The Company leases John Deere equipment and a limited amount of non-John Deere equipment to retail customers through sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases. Sales-type and direct financing leases are reported in financing leases on the consolidated balance sheet. Operating leases are reported in equipment on operating leases – net on the consolidated balance sheet.

Lease revenues earned by the Company were as follows (in millions of dollars):

	Three Months Ended

Operating lease revenues		223.1		246.6

Variable lease revenues reported above primarily relate to separately invoiced property taxes on leased equipment in certain markets, late fees, and excess use and damage fees. Excess use and damage fees of $.8 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended January 30, 2022 and January 31, 2021, respectively, were reported in other income on the statement of consolidated income.

The cost of equipment on operating leases by market was as follows (in millions of dollars):

	January 30		October 31		January 31
	2022		2021		2021
Agriculture and turf	$	4,903.2	$	5,053.4	$	5,023.7

Total operating lease residual values at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021 were $3,409.5 million, $3,547.6 million, and $3,706.8 million, respectively. Certain operating leases are subject to residual value guarantees. The total residual value guarantees were $319.9 million, $295.8 million, and $162.5 million at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in residual value guarantees is primarily due to guarantees provided by John Deere dealers, which generally provide a first-loss residual value guarantee on operating lease originations effective after January 2020.

The Company discusses with lessees and dealers options to purchase the equipment or extend the lease prior to operating lease maturity. Equipment returned to the Company upon termination of leases is remarketed by the Company. The matured operating lease inventory balances at January 30, 2022, October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021 were $18.8 million, $25.4 million, and $72.6 million, respectively. Matured operating lease inventory is reported in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
