Calix, Inc.:
Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Calix, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Change in Accounting Principle
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for leases as of January 1, 2019 due to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB), Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a
39

critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Evaluation of net realizable value of inventory
As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has finished goods inventories with a carrying value of $52,234 thousand as of December 31, 2020. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adjusts the inventory carrying value for excess or obsolete inventory based on assumptions about future demand for products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycle, and whether pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds the estimated selling price.
We identified the evaluation of net realizable value of inventory for excess and obsolescence as a critical audit matter. Evaluation of the Company’s forecasted demand, including the Company’s determination of the effect of market and economic conditions and technology changes, required significant auditor judgment.
The following are primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s inventory process. This included controls over the forecasted demand and the Company’s determination of the effect of market and economic conditions and technology changes. For a sample of inventory, we reperformed the analysis provided by the Company to assess the accuracy of the net realizable value. We evaluated the Company’s forecasted demand for a selection of certain inventory by assessing historical sales trends and customer orders. We inquired of Company’s personnel and inspected documents regarding market and economic conditions and technology changes for a selection of certain inventory. We compared the Company’s forecasted demand to analyst reports.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Company
Calix, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Calix” or the “Company”) was incorporated in August 1999 and is a Delaware corporation. The Company is the leading global provider of cloud and software platforms, systems and services that focus on the access network, the portion of the network that governs available bandwidth and determines the range and quality of services that can be offered to subscribers. These cloud and software platforms enable communications service providers (“CSPs”) of all types and sizes to innovate and transform their businesses. The Company’s CSP customers are empowered to utilize real-time data and insights from Calix platforms to simplify their businesses and deliver experiences that excite their subscribers. These insights enable CSPs to grow their businesses through increased subscriber acquisition, loyalty and revenue, thereby increasing the value of their businesses and contributions to their communities.
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Guidance
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Any reference in these notes to applicable accounting guidance (“guidance”) is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict as coronavirus continues to spread around the world. The availability of vaccines has been limited, and there are no assurances as to when the pandemic will be contained. Since March 2020, the Company has instituted office closures, travel restrictions and a mandatory work-from-home policy for substantially all of its employees. The spread of COVID-19 has had a prolonged impact on the Company's supply chain operations due to restrictions, reduced capacity and limited availability from suppliers whom the Company relies on for sourcing components and materials and from third-party partners whom the Company relies on for manufacturing, warehousing and logistics services. Although demand for the Company's products has been strong in the short-term as subscribers seek more bandwidth and better Wi-Fi, customers’ purchasing decisions over the long-term may be impacted by the pandemic and its impact on the economy, which could in turn impact the Company's revenue and results of operations. Furthermore, the Company's supply chain continues to face constraints primarily due to challenges in sourcing components and materials for the Company's products, including due to plant closures. The prolonged impact of COVID-19 could exacerbate these constraints or cause further supply chain disruptions. As of the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may materially impact the Company's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations is uncertain.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. For the Company, these estimates include, but are not limited to: allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns, excess and obsolete inventory, allowances for obligations to its contract manufacturers, valuation of stock-based compensation, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets, standard and extended warranty costs and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives revenue from contracts with customers primarily from the following and categorizes its revenue as follows:
• Systems include revenue from the sale of access and premises systems, software platform licenses and cloud-based software subscriptions.
• Services include revenue from professional services, customer support, software- and cloud-based maintenance, extended warranty subscriptions, training and managed services.
Revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied, which occurs when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for
45
Table of Contents
those goods or services. Specifically, revenue from software platform licenses, which provides the customer with a right to use the software as it exists, is generally recognized upfront when made available to the customer. Revenue from cloud-based software subscriptions, customer support, maintenance, extended warranty subscriptions and managed services is generally recognized ratably over the contract term. Revenue from professional services and training is recognized as the services are delivered.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s hardware products contain both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the products’ essential functionality and therefore constitutes a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual software and non-software components is not separately identifiable and, therefore, not distinct. The Company’s contracts may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The Company generally determines stand-alone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers or its best estimate of stand-alone selling price. The Company’s estimate of stand-alone selling price is established considering multiple factors including, but not limited to, geographies, market conditions, competitive landscape, internal costs, gross margin objectives, characteristics of targeted customers and pricing practices. The determination of estimated stand-alone selling price is made through consultation with and formal approval by management, taking into consideration the go-to-market strategy.
