As work is performed, revenue is recognized and the corresponding liability balance of billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts is reduced. During the years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $78.9 million, $52.5 million and $33.7 million, respectively, that was included in the billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts liability balance at September 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
At September 30, 2024, the Company had unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations under construction project contracts representing approximately $1.48 billion in aggregate transaction price. The Company expects to earn revenue as it satisfies the performance obligations under those contracts in the amount of approximately $1.18 billion during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025, and approximately $0.30 billion thereafter.
