Contract liabilities are primarily related to partial prepayments received from customers on long-term supply agreements towards future NSG product delivery. As new prepaid supply agreements are entered into and performance obligations are negotiated, this component of the contract liability balance will increase, and as customers purchase product and utilize their prepaid balances, the balance will decrease. The short-term portion of prepayments from supply agreements is reported on the consolidated condensed balance sheets within other accrued liabilities.
The following table shows the changes in contract liability balances relating to prepaid supply agreements during the first nine months of 2018:

Additions and adjustments in the first nine months of 2018 include a $1.0 billion reclassification from customer deposits previously included in other long-term liabilities. The long-term supply agreements represent $4.8 billion in future anticipated revenues with 2% expected to be recognized during the fourth quarter of the year and the remainder ratably over the next five years.