For certain revenue arrangements involving delivery of both systems and professional services, each is considered a distinct performance obligation. Systems revenue is recognized at a point in time when management has determined that control over systems has transferred to the customer, which is generally when legal title has transferred to the customer. For the same revenue arrangements, management believes that the output of the associated professional services is transferred to the customer over time. As such, professional services revenue is recognized over the period in which the services are provided using a cost input measure. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the systems and services has been transferred to the customer, which may be earlier than system installation or customer acceptance, in accordance with the agreed-upon specifications in the contract.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of finished goods inventory purchased from the Company’s contract manufacturers, payroll and related expenses associated with managing the relationships with contract manufacturers, depreciation of manufacturing test equipment, warranty and retrofit costs, excess and obsolete inventory costs, shipping charges and amortization of certain intangible assets. It also includes contractor and other costs of services incurred directly related to the delivery of services to customers.
Warranty and Retrofit
The Company offers limited warranties for its hardware products for a period of one , three or five years, depending on the product type. The Company recognizes estimated costs related to warranty activities as a component of cost of revenue upon product shipment or upon identification of a specific product failure. Under certain circumstances, the Company also provides fixes on specifically identified performance failures for products that are outside of the standard warranty period and recognizes estimated costs related to retrofit activities as a component of cost of revenue upon identification of such product failures. The Company recognizes estimated warranty and retrofit costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. The estimates are based upon historical and projected product failure and claim rates, historical costs incurred in correcting product failures and information available related to any specifically identified product failures. Judgment is required in estimating costs associated with warranty and retrofit activities, and the Company's estimates are limited to information available to the Company at the time of such estimates. In some cases, such as when a specific product failure is first identified or a new product is introduced, the Company may initially have limited information and limited historical failure and claim rates upon which to base its estimates, and such estimates may require revision in future periods. The recorded amount is adjusted from time to time for specifically identified warranty and retrofit exposure. Actual warranty and retrofit expenses are charged against the Company’s estimated warranty and retrofit liability when incurred. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty and retrofit liability include the number of active installed units and historical and anticipated rates of warranty and retrofit claims and cost per claim.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options, performance stock options (“PSOs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and purchase rights under the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and the Amended and Restated 2017 Nonqualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “NQ ESPP”) is measured at the grant date based on the
46
Table of Contents
fair value of the award, and is recognized, net of forfeitures, as expense over the remaining requisite service period (generally the vesting period) on a straight-line basis.
The fair value of stock option and employee stock purchase right under the ESPP is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The fair value of RSUs and employee stock purchase right under the Nonqualified ESPP is based on closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
Stock-based compensation expense associated with PSOs with graded vesting features and which contain both a performance and a service condition is measured based on fair value of stock options estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, and is recognized, net of forfeitures, as expense over the requisite service period using the graded vesting attribution method.
Compensation expense is only recognized if the Company has determined that it is probable that the performance condition will be met. The Company reassesses the probability of vesting at each reporting period and adjusts compensation expense based on its probability assessment.
Loss Contingencies
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising from the normal course of business activities. The Company evaluates the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of legal proceedings to which it is a party and accrues a loss contingency when the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. Assessing legal contingencies involves significant judgment and estimates, and the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain and subject to numerous factors outside the Company’s control. Significant judgment is required when the Company assesses the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes, including the potential range of possible losses, and whether losses are probable and reasonably estimable.
Because of uncertainties related to these matters, the Company bases its estimates of whether a loss contingency is probable or reasonably possible, as well as the reasonable range of possible losses associated with each loss contingency, only on the information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, and at least quarterly, the Company reassesses the potential liability on each significant matter and may revise its estimates. These revisions could have a material impact on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition. The actual outcome of these legal proceedings may materially differ from the Company’s estimates of potential liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition.
Credit Risk and Inventory Supplier Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents consist of money market funds and marketable securities with a maturity at the date of purchase of ninety days or less, which are invested through financial institutions in the United States. Deposits in and investments held by these financial institutions may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company also has approximately $ 3.0 million of cash held by its foreign subsidiaries in Brazil, China and the United Kingdom. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to these cash and cash equivalents.
The Company depends primarily on a small number of outside contract manufacturers (“CMs”) and original design manufacturers (“ODMs”) for the bulk of its finished goods inventory. The Company generally purchases its products through purchase orders with its suppliers. While the Company seeks to maintain a sufficient supply of its products, the Company’s business and results of operations could be adversely affected by a stoppage or delay in receiving such products, the receipt of defective parts, an increase in price of such products or the Company’s inability to obtain lower prices from its CMs, ODMs and other suppliers in response to competitive pressures.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, line of credit and other accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their relatively short-term nature. Marketable securities are valued using quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
Cash equivalents and marketable securities are stated at amounts that approximate fair value based on quoted market prices.
The Company has invested its excess cash primarily in money market funds and highly liquid marketable securities such as U.S. treasury bonds, corporate debt instruments, commercial paper and U.S. government securities. The Company considers all investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Marketable securities represent highly liquid U.S. treasury bonds, corporate debt instruments, commercial paper and U.S. government securities with maturities

