Note 12—Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which will require disclosure of additional detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses, including significant segment expenses regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), the title and position of the CODM, and how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. This ASU is effective for us in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within annual years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments in this ASU must be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods presented in the financial statements and early adoption is permitted. We expect this ASU to only impact our disclosures with no impacts to our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Note 13—Commitments, Contingent Liabilities, and Legal Proceedings
Commitments include $48.4 million of legally binding lease payments for the Morgantown, West Virginia center of excellence for medical supplies and logistics lease signed, but not yet commenced. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for disclosure of other material contractual obligations.
We are party to various legal claims that are ordinary and incidental to our business, including ones related to commercial disputes, employment, workers’ compensation, product liability, regulatory and other matters. We maintain insurance coverage for employment, product liability, workers’ compensation and other personal injury litigation matters, subject to policy limits, applicable deductibles and insurer solvency. We establish reserves from time to time based upon periodic assessment of the potential outcomes of pending matters.
Based on current knowledge and the advice of counsel, we believe that the accrual as of September 30, 2024 for currently pending matters considered probable of loss, which is not material, is sufficient. In addition, we believe that other currently pending matters are not reasonably possible to result in a material loss, as payment of the amounts claimed is remote, the claims are immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, or the claims are expected to be adequately covered by insurance, subject to policy limits, applicable deductibles, exclusions and insurer solvency.
On July 22, 2024, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire Rotech for $1.36 billion in cash. Given anticipated tax benefits of approximately $40 million from the transaction, the net purchase price is approximately $1.32 billion. Rotech is a national leader in providing home medical equipment in the US. The definitive agreement contains certain termination rights for the Company and Rotech. In the event that we terminate the contract, we will be required to pay Rotech a termination fee of $70.0 million. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart Scott Rodino Act, and is expected to close in the first half of 2025. We have fully committed financing in place and expect to use a combination of cash and incremental borrowings to fund the purchase price.
