Remaining Performance Obligations

As of December 31, 2023, the Company's estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations associated with existing customer contracts that are partially or wholly unsatisfied is approximately $534.2 million. We expect to recognize approximately 41% of this revenue in 2024, approximately 45% throughout 2025 and 2026, with the balance recognized thereafter. These remaining performance obligations are not indicative of revenue for future periods.

Contract Balances

Total deferred revenue increased $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily the result of timing of cash receipts and revenue recognition. The majority of the Company's deferred revenue as of December 31, 2023 will be recognized over the course of the next twelve months.

The amount of revenue recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 that was included in the opening deferred revenue balance was $35.6 million and $33.1 million, respectively. The majority of this revenue consists of subscription-based services and professional services arrangements. The amount of revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material.

Deferred Sales Incentive Compensation

Deferred sales incentive compensation was $11.5 million and $11.0 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization expense for deferred sales incentive compensation was $4.8 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Deferred sales incentive compensation is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and amortization expense is included in employee compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations. No significant impairment loss for capitalized costs was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
