Operating Leases
Note 6 - Operating Leases
We adopted the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”) effective January 1, 2019. As lessee, our leasing activities primarily consist of operating leases for administrative offices, warehouses, oilfield services equipment, office equipment, computers and other items. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 15 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 20 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year
We elected the following package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance:
an election to adopt the modified retrospective transition method applied at the beginning of the period of adoption, which does not require a restatement of the prior period. Accordingly, no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings was made.
an election not to apply the recognition requirements in Topic 842 to short-term leases (initial lease term of 12 months or less) and recognize lease payments in the consolidated statement of operations. Short-term leases have not been recorded on the balance sheet.
a practical expedient to not reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease and carry forward its historical lease classification.
a practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components separately (except as discussed below).
a practical expedient to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for certain assets, by class of underlying asset.
We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at its inception. Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the balance sheet. An operating lease right-of-use asset represents our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and an operating lease liability represents our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. An operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise those options. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $21.0 million as of January 1, 2019.
