NOTE 10. DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

Deferred Revenue

Changes in our deferred revenue during the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

(In millions)	2024		2023
Beginning balance of the period	$	761.4	$	737.6

Billings net of revenue recognized from current year and other	356.4		316.7
Ending balance of the period	$	818.6	$	760.8

Remaining Performance Obligations

At the end of the first quarter of 2024, approximately $1.7 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for which goods or services have not been delivered, primarily subscription, software, and software maintenance, and to a lesser extent, hardware and professional services contracts. We expect to recognize $1.2 billion or 70% of our remaining performance obligations as revenue during the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
