9 Months Ended

10. CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized from customer arrangements, including licensing, exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. Contract assets are generally classified as current. The Company classifies the noncurrent portion of contract assets under other assets in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of cost incurred and deferred revenue.

Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:

	September 25, 2021			December 26, 2020			$ Change			% Change
Contract assets —current	$	2,792,901		$	3,521,753		$	(728,852	)		(21	)%
Contract liabilities—current		(1,269,523	)		(1,493,847	)		224,324			(15	)%
Contract liabilities—noncurrent		(27,896	)	$	(5,069	)	$	(22,827	)		450	%
Net contract assets (liabilities)	$	1,495,482		$	2,022,837		$	(527,355	)		(26	)%

The $0.5 million decrease in the Company’s net contract assets at September 25, 2021 as compared to December 26, 2020 was primarily due to an increase in inventory and other costs associated with government contracts which recognize revenue over time, which was partially offset by a decrease in billings in excess of revenue earned.

In the three and nine months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $1.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively, related to our contract liabilities at December 26, 2020. In the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recognized revenue of less than $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, related to our contract liabilities at December 28, 2019.

The Company did not recognize impairment losses on our contract assets in the three and nine months ended September 25, 2021 or September 26, 2020.

Performance Obligations

The Company’s revenue recognition related to performance obligations that were satisfied at a point in time and over time were as follows:

	Three months ended			Three months ended			Nine months ended			Nine months ended
	September 25, 2021			September 26, 2020			September 25, 2021			September 26, 2020
Point in time		34	%		34	%		34	%		36	%
Over time		66	%		66	%		66	%		64	%

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts (e.g., indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (“IDIQ”)). As of September 25, 2021, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $20.6 million which the Company expects to recognize over the next 12 months. The remaining performance obligations represent amounts to be earned under government contracts, which are subject to cancellation.
