Grant income3,427 1,119 4,377 
Total revenue11,768 9,807 20,748 
All amounts recorded in contract revenue were generated in the United States.
Primarily all of the Company’s contracts as of December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were determined to have a single performance obligation which consists of a combined deliverable of license to intellectual property and research and development services.
Therefore, for such contracts, revenue is recognized over time based on the inputs method which is a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods and services. Progress is measured based on costs incurred to date as compared to total projected costs. Payments for such contracts are primarily made up front at the inception of the contract (or upon achieving a milestone event) and to a much lesser extent payments are made periodically over the contract term.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received a $2.0 million milestone payment from Karuna Therapeutics, Inc. following initiation of its KarXT Phase 3 clinical study pursuant to the Exclusive Patent License Agreement between PureTech and Karuna. This milestone was recognized as revenue during the year ended December 31, 2020

An estimation uncertainty arises due to management’s application of the inputs method in recognizing revenue overtime. In doing so, the total cost to satisfy the performance obligation includes a significant estimate by management in its budgets and projected cash flows. The sensitivity of this calculation for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 is detailed below:
