LEASES

BancShares leases certain branch locations, administrative offices and equipment. Operating leases are included in other assets and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance leases are included in premises and equipment and other borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets; we instead recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our corresponding obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating and finance lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The operating and finance lease ROU asset also includes initial direct costs and pre-paid lease payments made, excluding lease incentives. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, BancShares uses its incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. BancShares determines the incremental borrowing rate using secured rates for FHLB new advances under similar terms as the lease at inception. BancShares used the incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019, for operating leases that commenced prior to that date.

Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 25 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. When it is reasonably certain that we will exercise our option to renew or extend the lease term, that option is included in determining the value of the ROU and lease liability. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We have no related party lease agreements. As of March 31, 2019, there are no leases that have not yet commenced that would have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

We rent or sublease certain real estate to third parties to manage occupancy costs and provide flexibility to expand and contract occupancy space to meet our business needs.

The following table presents lease costs for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Variable lease cost primarily represents variable payments such as common area maintenance and utilities that are recognized in the period in which the expense is incurred. Certain of our lease agreements also include rental payments that are adjusted periodically for inflation. While lease liabilities are not remeasured as a result of these changes, these adjustments are treated as a variable lease cost and recognized in the period in which the expense is incurred.
