4. Link between Group performance and remuneration outcomes
The Altium Remuneration Framework is designed to align key employee remuneration to shareholder returns (in the form of capital appreciation and dividends). The table below shows the Group performance on key financial results and performance metrics over the last five years.
Altium’s remuneration strategy has evolved over the past seven years and we believe that it is linked intrinsically to the success of the Group. Strong payout results for STI and LTI have reflected the strong financial performance of the Group. In addition, STI and LTI hurdles have changed over time to better reflect what is most important for Group growth.
1 Normalised EPS and Profit for the year excludes deferred tax asset of US$77 million recognised on the transfer of core business assets to the USA.
2 The maximum STI payable based on the above performance hurdles is 100%, however based on achievement of individual personal goals, the overall achievement level may be modified up to 150% or down to 0%.

3. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Revenues and related costs on construction contracts are recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied over time in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, revenue and associated profit, will be recognized as the customer obtains control of the goods and services promised in the contract (i.e., performance obligations). The cost of uninstalled materials or equipment will generally be excluded from the Company’s recognition of profit, unless specifically produced or manufactured for a project, because such costs are not considered to be a measure of progress.
The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue by customer type from contracts with customers for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018:
Table:
 | Year Ended December 31, |

Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The aggregate changes in the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits were as follows (in millions):
As of July 27, 2019, $1.7 billion of the unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate if realized. During fiscal 2019, we recognized $30 million of net interest expense and $6 million of penalty expense. During fiscal 2018, we recognized $10 million of net interest expense and no net penalty expense. During fiscal 2017, we recognized $26 million of net interest expense and a $4 million reduction in penalties. Our total accrual for interest and penalties was $220 million, $180 million, and $186 million as of the end of fiscal 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax audit for returns covering tax years through fiscal 2010. We are no longer subject to foreign or state income tax audits for returns covering tax years through fiscal 1999 and fiscal 2008, respectively.
We regularly engage in discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. We believe it is reasonably possible that certain federal, foreign, and state tax matters may be concluded in the next 12 months. Specific positions that may be resolved include issues involving transfer pricing and various other matters. We estimate that the unrecognized tax benefits at July 27, 2019 could be reduced by $50 million in the next 12 months.

Customer Receivables and Contract Balances
The following table provides balances of customer receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:
(1) Gross customer receivables of $2.3 billion and $2.5 billion, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $94 million and $132 million, at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Contract liabilities are consideration we have received from our customers or billed in advance of providing goods or services promised in the future. We defer recognizing this consideration as revenue until we have satisfied the related performance obligation to the customer. Contract liabilities include recurring services billed one month in advance and installation and maintenance charges that are deferred and recognized over the actual or expected contract term, which typically ranges from one to five years depending on the service. Contract liabilities are included within deferred revenue in our consolidated balance sheet. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we recognized $630 million and $295 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in contract liabilities as of January 1, 2019 and January 1, 2018, respectively.

The defined benefit pension plan utilizes various investment securities. Generally, investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate risks, credit risk, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported.
The following table presents the Company’s target for the allocation of invested defined benefit pension plan assets at June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018:

Our net sales by offering category for APAC for 2019 and 2018, were as follows (dollars in thousands):
Net sales in APAC decreased 4% (increased 2% excluding the effects of fluctuating foreign currency rates), or $6.7 million, in 2019 compared to 2018. In APAC, increases in hardware and services net sales year over year were offset by a decrease in software net sales during 2019 compared to 2018. The changes were the result of the following:
• Continued expansion of hardware offerings in the APAC market resulted in higher net sales in this category.
• Continued trend toward higher sales of cloud solution offerings that are recorded on a net sales recognition basis in the services net sales category resulted in declines in the software net sales category.
• Higher volume of net sales of cloud solution offerings and software referral fees that are recorded on a net sales recognition basis positively impacted services net sales. Additionally, there were contributions from Insight delivered services from increased net sales of our digital innovation solutions offering.

The Company estimates the fair values of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant.For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which was used to estimate the grant date fair value per option, were as follows:
The risk-free interest rate is the United States Treasury rate for the day of the grant having a term equal to the life of the equity instrument. The volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s share price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate; the Company used its common stock volatility along with the average of historic volatilities of comparative companies. The dividend yield is zero as the Company has not made any dividend payment and has no plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company determines the expected term of its stock option awards by using the simplified method, which assumes each vesting tranche of the award has a term equal to average of the contractual term and the vesting period.
As of December 31, 2019, total compensation cost not yet recognized related to unvested stock options was approximately $0.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

entergy corporation and subsidiaries management's financial discussion and analysis net revenue 2004 compared to 2003 net revenue , which is entergy's measure of gross margin , consists of operating revenues net of : 1 ) fuel , fuel-related , and purchased power expenses and 2 ) other regulatory credits . following is an analysis of the change in net revenue comparing 2004 to 2003. .

