Unbilled receivables consist of earned revenue that has not yet been billed. Contract assets are included in trade accounts receivable, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Customer advances and unearned income represent advance payments by customers for future services under contract that are generally fulfilled in the near term. For advertising sold based on audience guarantees, audience deficiency typically results in an obligation to deliver additional advertising units to the customer, generally within one year of the campaign end date. To the extent that audience guarantees are not met, a reserve for audience deficiency is recorded until such a time that the audience guarantee has been satisfied. Unearned event income represents payments by customers for upcoming events. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
For customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2025, approximately $1.8 million was recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
