__________________________________ (a) Includes income outside the scope of ASC 606 primarily related to contracts accounted for as leases of $18 million and $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $60 million and $6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The lease income increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from the operating lease obtained as part of the Midwest Pipeline Acquisition. Nature of Services We primarily provide two types of revenue services: firm service and interruptible service. Firm service revenue contracts provide for fixed revenue commitments regardless of actual volumes of natural gas that flow, which leads to more stable operating performance, revenues and cash flows and limits our exposure to natural gas price fluctuations. Firm service revenue contracts are typically long-term and structured using fixed demand charges or MVCs with fixed deficiency fee rates. Contracts structured using fixed demand charges contain a performance obligation of a stand-ready series of distinct services that are substantially the same with the same pattern of transfer to the customer, therefore revenue is recognized ratably over time. Contracts structured using MVCs with fixed deficiency fee rates require customers to transport or store a minimum volume of natural gas over a specified time period. If a customer fails to meet its MVCs for the specified time period, the contract consideration includes a fixed rate for the actual volumes gathered, transported or stored, and a deficiency fee for the shortfall between the MVCs and the actual volumes gathered, transported, or stored. If a customer exceeds its MVC for the specified time period, the contract consideration is based on fixed rates for the actual volumes gathered, transported, or stored. The contract consideration is allocated to each distinct monthly performance obligation, consistent with the allocation objective and based upon the level of effort required to satisfy the service obligation. Revenues are generally recognized over time based on the output measure of natural gas volumes gathered, transported, or stored, with the recognition of the deficiency fee revenue in the period when it is known the customer cannot make up the deficient volumes in the specified time period. Interruptible service revenue contracts typically contain fixed rates, with total consideration dependent on actual natural gas volumes that flow. Interruptible service revenues are recognized over time based on the output measure of natural gas volumes gathered, transported, or stored. Certain of our gathering contracts allow for the recovery of production-related operating expenses, which are offsetting in revenue and operating expense. Contract Liabilities The following is a summary of contract liability activity:
| 2025 |  |  |  |
| (millions)
Balance as of January 1 | $ | 153 |  |  |  |  |
Increases due to cash received or receivable, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during the period | 55 |  |  |  |  |
Revenue recognized that was included in the balance at the beginning of the period | (29) |  |  |  |  |
Balance as of September 30 | $ | 179 |  |  |  |  |
Contract liabilities generally represent amounts paid by or receivable from customers for which the associated performance obligation has not yet been satisfied. Contract liabilities associated with these services are recognized into revenue upon delivery of the service to the customer. The following table presents contract liability amounts as of September 30, 2025 that are expected to be recognized as revenue in future periods:
| (millions)
Remainder of 2025 | $ | 6 |
2026 | 22 |
2027 | 23 |
2028 | 21 |
2029 | 21 |
2030 and thereafter | 86 |
Total | $ | 179 |
Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations In accordance with optional exemptions available under ASC 606, we do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (1) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (2) with the exception of fixed consideration, contracts for which the amount of revenue recognized depends upon our invoices for actual volumes gathered, transported, or stored, and (3) contracts for which variable consideration relates entirely to an unsatisfied performance obligation. Such contracts consist of various types of performance obligations, including providing midstream services. Contracts with variable volumes and/or variable pricing, including those with pricing provisions tied to a consumer price or other index, have also been excluded as the related contract consideration is variable at the contract inception. Contract lengths vary from cancellable to multi-year. The following table presents revenue amounts related to fixed consideration associated with unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 30, 2025 that are expected to be recognized as revenue in future periods:
| (millions)
Remainder of 2025 | $ | 71 |
2026 | 265 |
2027 | 260 |
2028 | 210 |
2029 | 174 |
2030 and thereafter | 375 |
Total | $ | 1,355 |
Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract We recognize an asset from the costs incurred to obtain a revenue contract only if we expect to recover those costs. In addition, the costs to fulfill a revenue contract are capitalized if the costs are specifically identifiable to a revenue contract, would result in enhancing resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future, and are expected to be recovered. These capitalized costs are amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of transfer of the services to which such costs relate. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had capitalized costs to obtain or fulfill a contract of $17 million and $18 million, respectively, which are included in other current assets and other noncurrent assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized less than $1 million of amortization expense related to such capitalized costs.
