Leases [Abstract] |
Leases | 8. Leases We lease real estate, equipment and automobiles in the U.S. and internationally. Our real estate leases, which are responsible for the majority of our aggregate ROU asset and liability balances, include leases for office space, data centers and other facilities, and as of October 29, 2021, have remaining lease terms not exceeding 15 years. Some of these leases contain options that allow us to extend or terminate the lease agreement. Our equipment leases are primarily for servers and networking equipment and as of October 29, 2021, have remaining lease terms not exceeding 4 years. As of October 29, 2021, our automobile leases have remaining lease terms not exceeding 5 years. All our leases are classified as operating leases except for certain immaterial equipment finance leases. In June 2020, we entered into a build-to-suit lease agreement for an office building located in Wichita, Kansas, with future undiscounted payments of approximately $67 million. Because the Company does not control the underlying asset during the construction period, the Company is not considered the owner of the asset under construction for accounting purposes. The lease will commence upon completion of the construction of the office building which is expected to be in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The initial term of the lease is twenty years with options to renew the lease during the lease term. A ROU asset and related lease liability will be measured and recognized in our financial statements in the period the lease commences. In April 2021, we entered into a lease for our new corporate headquarters located in San Jose, California, which is comprised of approximately three hundred thousand square feet of office space and requires future minimum undiscounted payments of approximately $180 million over the initial 11-year lease term. The lease agreement also provides us two successive renewal options, each for five years. The lease commenced during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The components of lease cost related to our operating leases were as follows (in millions):