greater than 90 days at date of purchase. Marketable securities with maturities greater than one year are classified as current because management considers all marketable securities to be available for current operations.
The Company’s investments have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. Such investments are recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains and losses are reported as a separate component of comprehensive loss in the stockholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities, if any, are determined on the specific identification method and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to results of operations as “Other income (expense), net”. The Company had no investments as of December 31, 2019. See Note 2 “ Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Marketable Securities”.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for expected credit losses at contract inception resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company records a specific allowance and revises the expected loss based on an analysis of individual past-due balances. Additionally, based on historical write-offs and the Company’s collection experience, the Company records an additional allowance based on a percentage of outstanding receivables. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. These evaluations require judgment and are based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, payment history and a financial review of the customer. Actual collection losses may differ from management’s estimates, and such differences could be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Inventory Valuation
Inventory, which primarily consists of finished goods purchased from CMs or ODMs, is stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market value. Inbound shipping costs and U.S. tariffs are included in cost of inventory. In addition, the Company, from time to time, procures component inventory primarily as a result of manufacturing discontinuation of critical components by suppliers. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based on the Company’s estimate of demand for its products, potential obsolescence of technology, product life cycles and whether pricing trends or forecasts indicate that the carrying value of inventory exceeds its estimated selling price. These factors are impacted by market and economic conditions, technology changes and new product introductions and require significant estimates that may include elements that are uncertain. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand and may have a material effect on gross profit. If inventory is written down, a new cost basis is established that cannot be increased in future periods. Shipments from suppliers before the Company receives them are recorded as in-transit inventory when title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the Company.
Contract Costs
The Company capitalizes sales commissions primarily related to extended warranty for which the expected amortization period is greater than one year.
Capitalized commissions are amortized as sales and marketing expenses over the period that the related revenue is recognized, which can be up to five years for extended warranty. The Company classifies the unamortized portion of deferred commissions as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the expense. The current and noncurrent portions of deferred commissions are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. Generally, computer equipment is depreciated over two years ; purchased software is depreciated over three to five years ; test equipment is depreciated over three years ; furniture and fixtures are depreciated over seven years ; and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the respective lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Goodwill
Goodwill was recorded as a result of the Company’s acquisitions of Occam Networks, Inc. in February 2011 and Optical Solutions, Inc. in February 2006. The Company records goodwill when consideration paid in a business acquisition exceeds the fair value of the net tangible assets and the identified intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead is subject to an annual impairment test or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it may be impaired. The Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis as of the end of the second quarter of each fiscal year. Management has determined that it operates as a single reporting unit and, therefore, evaluates goodwill impairment at the enterprise level.
48
Table of Contents
At the end of the second quarter of 2020, the Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test. Based on its assessment of certain qualitative factors such as market capitalization, management concluded that the fair value of the Company was more likely than not greater than its carrying amount as of June 27, 2020. As such, it was not necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test at the time.
There have been no significant events or changes in circumstances subsequent to the 2020 annual impairment test that would more likely than not indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may have been impaired as of December 31, 2020. There were no impairment losses for goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 or 2018.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue results from transactions where the Company billed the customer for products or services and when cash payments are received or due prior to transferring control of the promised goods or services to the customer.
Payment terms to customers typically range from net 30 to net 90 days and vary by the size and location of customer and the products or services offered. The period between the transfer of control of the promised good or service to a customer and when payment is due is not significant.
Income Taxes
The Company evaluates its tax positions and estimates its current tax exposure along with assessing temporary differences that result from different book to tax treatment of items not currently deductible for tax purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, which are estimated based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws or loss or credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly, realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income against which these deductions, losses and credits can be utilized.
The Company must assess the likelihood that the Company’s deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, and to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not more likely than not, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. Management judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. Excluding foreign operations, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance at each balance sheet date presented because, based on the available evidence, the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will not be able to utilize all of its deferred tax assets in the future. The Company intends to maintain the full valuation allowance until sufficient evidence exists to support the reversal of the valuation allowance.
Newly Adopted Accounting Standards
The Company did not adopt any new accounting standard in 2020 that were significant to the Company.
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires recognition of an asset and liability for lease arrangements longer than twelve months. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 using the effective date approach which eliminates the need to restate amounts presented prior to that date. The Company also elected the package of practical expedients but not the hindsight practical expedient. The adoption had a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets but did not impact the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, Cash Flows or Stockholders' Equity. Upon adoption on January 1, 2019, the Company recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset of $ 15.8 million and a lease liability of $ 16.7 million.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
There have been no accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements that are significant or potentially significant to the Company.
2. Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Marketable Securities
The Company has invested its excess cash primarily in money market funds and highly liquid marketable securities such as corporate debt instruments, commercial paper and U.S. government securities. The Company considers all investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Marketable securities represent highly liquid corporate debt instruments, commercial paper and U.S. government securities with maturities greater than 90 days at date of purchase. Marketable securities with maturities greater than one year are classified as current because management considers all marketable securities to be available for current operations.

3. Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures its cash equivalents and marketable securities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Company utilizes the following three-tier value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value:
Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-driven valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the valuation derived from fair valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. The fair value hierarchy also requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining inputs and determining fair value.
The following tables sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Loss on Asset Retirement
In July 2018, in connection with establishing a direct relationship with Verizon Communications, Inc. (“Verizon”), the Company licensed software from a former partner to support the Company's deployments at Verizon. During the third quarter of 2019, Verizon informed the Company that it no longer required this software. As a result, the Company wrote off the software in the third quarter of 2019, resulting in a $ 2.5 million charge in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Intangible Asset Acquisition
In March 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a vendor to develop certain software product and related enhancements pursuant to which the Company may be obligated to make minimum revenue-share payments under the program of up to $ 15.8 million over the three years following availability for sale. The payments are based on a revenue-share rate applied to revenue from the developed-product and the corresponding hardware sales subject to a minimum and a maximum aggregate amount over the three-year sales period. The Company had its first sale in August 2019, and as a result, the Company capitalized an intangible asset with a value of $ 13.2 million in the third quarter of 2019 and also recognized a liability of $ 13.2 million (a non-cash investing activity). The liability balance is $ 13.9 million of which $ 2.9 million is included in accrued liabilities and $ 11.0 million in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020. The intangible asset has an estimated five-year useful life and is being amortized using the greater of the ratio of current gross revenue for the products to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenue for the products or the straight-line method. In December 2020, the Company amended the agreement to increase the revenue-share rate, limit the revenue-share payments to $ 15.8 million and extend the revenue-share period until March 2024.
Capitalized Cloud Implementation Costs
In January 2020, the Company went live with its cloud-based enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. As a result, the Company capitalized $ 7.5 million of implementation costs in both prepaid expenses and other current assets and other long-term assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. This amount is being amortized over a period of 29 months, representing the remaining contractual term. The amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $ 3.1 million.

Accrued Restructuring Charges
Responding to trends caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company initiated a restructuring plan in June 2020 to accelerate the Company’s all platform future and to align with a work-from-anywhere culture. The Company incurred restructuring charges of approximately $ 6.3 million, consisting of facilities-related charges and severance and other termination related benefits for the year ended December 31, 2020.
As part of its work-from-anywhere culture, many of the Company’s employees elected to work remotely on a permanent basis. In light of this shift, the Company evaluated its space needs and determined that a portion of the Company's leased office spaces in Richardson, Texas and San Jose, California would no longer be utilized. As a result, the right-of-use assets related to these leases were written down, resulting in a charge of $ 3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. In addition, the Company wrote off assets with net book value of $ 0.3 million and accrued common areas maintenance fees and property taxes related to the unused office space totaling $ 1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The following table summarizes the activities pursuant to the above restructuring plans (in thousands):

