Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition and Related Costs | Revenue Recognition and Related Costs Contract Balances The timing of our recognition of revenue may differ from the timing of invoicing our customers. We record a trade receivable when we have transferred goods or services to a customer but have not yet received payment. Our trade receivables are reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Such allowance aggregated $33.2 million and $20.5 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. If we transfer goods or services to a customer but do not have an unconditional right to payment, we record a contract asset. Contract assets typically arise from the uniform recognition of introductory promotional discounts over the contract period and accrued revenue for handset sales. Our contract assets were $11.7 million and $9.4 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The current and long-term portions of our contract asset balances are included within other current assets and other assets, net, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We record deferred revenue when we receive payment prior to transferring goods or services to a customer. We primarily defer revenue for (i) installation and other upfront services and (ii) other services that are invoiced prior to when services are provided. Our deferred revenue balances were $257.9 million and $289.5 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The decrease in deferred revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is primarily due to the net effect of (a) the recognition of $262.7 million of revenue that was included in our deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2024 and (b) the impact of additions during the period. The long-term portions of our deferred revenue balances are included within other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unsatisfied Performance Obligations A significant portion of our revenue is derived from subscription service contracts with an initial duration of less than 12 months. As such, the amount of revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations is not necessarily indicative of future revenue to be recognized from our existing customers. Revenue from customers who are subject to contracts is generally recognized over the term of such contracts, which is typically 12 months for our residential service contracts, to three years for our mobile service contracts and to five years for our B2B service contracts. The average remaining contractual term for B2B non-subscription services is approximately three years.
