The Company invests in a variety of financial instruments and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution or commercial issuer. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material credit losses on its investments. </p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:12pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;visibility:hidden;"></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;">The Company maintains an allowance reserve for potentially uncollectible accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company evaluates its allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where specific invoices are deemed to be uncollectible, the Company provides a specific allowance for bad debt against the amount due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. The Company also provides allowances based on its write-off history. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $0.6 million and $0.3 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:12pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;visibility:hidden;"></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:12pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;">To further mitigate the Company’s exposure to uncollectable accounts, the Company may request certain customers provide a negotiable irrevocable letter of credit drawn on a reputable financial institution.

The Company, at its discretion, may monetize these letters of credit on a non-recourse basis after they become negotiable but before maturity. The fees associated with the monetization are included in “Selling, general, and administrative” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017.</span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:12pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;visibility:hidden;"></span></p>
