Leases

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2020

We have operating leases for our corporate offices, data centers and certain equipment utilized at those properties. We are obligated under a number of noncancelable operating leases for premises and equipment that expire at various dates, through 2030, and in most instances, include options to renew or extend at market rates and terms. Such leases may provide for periodic adjustments of rent during the term of the lease based on changes in various economic indicators.

At the inception of the lease, the lease is evaluated to determine whether the lease will be accounted for as an operating or a finance lease. There were no significant assumptions or judgments required upon applying the new lease standard. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are included in our consolidated balance sheets. We have no leases that meet the definition of a finance lease under ASC 842 and our lessor accounting treatment for subleases is not material.

Total recorded balances for the lease assets and liabilities are as follows:



(Dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Assets:
Right-of-use assets - operating leases	$	206,392	$	197,365
Liabilities:
Lease liabilities - operating leases	227,271		218,847

The incremental borrowing rate used to calculate the lease liability was determined based on the facts and circumstances of the economic environment and the Company’s credit standing as of the effective date of ASC 842. Additionally, the total lease term and total lease payments were also considered in determining the rate. Based on these considerations the Company identified credit terms available under its existing credit lines which represent a collateralized borrowing rate that has varying credit terms that could be matched to total lease terms and total lease payments in ultimately determining the implied borrowing rate in each lease contract.

The following table presents our undiscounted future cash payments for our operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2020:
