve is estimated based on historical product replacement experience. The Company establishes product replacement rates separately for IPGs and leads using historical replacement data beginning with the first full period of commercial shipments. The replacement rate represents the average historical rate of product replacement and is applied to units sold during each reporting period to estimate expected warranty obligations.

In developing its replacement rate assumptions, the Company evaluates historical replacement patterns over the expected product life cycle. The warranty accrual is calculated quarterly. The Company evaluates and updates its replacement rate assumptions annually, or more frequently if actual experience or product performance trends indicate that revisions are necessary. A reconciliation of the changes in the product warranty liability is as follows (in thousands):
