As a result of changes in contract transaction price related to performance obligations that were satisfied or partially satisfied prior to the end of the periods, we recognized revenue of $47.3 million and $43.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $165.6 million and $220.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The changes in contract transaction price for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were from items such as executed or estimated change orders, contract modifications and claims.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate claim recovery estimates included in contract asset and liability balances were $27.2 million and $46.6 million, respectively.
The components of the contract asset balances as of the respective dates were as follows:

Total contract assets$261,263 $328,353 
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no contract retention receivables individually exceeded 10% of total contract assets. The December 31, 2024 contract retention balance included $29.2 million from Brightline Trains Florida LLC, all of which was collected in the first quarter of 2025. The majority of the contract retention balance is expected to be collected within one year.
As work is performed, revenue is recognized and the corresponding contract liabilities are reduced. We recognized revenue of $28.5 million and $16.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $341.4
