Contract Balances The timing of the Company’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. The Company records a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. The Company’s deferred revenue primarily relates to retainer and milestone fees received from corporate finance and investment banking advisory engagements, asset management agreements, financial consulting engagements, and subscription services where the performance obligation has not yet been satisfied. The following table presents changes in deferred revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025: | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 | | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 | | Balance, beginning of period | $ | 49,907 | | | $ | 58,148 | | | Additions to deferred revenue during the period | 101,434 | | | 112,344 | | | Reductions to deferred revenue for revenue recognized during the period | (106,311) | | | (118,510) | | | Balance, end of period | $ | 45,030 | | | $ | 51,982 | |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 the Company recognized revenue of $27,970 and $30,605 that was recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period. The Company expects to recognize the deferred revenue of $45,030 as of September 30, 2026 as service and fee revenues when the performance obligation is met during the years ended December 31, 2026 (remaining three months), 2027, 2028, 2029 and 2030 in the amount of $17,174, $14,944, $6,342, $2,829, and $1,108, respectively.
