The Company's contract assets represent arrangements in which an estimate of variable consideration has been included in the transaction price and thereby recognized as revenue that precedes the contractual due date. Under ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606"), revenue is recognized when all material conditions for completion have been met and it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period.
The Company recognized revenue of $6,340 and $16,689 on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $6,284 and $14,474 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, that was initially included in deferred revenue within Other Current Liabilities on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
Generally, performance obligations under client arrangements will be settled within one year; therefore, the Company has elected to apply the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14.
The allowance for credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:
For the Three Months Ended September 30, For the Nine Months Ended September 30,

Ending Balance$6,153 $5,154 $6,153 $5,154 
The change in the balance during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 is primarily related to an increase in the Company's reserve for credit losses and the write-off of aged receivables.
