Leases

The Company periodically enters into agreements in which it is the lessee, including ground leases for neighborhood and community shopping centers that it operates and office leases for administrative space. The agreements range in term from less than one year to 50 or more years, with certain agreements containing extension options for up to an additional 100 years. As of March 31, 2019 the Company is not including any options to extend or termination rights in its ROU asset. Upon lease execution, the Company measures a liability for the present value of future lease payments over the noncancellable period of the lease. Certain agreements require the Company to pay its portion of reimbursable expenses such as common area expenses, utilities, insurance and real estate taxes. These payments are not included in the calculation of the lease liability and are presented as variable lease costs.
