Explanation:
If you want online references, see the ones below -- sorry, but I didn't think to add them before.

The second one is particularly good, as it gives this explanation:
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are not recognised as liabilities or assets. However, a contingent liability should be disclosed if the possibility of an outflow of economic benefit to settle the obligation is more than remote. A contingent asset should be disclosed if an inflow of economic benefit is probable
