7. Leases

The Company has operating leases for stores, distribution and fulfillment centers, corporate offices and equipment. The Company subleases certain properties to third parties. The Company has elected not to record a lease liability and right-of-use asset for leases with original terms of 12 months or less. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components as it pertains to real estate leases.

Store leases have remaining lease terms that range from less than one year up to 15 years, some of which contain options to extend the lease for one or two 5-year periods. Payments related to a renewal period are included in the lease liability and right-of-use asset only when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option to renew the lease for an extended period of time. Certain leases may contain variable lease payments such as rent based on a percentage of net sales. Variable lease payments may be subject to a breakpoint threshold of fixed rent. Variable lease payments, other than those that depend on an index or a rate, are not included in the measurement of the lease liability. The lease liability is calculated at the present value of certain future payments, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, which approximates the rate of interest the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a fully collateralized basis over a similar term. Significant judgment is used in determining the incremental borrowing rate.

Total operating lease costs were $68,915 and $202,990 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively. Total variable lease costs were $15,631 and $50,340 during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively. Short-term lease costs and sublease income were not material during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Anthropologie, Inc., is party to a ground lease (the “Lease”) with Waterloo Devon, L.P. (the “Landlord”). Wade L. McDevitt was a minority owner of the Landlord and its general partner and is the brother-in-law of Scott Belair, one of the Company’s former directors. Pursuant to the Lease, the Company rented approximately six acres located in Devon, Pennsylvania to develop a lifestyle center, which includes an expanded format Anthropologie store, a Terrain store, several restaurant concepts under the Food and Beverage division and a boutique event space. The Lease, which commenced on June 14, 2017, has an initial term of 40 years with two options to extend, each for an additional ten-year term. The initial rental rate is $1,087 per year, and rent increases 10% every five years during the initial term. The aggregate amount of rental payments payable under the initial term of the Lease is approximately $62,135. Real estate taxes, insurance, construction costs and other third-party expenses will also be paid by the Company. If the Company exercises its option to extend the Lease, rental payments during such extension term will be 90% of the market rental rate. An independent committee of the Board of Directors retained a national commercial real estate services firm to provide an appraisal of the initial market rental value of a portion of the property, which confirmed that the proposed initial rental rate per acre was consistent with market rates. The Lease and appraisal were reviewed by a committee of disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors and the Lease was approved by such committee and by the Company’s Board of Directors.
