24. Leases

The Company as Lessee

The Company is party to operating leases with third parties with respect to various real estate and vehicle assets. Both real estate and vehicle leases typically include a lease (of the property or vehicle) and a non-lease (provision of services) component which are accounted for separately. Payment terms are typically fixed, however, certain leases may contain various provisions for increases in rental rates based either on changes in a specific price index (such as the published Consumer Price Index CPI), a predetermined escalation schedule or rate, or as a percentage of sales. Such variable lease payments are recognized as lease expense as they are incurred. We initially measure the present value of the lease payments using the index at the lease commencement date. Additional payments based on the future subsequent change in an index or rate, or payments based on a change in our portion of the operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance, are recorded when incurred as variable payments.

The lease term begins on the commencement date, which is the date the Company takes possession of the property. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease. These options to extend or terminate are assessed on a lease-by-lease basis, and the ROU assets and lease liabilities are adjusted when it is reasonably certain that the option to extend or terminate will be exercised. The lease term is used to determine lease classification as an operating or finance lease and is used to calculate straight-line expense for operating leases. The operating leases have remaining terms of 4 months to 12 years.

The Company as Lessor

Certain of our arrangements include leases for equipment installed at customer locations. As the lessor, we combine lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets in arrangements that involve operating leases. The single combined component is accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers based on the consideration that the non-lease components are the predominant items in the arrangements. If a component cannot be combined, the consideration is allocated between the lease component and the non-lease component based on relative standalone selling price. The lease component is accounted for under ASC 842, Leases and the non-lease component is accounted for under ASC 606.
