Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers | 4. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS Disaggregation of Revenue The Company disaggregates revenue based on the method of measuring satisfaction of the performance obligation either over time or at a point in time. Additionally, the Company disaggregates revenue based upon the end market where products and services are transferred to the customer. The Company’s principal operating segments and related revenue are discussed in Note 11, Segments. The following table shows disaggregated net sales satisfied overtime and at a point in time (excluding intercompany sales) for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Systems & Support Satisfied over time $ 114,683 $ 102,807 $ 233,664 $ 206,155 Satisfied at a point in time 132,582 147,286 270,804 278,234 Revenue from contracts with customers 247,265 250,093 504,468 484,389 Amortization of acquired contract liabilities 1,493 3,544 2,695 7,263 Total revenue 248,758 253,637 507,163 491,652 Aerospace Structures Satisfied over time $ 97,633 $ 204,180 $ 227,156 $ 447,819 Satisfied at a point in time 11,005 10,379 19,711 16,534 Revenue from contracts with customers 108,638 214,559 246,867 464,353 Amortization of acquired contract liabilities — 13,619 12 20,887 Total revenue 108,638 228,178 246,879 485,240 $ 357,396 $ 481,815 $ 754,042 $ 976,892 The following table shows disaggregated net sales by end market (excluding intercompany sales) for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Systems & Support Commercial aerospace $ 93,129 $ 95,393 $ 190,585 $ 187,573 Military 126,521 131,120 262,328 251,504 Business jets 10,521 8,708 22,878 19,082 Regional 5,315 7,112 10,588 12,987 Non-aviation 11,779 7,760 18,089 13,243 Revenue from contracts with customers 247,265 250,093 504,468 484,389 Amortization of acquired contract liabilities 1,493 3,544 2,695 7,263 Total revenue $ 248,758 $ 253,637 $ 507,163 $ 491,652 Aerospace Structures Commercial aerospace $ 99,868 $ 121,550 $ 212,529 $ 262,521 Military 1,210 35,438 14,913 73,694 Business jets 6,297 54,150 16,510 120,102 Regional 1,263 3,414 2,897 8,025 Non-aviation — 7 18 11 Revenue from contracts with customers 108,638 214,559 246,867 464,353 Amortization of acquired contract liabilities — 13,619 12 20,887 Total revenue 108,638 228,178 246,879 485,240 $ 357,396 $ 481,815 $ 754,042 $ 976,892 Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied or partially satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. This typically occurs when revenue is recognized over time but the Company's contractual right to bill the customer and receive payment is conditional upon the satisfaction of additional performance obligations in the contract, such as final delivery of the product. Contract assets are typically derecognized when billed in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Company pools contract assets that share underlying risk characteristics and records an allowance for expected credit losses based on a combination of prior experience, current economic conditions and management’s expectations of future economic conditions, and specific collectibility matters when they arise. Contract assets are presented net of this reserve on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, credit loss expense and write-offs related to contract assets were immaterial. Contract liabilities are recorded when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of the Company satisfying performance obligations under contractual arrangements, including those with performance obligations to be satisfied over a period of time. Contract liabilities other than those pertaining to forward loss reserves are derecognized when or as revenue is recognized. Contract modifications can also impact contract asset and liability balances. When contracts are modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements, the Company considers whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original good or service provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification to an existing contract on the transaction price and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct and at relative stand-alone selling price, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation and are recognized prospectively. Contract balances are classified as assets or liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The following table summarizes our contract assets and liabilities balances: September 30, 2021 March 31, Change Contract assets $ 158,425 $ 139,937 $ 18,488 Contract liabilities ( 214,729 ) ( 305,116 ) 90,387 Net contract liability $ ( 56,304 ) $ ( 165,179 ) $ 108,875 During the six months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized revenue due to changes in estimates associated with performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods of $ 6,375 . The change in contract assets is the result of revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed during the six months ended September 30, 2021. The change in contract liabilities is the result of revenue recognized in excess of the receipt of additional customer advances during the six months ended September 30, 2021. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $ 68,095 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. Noncurrent contract assets presented in other, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, were $ 8,017 and $ 5,299 , respectively. Noncurrent contract liabilities presented in other noncurrent liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, were $ 55,038 and $ 100,737 , respectively. Performance Obligations Customers generally contract with the Company for requirements in a segment relating to a specific program, and the Company’s performance obligations consist of a wide range of engineering design services and manufactured components, as well as spare parts and repairs for OEMs. A single contract may contain multiple performance obligations consisting of both recurring and nonrecurring elements. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has the following unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, performance obligations that are expected to be recognized in the future as noted in the table below.
