Revenue from Contract with Customer | Revenues The following table presents revenues by segment and major source:
The following table presents revenues by segment and primary geographical markets:
Revenues recognized in the current and prior-year periods from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous reporting periods primarily relate to revenues earned on content made available to distributors and licensees in previous reporting periods. For the quarter ended March 29, 2025, $0.6 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of December 28, 2024. For the six-months ended March 29, 2025, $0.6 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of September 28, 2024. For the quarter ended March 30, 2024, $0.3 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of December 30, 2023. For the six months ended March 30, 2024, $0.6 billion was recognized related to performance obligations satisfied as of September 30, 2023. As of March 29, 2025, revenue for unsatisfied performance obligations expected to be recognized in the future is $15 billion, primarily for IP to be made available in the future under existing agreements with merchandise and co-branding licensees and sponsors, DTC wholesalers, television station affiliates and sports sublicensees. Of this amount, we expect to recognize approximately $3 billion in the remainder of fiscal 2025, $5 billion in fiscal 2026, $3 billion in fiscal 2027 and $4 billion thereafter. These amounts include only fixed consideration or minimum guarantees and do not include amounts related to (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less or (ii) licenses of IP that are solely based on the sales of the licensee. When the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition is different from the timing of customer payments, the Company recognizes either a contract asset (customer payment is subsequent to revenue recognition and subject to the Company satisfying additional performance obligations) or deferred revenue (customer payment precedes the Company satisfying the performance obligations). Consideration due under contracts with payment in arrears is recognized as accounts receivable. Deferred revenues are recognized as (or when) the Company performs under the contract. The Company’s contract assets and activity for the current and prior-year periods were not material. Accounts receivable and deferred revenues from contracts with customers are as follows:
For the quarter and six months ended March 29, 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $1.0 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively, that was included in the September 28, 2024 deferred revenue balance. For the quarter and six months ended March 30, 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $0.9 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively, that was included in the September 30, 2023 deferred revenue balance. Amounts deferred generally relate to theme park admissions and vacation packages, DTC subscriptions and advances related to merchandise and TV/VOD licenses. We evaluate our allowance for credit losses and estimate collectability of current and non-current accounts receivable based on historical bad debt experience, our assessment of the financial condition of individual companies with which we do business, current market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. In times of economic turmoil, our estimates and judgments with respect to the collectability of our receivables are subject to greater uncertainty than in more stable periods. The Company has accounts receivable with original maturities greater than one year related to the sale of vacation club properties and film and television program rights (TV/VOD licensing). The balance of vacation club receivables recorded in other non-current assets was $0.7 billion at both March 29, 2025 and September 28, 2024. The balance of TV/VOD licensing receivables recorded in other non-current assets was $0.3 billion at both March 29, 2025 and September 28, 2024. The allowance for credit losses for vacation club and TV/VOD licensing receivables and related activity for the periods ended March 29, 2025 and September 28, 2024 were not material.
