Note I — Leases

 

The Company’s lease portfolio consists primarily of operating leases for office space and has remaining terms from less than one year up to twelve years, with contractual terms expiring from 2026 to 2038. Lease contracts may include one or more renewal options that allow the Company to extend the lease term, typically from one year to five years per renewal option. The exercise of lease options is generally at the discretion of the Company. None of the Company’s leases contain residual value guarantees, substantial restrictions, or covenants.

During the fiscal fourth quarter ended May 31, 2024, the Company focused on cost optimization initiatives, including further reductions to the Company's geographic footprint. As part of this initiative the Company ceased the use of certain leased property and accelerated the amortization of certain ROU assets, resulting in an additional $9.7 million of expense. This expense is included in cost of service revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The related lease liabilities will be satisfied under the original terms of the lease arrangements, unless buy-outs can be negotiated.
