Operating and Financing Leases — We determine whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception and calculate the lease liability and right-of-use asset using our incremental borrowing rate. We have operating lease agreements primarily related to cell sites, data centers, satellites and office buildings. Our cell site leases generally have terms of five to ten years, with renewal options for an additional five to 25 years. For certain cell sites, the renewal options are deemed to be reasonably certain to be exercised. Our data center leases have original terms between one to four years with unlimited one-year renewal options, some of which are reasonably certain to be exercised. Our building leases have original terms of ten years, with renewal options for an additional five years. We recognize operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of June 30, 2026, there were no significant leases which had not commenced.

The following is a summary of our lease expense included in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands):
