Contract Assets (Unbilled Revenue) and Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)
Contract assets primarily consist of unbilled construction revenue where we are utilizing our costs incurred as the measure of progress of satisfying our performance obligation. Contract assets are reported within accounts receivable, net on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the contract price is invoiced, the related unbilled receivable is reclassified to trade accounts receivable, where the balance will be settled upon the collection of the invoiced amount. Contract liabilities are generally comprised of upfront fees charged to the customer for the cost of establishing the necessary components of the Company’s network prior to the commencement of use by the customer. Fees charged to customers for the recurring use of the Company’s network are recognized during the related periods of service. Upfront fees that are billed in advance of providing services are deferred until such time the customer accepts the Company’s network and then are recognized as service revenues ratably over a period in which substantive services required under the revenue arrangement are expected to be performed, which is the initial term of the arrangement. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized revenues of $2.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, which was included in the December 31, 2021 contract liabilities balance.
The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities accounted for under ASC 606.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
Performance obligations within contracts to stand ready to provide services are typically satisfied over time or as those services are provided. Contract liabilities primarily relate to deferred revenue from upfront customer payments. The deferred revenue is recognized, and the liability reduced, over the contract term as the Company completes the performance obligation. As of September 30, 2022, our future revenues (i.e., transaction price related to remaining performance obligations) under contract accounted for under ASC 606 totaled $564.2 million, of which $464.1 million is related to contracts that are currently being invoiced and have an average remaining contract term of 2.4 years, while $100.1 million represents our backlog for sales bookings which have yet to be installed and have an average contract term of 6.0 years. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less.
