DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Bel Fuse Inc. and subsidiaries ("Bel," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our") design, manufacture and market a broad array of products that power, protect and connect electronic circuits. These products are used around the world, primarily in the networking, telecommunications, computing, general industrial, high-speed data transmission, military, commercial aerospace, transportation and eMobility industries. Bel's portfolio of products also finds application in the automotive, medical, broadcasting and consumer electronics markets. We manage our operations by product group through our reportable operating segments, Power Solutions and Protection, Connectivity Solutions and Magnetic Solutions. All amounts included in the tables to these notes to consolidated financial statements, except per share amounts, are in thousands.

Concentration of Credit Risk ation of the customer's financial condition, without requiring collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. We control our exposure to credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures and establish allowances for anticipated losses.

Product Returns not not may may may Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets 1 2 3 Identifiable intangible assets consist primarily of patents, licenses, trademarks, trade names, customer lists and relationships, non-compete agreements and technology-based intangibles and other contractual agreements. We amortize finite-lived identifiable intangible assets over the shorter of their stated or statutory duration or their estimated useful lives, ranging from 1 to 16 years, on a straight-line basis to their estimated residual values and periodically review them for impairment. Total identifiable intangible assets comprise 8.6% a December 31, 2023 2022 We use the acquisition method of accounting for those business combinations in which we acquire 100% not fourth Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets December 31, 2023, no December 31, 2023. For indefinite-lived intangible assets, such as goodwill, trademarks and trade names, each year and whenever impairment indicators are present, we determine the fair value of the asset and record an impairment loss for the excess of book value over the fair value, if any. In addition, in all cases of an impairment review we re-evaluate whether continuing to characterize the asset as indefinite-lived is appropriate. See Note 5, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," for additional details. Depreciation fro m 1 to 33 years for buildings and leasehold improvements, and from 3 to 14 years for m achinery and equipment. Derivative Financial Instruments not The Company records all derivatives as assets or liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets at their fair values. Gains and losses from the changes in values of these derivatives are accounted for based on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company's interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts related to the Chinese renminbi (both further described in Note 13, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ) have been designated as cash flow hedges and as such, gains/losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until such time the hedged item affects earnings. The counterparties to our derivative financial instruments consist of several major international financial institutions. We regularly monitor the financial strength of these institutions. While the counterparties to these contracts expose us to the potential risk of credit-related losses in the event of a counterparty’s non-performance, the risk would be limited to the unrealized gains on such affected contracts. Income Taxes - We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | 4. REVENUE Nature of Goods and Services Our revenues are substantially derived from sales of our products. In our Power Solutions and Protection product group, we provide AC/DC and DC/DC power conversion devices and circuit protection products. Applications range from board-mount power to system-level architectures for servers, storage, networking, industrial and transportation. In our Connectivity Solutions product group, we provide connectors and cable assemblies to the aerospace, military/defense, commercial, rugged harsh environment and communication markets. This group also includes passive jacks, plugs and cable assemblies that provide connectivity in networking equipment, as well as modular plugs and cable assemblies used within the structured cabling system, known as premise wiring. In our Magnetic Solutions product group, we provide an extensive line of integrated connector modules (ICM), where an Ethernet magnetic solution is integrated into a connector package. Products within the Company's Magnetic Solutions group are primarily used in networking and industrial applications. The Company also provides incremental services to our customers in the form of training, technical support, special tooling, and other support as deemed necessary from time to time.

The counterparties to our derivative financial instruments consist of several major international financial institutions. We regularly monitor the financial strength of these institutions. While the counterparties to these contracts expose us to the potential risk of credit-related losses in the event of a counterparty’s non-performance, the risk would be limited to the unrealized gains on such affected contracts. |