The Company initiated a restructuring plan in February 2018 to further align its business resources based on the production releases of its platform offerings. The Company incurred restructuring charges of approximately $ 5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, consisting primarily of severance and other termination related benefits.
5. Credit Agreements
Line of Credit
In January 2020, the Company terminated its loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and entered into a new loan and security agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA Loan Agreement”). The BofA Loan Agreement provides for a revolving facility up to a principal amount of $ 35.0 million, including a $ 10.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. The BofA Loan Agreement matures, and all outstanding amounts become due and payable, in January 2023. The BofA Loan Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including the Company’s intellectual property. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either LIBOR (customarily defined) plus an applicable margin between 1.5 % to 2.0 % or Prime Rate (customarily defined) plus an applicable margin between 0.5 % to 1.0 %, in each case largely based on a fixed charge coverage ratio measured at the end of each fiscal quarter. The interest rate on the line of credit was 3.75 % as of December 31, 2020.
The availability of borrowings under the BofA Loan Agreement is subject to certain conditions and requirements, including among others, if at any time the Company’s availability is less than $ 5.0 million, the Company must maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with these requirements, had no outstanding borrowings and had full availability to $ 35.0 million.
Financing Arrangements
During 2018, the Company entered into financing arrangements to purchase lab and test equipment for approximately $ 5.1 million, which were non-cash investing activities. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company paid $ 1.4 million to settle the remainder of the balance. The weighted average interest rate was 6.2 %.

In October 2020, the Company entered into a lease extension for its facility in Nanjing, China. The lease extension will commence in February 2021 for a term of 60 months. The future minimum lease payments of $ 1.7 million are included in the table for the year ended December 31, 2020 above. The Company recorded a right-of-use operating lease asset and operating lease liability of $ 1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company’s previous lease in Nanjing, China expires in February 2021.
The above tables also include future minimum lease payments for the Company's office facilities in Petaluma, California; Plymouth, Minnesota; Richardson, Texas; and West Jordan, Utah, which expire at various dates through 2025.
The weighted average discount rate for the Company's operating leases as of December 31, 2020 was 6.7 %. The weighted average remaining lease term as of December 31, 2020 was 4.2 years.
For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, total rent expense of the Company was $ 4.0 million, $ 4.7 million and $ 3.4 million, respectively. Cash paid within operating cash flows for operating leases was $ 3.8 million for year ended December 31, 2020.
Purchase Commitments
The Company’s CMs and ODMs place orders for certain component inventory in advance based upon the Company’s build forecasts in order to reduce manufacturing lead times and ensure adequate component supply. The components are used by the CMs and ODMs to build the products included in the build forecasts. The Company generally does not take ownership of the components held by CMs and ODMs. The Company places purchase orders with its CMs and ODMs in order to fulfill its monthly finished product inventory requirements. The Company incurs a liability when the CMs and ODMs convert the component inventory to a finished product and takes ownership of the finished goods inventory. In the event of termination of services with a manufacturing partner, the Company has purchased, and may be required to purchase in the future, certain of the remaining components inventory held by the CM or ODM as well as any outstanding orders pursuant to the contractual provisions with such CM or ODM. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $ 123.7 million of outstanding purchase commitments for inventories to be delivered by its suppliers, including CMs and ODMs, within one year.

Table of Contents
The Company has from time to time, and subject to certain conditions, reimbursed certain suppliers for component inventory purchases when this inventory has been rendered excess or obsolete, for example due to manufacturing and engineering change orders resulting from design changes, manufacturing discontinuation of products by its suppliers, or in cases where the Company has committed inventory levels that greatly exceed projected demand. The estimated excess and obsolete inventory liabilities related to such manufacturing and engineering change orders and other factors, which are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $ 4.0 million and $ 1.9 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company records the related charges in cost of systems revenue in its Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising from the normal course of business activities. The Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to the Company, in management’s opinion, are currently expected to individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition taken as a whole.
Indemnifications
The Company from time to time enters into contracts that require it to indemnify various parties against claims from third parties. These contracts primarily relate to (i) certain real estate leases, under which the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company’s use of the applicable premises, (ii) agreements with the Company’s officers, directors and certain employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their relationship with the Company, (iii) contracts under which the Company may be required to indemnify customers against third-party claims that a Company product infringes a patent, copyright or other intellectual property right and (iv) agreements under which the Company may be required to indemnify the counterparty for certain claims that may be brought against them arising from the Company’s acts or omissions with respect to the transactions contemplated by such agreements.
Because any potential obligation associated with these types of contractual provisions are not quantified or stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been required to make payments under these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
7. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock Offering
In August 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 3,220,000 shares of its common stock at $ 20.00 per share, including a full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase an additional 420,000 shares of Common Stock, resulting in net proceeds of $ 60.1 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses paid by the Company.
Treasury Stock Retirement
In August 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the retirement of the 5,329,817 shares of common stock held as treasury stock. Under Delaware law these shares return to the authorized but unissued common stock pool. As a result, the Company eliminated the $ 40.0 million treasury stock balance, offsetting this against common stock by $ 0.1 million and additional paid-in capital by $ 39.9 million.
Preferred Stock
The Board of Directors has the authority, without action by stockholders with the exception of stockholders who hold board positions, to designate and issue up to 5.0 million shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof. These rights, preferences and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, sinking fund terms and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of common stock. The issuance of the Company’s preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that such holders will receive dividend payments and payments upon liquidation. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company or other corporate action. Since the Company’s initial public offering, the Board of Directors has not designated any rights, preference or powers of any preferred stock and no shares of preferred stock have been issued.
Common Stock
Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds. No dividends have been declared or paid as of December 31, 2020. In the

