LEASES LEASES

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2019

Our leases consist primarily of operating real estate leases for office space and data centers in the markets in which we conduct business. We also have operating and finance leases for computer and other equipment. Many of our leases include escalating rental payments and incentives, as well as termination and renewal options. Certain of our lease agreements provide that we pay the cost of property taxes, insurance and maintenance. As described in "Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," we adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. Unless otherwise indicated, the following information in this footnote applies only to periods after December 31, 2018.

The effects of adopting ASU 2016-02 on our balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 are set forth in the table below. Adoption did not have a material effect on any line items in our consolidated statement of income or on our cash flows from operating activities, investing activities or financing activities included in our consolidated statement of cash flows.

As of December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2019, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities consisted of the following:

⁽¹⁾Total operating lease payments did not include approximately $64 million for operating leases that had not yet commenced at December 31, 2019. We expect the lease commencement dates for these leases to occur in 2020.

Operating lease costs in our consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2019 were $85.9 million, including $71.0 million in selling, general and administrative expenses and $14.9 million in cost of services.Total lease costs for the year ended December 31, 2019 include variable lease costs of approximately $19.1 million, which are primarily comprised of the cost of property taxes, insurance and maintenance. Finance lease costs and lease costs for leases with a term of less than 12 months were not material for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $70.4 million, which is included as a component of cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. Operating lease liabilities arising from obtaining new or modified right-of-use assets, net of reductions resulting from certain lease modifications, were approximately $28.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. In connection with the Merger, we acquired right-of-use assets and assumed lease liabilities of $256.2 million and $272.0 million, respectively.

Future minimum payments at December 31, 2018 for noncancelable operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

Total future minimum payments⁽¹⁾	$	433,408

⁽¹⁾Future minimum lease payments included approximately $70 million for operating leases that had not commenced at December 31, 2018.

Rent expense on all operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $47.1 million and $44.7 million, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2017, we sold our operating facility in Jeffersonville, Indiana for $37.5 million and simultaneously leased the property back for an initial term of 20 years, followed by four optional renewal terms of five years. The arrangement met the criteria to be treated as a sale for accounting purposes, and as a result, we derecognized the associated property. There was no resulting gain or loss on the sale because the proceeds received were equal to the carrying amount of the property.
