1Includes realized and unrealized gains and losses from our hedging program which for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were a net $22 million loss (2023 - $55 million loss).
2Includes revenues from lease contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 of $140 million and $144 million, respectively.

We disaggregate revenues into categories which represent our principal performance obligations within each business segment. These revenue categories represent the most significant revenue streams in each segment and consequently are considered to be the most relevant revenue information for management to consider in evaluating performance.

Contract receivables represent the amount of receivables derived from contracts with customers.

Contract assets represent the amount of revenues which has been recognized in advance of payments received for performance obligations we have fulfilled (or have partially fulfilled) and prior to the point in time at which our right to payment is unconditional. Amounts included in contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable when our right to receive the consideration becomes unconditional.

Contract liabilities represent payments received for performance obligations which have not been fulfilled. Contract liabilities primarily relate to make-up rights and deferred revenues. Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was $151 million. Increases in contract liabilities from cash received, net of amounts recognized as revenues, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $117 million.

Performance Obligations
There were no material revenues recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2024 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods.

Revenues to be Recognized from Unfulfilled Performance Obligations
Total revenues from performance obligations expected to be fulfilled in future periods is $60.5 billion, of which $6.2 billion and $7.9 billion are expected to be recognized during the remaining nine months ending December 31, 2024 and the year ending December 31, 2025, respectively.

The revenues excluded from the amounts above based on optional exemptions available under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, as explained below, represent a significant portion of our overall revenues and revenues from contracts with customers. Certain revenues such as flow-through operating costs charged to shippers are recognized at the amount for which we have the right to invoice our customers and are excluded from the amounts for revenues to be recognized in the future from unfulfilled performance obligations above. Variable consideration is excluded from the amounts above due to the uncertainty of the associated consideration, which is generally resolved when actual volumes and prices are determined. For example, we consider interruptible transportation service revenues to be variable revenues since volumes cannot be estimated. Additionally, the effect of escalation on certain tolls which are contractually escalated for inflation has not been reflected in the amounts above as it is not possible to reliably estimate future inflation rates. Revenues for periods extending beyond the current rate settlement term for regulated contracts where the tolls are periodically reset by the regulator are excluded from the amounts above since future tolls remain unknown. Finally, revenues from contracts with customers which have an original expected duration of one year or less are excluded from the amounts above.