event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of the Company’s common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of the Company’s debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Equity Incentive Plans
2019 Equity Incentive Award Plan
At the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders approved the 2019 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2019 Plan”). The 2019 Plan supersedes and replaces the 2010 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2010 Plan”) and preceding plans. No further awards will be granted under the 2010 Plan following the effectiveness of the 2019 Plan; however, the terms and conditions of the 2010 Plan will continue to govern any outstanding awards granted under the 2010 Plan.
Employees and consultants of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, as well as members of the Company's Board of Directors, are eligible to receive awards under the 2019 Plan. The 2019 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs or other stock or cash-based awards and dividend equivalents to eligible individuals.
The number of shares available for issuance under the 2019 Plan includes an initial reserve of 1.7 million shares of common stock, any shares of common stock that are available for issuance under the 2010 Plan as of the effective date of the 2019 Plan and any shares of common stock subject to issued and outstanding awards under the 2010 Plan that expire, are cancelled or otherwise terminate following the effective date of the 2019 Plan. At the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2019 Plan by 3.5 million shares. As of December 31, 2020, there were 4.3 million shares available for issuance under the 2019 Plan.
Stock options granted under the 2019 Plan are granted at a price not less than 100 % of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Stock options issued under the 2019 Plan generally vest 25 % on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and on a quarterly basis thereafter for a period of an additional three years . The options have a maximum term of ten years .
Each RSU granted under the 2019 Plan represents a right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustment for certain specified changes in the capital structure of the Company) upon the completion of a specific period of continued service.
In February 2019, PSOs exercisable for up to an aggregate of 2.0 million shares of common stock were granted to Company executives with a grant date fair value of $ 8.03 per share. These PSOs contain a one-year performance period and a subsequent three-year service period. The actual number of shares earned was contingent upon the achievement of both annual and quarterly corporate financial targets for revenue, non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP net income per share for 2019 (collectively, the “2019 Performance Targets”) during the one-year performance period. In August 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors amended the 2019 Performance Targets to provide for the award of up to 40 % of the total number of shares subject to a stock option award in the event the annual corporate financial targets are not met but the quarterly corporate financial targets are met. In February 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors certified that 30 % of the PSOs were earned, of which 25 % of the shares of common stock vested on that date and the remaining 75 % of the shares of common stock earned will vest in substantially equal quarterly installments over the subsequent 3 years, subject to the executive’s continuous service with the Company through the respective vesting dates.
In February 2020, PSOs exercisable for up to an aggregate of 0.8 million shares of common stock were granted to certain Company executives with a grant date fair value of $ 9.16 per share. The actual number of shares earned is contingent upon achievement of annual corporate financial targets for bookings and non-GAAP net income for 2020 (collectively, the “2020 Performance Targets”) during the one-year performance period. Under the 2020 Performance Targets, if non-GAAP net income is below 80 % of target and bookings are below 90 % of target, no shares are awarded. From this base, shares are awarded on a 50 % weighting for both non-GAAP net income and bookings up to 100 % for each 2020 Performance Target using a sliding scale. In February 2021, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors certified the full achievement of the 2020 Performance Targets subject to the four year services condition. As such, 25 % of the shares of the PSOs were vested on that date, and the remaining 75 % of the shares of common stock will vest substantially equal quarterly installments over the subsequent 36 months, subject to the executive’s continuous service with the Company through the respective vesting dates. Stock-based compensation expense of $ 1.6 million was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2020 related to these awards.

