Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate transaction price allocated to a promise to transfer a good or service that is fully or partially unsatisfied at the end of the period.  As of March 31, 2020, remaining performance obligations were approximately $1,852.1 million. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 54.2% of the remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months and the remaining performance obligations primarily within one to three years.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets) and deferred revenue, customer deposits and billings in excess of revenue recognized (contract liabilities) on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract assets—Most of the Company’s long-term contracts are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Billing often occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. Contract assets are generally classified as other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The balance of contract assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $40.7 million and $43.9 million, respectively.  The decrease in the contract asset balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily a result of the decline in revenue.

Contract liabilities—The Company often receives cash payments from customers in advance of the Company’s performance, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are classified as either current or long-term in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet based on the timing of when revenue recognition is expected.  As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the contract liabilities were $342.1 million and $312.5 million,  respectively. The increase in the contract liability balance during the three month period ended March 31, 2020 is primarily the result of a delay in installations due to the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy. Approximately $76.7 million of the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue during the three month period ended March 31, 2020.
