CONTRACT LIABILITIES

On occasion, we require customers to make advance payments prior to the shipment of goods in order to help finance our inventory investment on large orders or to keep customers’ credit limits at acceptable levels. Contract liabilities were as follows:

	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
NobelClad	$	2,291	$	1,427
DynaEnergetics	2,076		1,309
Total	$	4,367	$	2,736

We expect to recognize the revenue associated with contract liabilities over a time period no longer than one year. Of the $2,736 recorded as contract liabilities at December 31, 2019, $836 was recorded to net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
