The timing of revenue recognition from the wireless segment results in contract assets and contract liabilities. Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. However, the Company sometimes receives advances or deposits from customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. Contract assets and contract liabilities are included in Unbilled revenue and Deferred revenue, respectively, in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. At
June 30, 2020
and
September 30, 2019,
contract assets were
$0.7
million and
$2.7
million, respectively, and contract liabilities were
$0.2
million and
$0.1
million, respectively. The Company recognized the entire
$0.1
million of contract revenue during the
nine
months ended
June 30, 2020
related to contract liabilities recorded in Deferred revenue at
September 30, 2019.
 
For the
three
months ended
June 30, 2020,
the Company recognized
$0.5
million of revenue in its Wireless segment associated with adjustments to constrained variable consideration from change orders related to several projects for which the costs had been recognized in prior quarters.