Employee Stock Purchase Plans
The Company maintains two employee stock purchase plans - the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and the Amended and Restated 2017 Nonqualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “NQ ESPP”).
The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15 % of their annual compensation subject to certain Internal Revenue Code limitations. In addition, no participant may purchase more than 2,000 shares of common stock in each offering period.
During 2020, the Company revised the ESPP’s two six-month offering periods to August 15 th through February 14 th and February 15 th through August 14 th of each year, with a transition period that began on May 15 th and ended on August 14, 2020. The price of common stock purchased under the ESPP is 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the commencement date and the end date of each six-month offering period. In May 2019, the stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares of common stock issuable under the ESPP by 2.5 million shares. The total shares authorized for issuance under the ESPP increased from 7.3 million shares to 9.8 million shares. As of December 31, 2020, there were 2.6 million shares available for issuance under the ESPP. During the year ended December 31, 2020, 0.6 million shares were purchased under the
57
Table of Contents
ESPP, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 0.4 million related to the ESPP is expected to be recognized over a remaining service period of 0.1 years.
The NQ ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions of up to 25 % of their annual compensation. Eligible employees have the right to (a) purchase the maximum number of whole shares of common stock that can be purchased with the elected payroll deductions during each offering period for which the employee is enrolled at a purchase price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last day of such offering period and (b) receive an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock that are subject to a risk of forfeiture in the event the employee terminates employment within the one year period immediately following the purchase date. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2020, the NQ ESPP’s two six-month offering periods changed to November 15 th through May 14 th and May 15 th through November 14 th of each year, with a transition period that began on June 21, 2020 and ended on November 14, 2020. In May 2020, the stockholders approved an amendment of certain terms and an increase in the number of shares of common stock issuable under the NQ ESPP by 1.2 million shares. The maximum number of shares of common stock currently authorized for issuance under the NQ ESPP is 4.7 million shares, with a maximum of 0.5 million shares allocated per purchase period. As of December 31, 2020, there were 2.3 million shares available for issuance under the NQ ESPP, including the stockholder-approved 1.2 million share increase. During the year ended December 31, 2020, 0.5 million shares were purchased and issued. As of December 31, 2020, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 5.2 million related to the NQ ESPP is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average service period of 1.1 years.
Stock-Based Compensation
During the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $ 14.0 million, $ 11.2 million and $ 17.5 million, respectively.

Stock options $ 8.55 $ 3.66 $ 3.41
RSUs $ 11.22 $ 6.62 $ 6.66
ESPP $ 5.52 $ 2.04 $ 2.21
Nonqualified ESPP $ 19.40 $ 7.24 $ 7.34
The Company values the RSUs and employee stock purchase rights under the Nonqualified ESPP at the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options and employee stock purchase right under the ESPP at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the use of the following assumptions:
(i) Expected volatility of the Company’s common stock – The Company computes its expected volatility assumption based on a blended volatility ( 50 % historical volatility and 50 % implied volatility from traded options on the Company’s common stock). The selection of a blended volatility assumption was based upon the Company’s assessment that a blended volatility is more representative of the Company’s future stock price trend as it weighs the historical volatility with the future implied volatility.
(ii) Expected life of the option award – Represents the weighted-average period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The Company’s computation of expected life utilizes the simplified method in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 due to the lack of sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The mid-point between the vesting date and the expiration date is used as the expected term under this method.

Table of Contents
(iii) Expected dividend yield – Assumption is based on the Company’s history of not paying dividends and no future expectations of dividend payouts.
(iv) Risk-free interest rate – Based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with maturities approximating the grant’s expected life.
The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions used in estimating the grant-date fair value of stock options and of each employee’s purchase right under the ESPP in the periods indicated:
Years Ended December 31,
Stock Options 2020 2019 2018
Expected volatility 53 % 47 % 50 %

Expected dividend yield — — —
Risk-free interest rate 0.12 % 2.03 % 2.21 %
In addition, the Company applies an estimated forfeiture rate to awards granted and records stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. Forfeiture rates are estimated at the time of grant based on the Company’s historical experience. Further, to the extent the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is different from management’s estimate, stock-based compensation is adjusted accordingly.
As of December 31, 2020, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense by award type, net of estimated forfeitures, and their expected weighted-average recognition periods are summarized in the following table (in thousands).