Table:
 | ( in millions )
2003 net revenue | $ 4214.5
volume/weather | 68.3
summer capacity charges | 17.4
base rates | 10.6
deferred fuel cost revisions | -46.3 ( 46.3 )
price applied to unbilled sales | -19.3 ( 19.3 )
other | -1.2 ( 1.2 )
2004 net revenue | $ 4244.0
the volume/weather variance resulted primarily from increased usage , partially offset by the effect of milder weather on sales during 2004 compared to 2003 .
billed usage increased a total of 2261 gwh in the industrial and commercial sectors .
the summer capacity charges variance was due to the amortization in 2003 at entergy gulf states and entergy louisiana of deferred capacity charges for the summer of 2001 .
entergy gulf states' amortization began in june 2002 and ended in may 2003 .
entergy louisiana's amortization began in august 2002 and ended in july 2003 .
base rates increased net revenue due to a base rate increase at entergy new orleans that became effective in june 2003 .
the deferred fuel cost revisions variance resulted primarily from a revision in 2003 to an unbilled sales pricing estimate to more closely align the fuel component of that pricing with expected recoverable fuel costs at entergy louisiana .
deferred fuel cost revisions also decreased net revenue due to a revision in 2004 to the estimate of fuel costs filed for recovery at entergy arkansas in the march 2004 energy cost recovery rider .
the price applied to unbilled sales variance resulted from a decrease in fuel price in 2004 caused primarily by the effect of nuclear plant outages in 2003 on average fuel costs .
gross operating revenues and regulatory credits gross operating revenues include an increase in fuel cost recovery revenues of $ 475 million and $ 18 million in electric and gas sales , respectively , primarily due to higher fuel rates in 2004 resulting from increases in the market prices of purchased power and natural gas .
as such , this revenue increase is offset by increased fuel and purchased power expenses .
other regulatory credits increased primarily due to the following : 2022 cessation of the grand gulf accelerated recovery tariff that was suspended in july 2003 ; 2022 the amortization in 2003 of deferred capacity charges for summer 2001 power purchases at entergy gulf states and entergy louisiana ; 2022 the deferral in 2004 of $ 14.3 million of capacity charges related to generation resource planning as allowed by the lpsc ; 2022 the deferral in 2004 by entergy louisiana of $ 11.4 million related to the voluntary severance program , in accordance with a proposed stipulation entered into with the lpsc staff ; and .

Stock Compensation Expense
The following table shows total stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefits included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands):
As a result of our acquisition of Rofin on November 7, 2016, we made a payment of $15.3 million due to the cancellation of options held by employees of Rofin. The payment was allocated between total estimated merger consideration of $11.1 million and post-merger stock-based compensation expense of $4.2 million, recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, based on the portion of the total service period of the underlying options that have not been completed by the merger date.
During fiscal 2019, $4.8 million of stock-based compensation cost was capitalized as part of inventory for all stock plans, $4.8 million was amortized into cost of sales and $1.5 million remained in inventory at September 28, 2019. During fiscal 2018, $4.7 million of stock-based compensation cost was capitalized as part of inventory for all stock plans, $4.4 million was amortized into cost of sales and $1.5 million remained in inventory at September 29, 2018.
At fiscal 2019 year-end, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees under our stock plans but not yet recognized was approximately $33.1 million. We do not estimate forfeitures. This cost will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.5 years.

Effective Tax Rate
The items accounting for the difference between income taxes computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate and our effective rate were as follows:
The decrease from the federal statutory rate in fiscal year 2019 is primarily due to a $2.6 billion net income tax benefit related to intangible property transfers, and earnings taxed at lower rates in foreign jurisdictions resulting from producing and distributing our products and services through our foreign regional operations centers in Ireland, Singapore, and Puerto Rico. The increase from the federal statutory rate in fiscal year 2018 is primarily due to the net charge related to the enactment of the TCJA in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, offset in part by earnings taxed at lower rates in foreign jurisdictions. The decrease from the federal statutory rate in fiscal year 2017 is primarily due to earnings taxed at lower rates in foreign jurisdictions. Our foreign regional operating centers in Ireland, Singapore and Puerto Rico, which are taxed at rates lower than the U.S. rate, generated 82%, 87%, and 76% of our foreign income before tax in fiscal years 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Other reconciling items, net consists primarily of tax credits, GILTI, and U.S. state income taxes. In fiscal years 2019, 2018, and 2017, there were no individually significant other reconciling items.
The decrease in our effective tax rate for fiscal year 2019 compared to fiscal year 2018 was primarily due to the net charge related to the enactment of the TCJA in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, and a $2.6 billion net income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019 related to intangible property transfers. The increase in our effective tax rate for fiscal year 2018 compared to fiscal year 2017 was primarily due to the net charge related to the enactment of the TCJA and the realization of tax benefits attributable to previous Phone business losses in fiscal year 2017.
