Disaggregation of revenues
Newmark’s chief operating decision-maker, regardless of geographic location, evaluates the operating results, including revenues, of Newmark as total real estate (see Note 3 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for further discussion).

Contract balances
The timing of Newmark’s revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by its customers. Newmark records a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and Newmark has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, Newmark records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

Newmark’s deferred revenue primarily relates to customers paying in advance or billed in advance where the performance obligation has not yet been satisfied. Deferred revenue at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $2.2 million
and $2.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, Newmark recognized revenue of $1.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively, that was recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.
