Contract balances:

 

The following table provides information about trade receivables, unbilled receivables and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:

 

  

December 31, 2020

  

December 31, 2021

 
         

Trade receivables

 $14,765  $14,644 

Unbilled receivables (associated with licensing, NRE and related revenue)

  5,479   1,833 

Unbilled receivables (associated with royalties)

  10,980   10,972 

Deferred revenues (short-term contract liabilities)

  2,434   8,661 

 

The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual payment schedules; trade receivables are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional, and an invoice is issued to the customer. Unbilled receivables associated with licensing and other include amounts related to the Company’s contractual right to consideration for completed performance objectives not yet invoiced. Unbilled receivables associated with royalties are recorded as the Company recognizes revenues from royalties earned during the year, but not yet invoiced, either by actual sales data received from customers, or, when applicable, by the Company’s estimation. Contract liabilities (deferred revenue) include payments received in advance of performance under the contract, and are realized with the associated revenue recognized under the contract.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $2,385 that was included in deferred revenues (short-term contract liability) balance at January 1, 2021.

 

Practical expediency and exemptions:

 

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. The Company records these costs within sales and marketing expenses on the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss).

 

The Company does not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component if the expectation at contract inception is such that the period between payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer will be one year or less.
