These advanced customer payments are presented as deferred revenue, a contract liability, in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses.” The deferred revenue received, but not recognized in revenue was $1,923 and $1,697 at October 27, 2024 and October 29, 2023, respectively. The contract liability is reduced as the revenue is recognized. Revenue recognized from deferred revenue that was recorded as a contract liability at the beginning of the fiscal year was $553 in 2024, $547 in 2023, and $609 in 2022.

As permitted, we elected only to disclose remaining performance obligations with an original contract duration greater than one year.
