Balance as of June 30, 2026$592 $4,955 $5,547 
The short-term portion of the balance above is included within other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025.
The cost associated with the estimated removal costs, and timing refinements due to ongoing network rationalization activities, is expected to accrete to a total liability of $10.1 million. The total estimated liability is based on the transmitter locations remaining after we have consolidated the number of networks we operate and assumes the underlying leases will continue to be renewed through that future date. Accretion expense is solely related to asset retirement obligations and was recorded based on the interest method.
Additional information regarding asset retirement costs and accretion expense can be found in Note 7, "Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements' Components."
