(In thousands)
Contract assets:
Unbilled receivables$4,107 $5,969 
Contract liabilities:
Customer advances and unearned income$2,798 $2,200 
Reserve for audience deficiency15,228 22,383 
Unearned event income6,937 1,152 
Unbilled receivables consist of earned revenue that has not yet been billed. Contract assets are included in trade accounts receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Customer advances and unearned income represent advance payments by customers for future services under contract that are generally fulfilled in the near term. For advertising sold based on audience guarantees, audience deficiency typically results in an obligation to deliver additional advertising units to the customer, generally within one year of the campaign end date. To the extent that audience guarantees are not met, a reserve for audience deficiency is recorded until such a time that the audience guarantee has been satisfied. Unearned event income represents payments by customers for upcoming events. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
All of the customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2025 was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. For the reserve for audience deficiency as of January 1, 2025, approximately $11.5 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
The increase in unearned event income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is primarily related to the timing of the 2025 Fantastic Voyage annual cruise as defined in Note 7 - Related Party Transactions which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2025.
For customer advances and unearned income as of January 1, 2024, approximately $2.8 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the reserve for audience deficiency as of January 1, 2024, approximately $2.2 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For unearned event income as of January 1, 2024, approximately $4.9 million was recognized as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily driven by the 2024 Fantastic Voyage annual cruise.
