Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The majority of our revenues are recognized over time as services are performed, with certain revenues being recognized at a point in time.

The following tables set forth our total net revenues for the periods shown disaggregated for our Chegg Services and Required Materials product lines (in thousands, except percentages):

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 we recognized $31.3 million and $32.6 million, respectively, of revenues that were included in our deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective reporting period. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized no operating lease income and $5.1 million of operating lease income, respectively, from print textbook rentals that we owned. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $6.2 million and $26.9 million, respectively, of operating lease income from print textbook rentals that we owned. The decreases in operating lease income are primarily due to the transition of our Required Materials product line. For further information, refer to Note 7, “Required Materials Transition.”