All deferred taxes, along with any related valuation allowance, are classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as long-term.
Management reviews the recognition of deferred tax assets to determine if realization of such assets is more likely than not. The realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the evaluation of historic losses, reversing temporary differences, and future earnings. As of December 31, 2020, the positive evidence includes 3 years of cumulative U.S. profitability. The negative evidence includes historic cumulative losses from 1999 through the third quarter of 2020, expiring attributes that are unavailable for utilization, uneven financial results from year to year, and uncertainly related to the COVID-19 pandemic which makes the evaluation of future earnings challenging. Using the more likely than not criteria specified in the applicable accounting guidance, this negative evidence cannot be overcome by positive evidence currently available to the Company. As a result, the Company has maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets with the exception of certain foreign deferred tax assets. The Company’s valuation allowance decreased by $ 16.5 million in 2020 and increased by $ 2.8 million in 2019.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had U.S. federal and state net operating losses of approximately $ 518.4 million and $ 110.6 million, respectively. The U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards have begun to expire and will continue to expire at various dates through 2040 if not utilized. The state net operating loss carryforwards have begun to expire and will continue to expire at various dates through 2040, if not utilized. Additionally, the Company has U.S. federal, California and other U.S. states research and development credits of approximately $ 37.3 million, $ 38.0 million and $ 3.1 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2020. The U.S. federal research and development credits will begin to expire in 2020 and the California research

and development credits have no expiration date. The credits related to other various U.S. states have begun to expire and will continue to expire at various dates through 2035.
In 2019, the Company reassessed its plan to continue to reinvest its foreign earnings overseas. The Company no longer asserts ASC 740-30 indefinite reinvestment of its historical non-U.S. earnings or future non-U.S. earnings. As such, for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a current and cumulative tax expense of $ 0.1 million and $ 0.6 million, respectively, for the estimated withholding, state income tax and foreign income tax associated with repatriating non-U.S. earnings back to the United States.
Uncertain Tax Positions
ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute to the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. The standard requires the Company to recognize the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not that such position will be sustained upon audit. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and income tax expense, respectively, in statements of comprehensive loss.
The following table reconciles the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits (in thousands):
Years Ended December 31,
2020 2019
Balance at beginning of year $ 22,264 $ 21,998
Addition (reduction) for tax positions related to prior year ( 163 ) ( 382 )
Additions for tax positions related to current year 1,415 648
Balance at end of year $ 23,516 $ 22,264
As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $ 23.5 million and $ 22.3 million, respectively, none of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. There were no accrued interest or penalties for uncertain income tax as of December 31, 2020.
The Company files tax returns in the United States and various state jurisdictions, the United Kingdom, China and Brazil. The tax years 2000 through 2020 remain open and subject to examination by the appropriate governmental agencies due to tax attribute carryforwards.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share $ 0.54 $ ( 0.32 ) $ ( 0.37 )
Potentially dilutive shares excluded, weighted-average 753 6,607 5,833
Unvested restricted stock awards are included in the calculation of basic weighted-average shares because such shares are participating securities; however, the impact was immaterial.
Potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share when their effect is antidilutive. These antidilutive shares were primarily from stock options and RSUs. For each of the periods presented where the Company reported a net loss, the effect of all potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive, and as a result diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per common share.

Contract Asset
The primary contract asset is revenue recognized on professional services contracts where the services are transferred to the customer over time, which has yet to be billed, and is classified within accounts receivable. Amounts are billed in accordance with the agreed-upon contractual terms. The balance at December 31, 2019 was $ 5.0 million of which $ 0.4 million remained in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020. The closing balance as of December 31, 2020 was $ 2.3 million of which the Company expects to bill 92 % of the balance during 2021. The decrease in the contract asset was driven by billings for past services as well as the timing and volume of professional services contracts.
Contract Liability
Deferred revenue consisted of the following (in thousands):
December 31,
2020 2019
Current:
Products and services $ 14,651 $ 12,480

Extended warranty 18,025 17,550
19,904 18,340
$ 39,093 $ 35,498
The increase in the deferred revenue balance for the year ended December 31, 2020 is primarily driven by cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company's performance obligations, offset by $ 15.8 million of revenue recognized that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the year.
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represent contract revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. This amount was
