Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies Letters of Credit As of July 31, 2017 and January 31, 2017, we had letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $26.5 million and $26.8 million, respectively, in connection with our operating and capital leases. Letters of credit in connection with our facility leases are collateralized by certificates of deposit. Refer to Note 7 for additional details. Leases We have entered into various non-cancellable operating lease agreements for certain of our offices and datacenters with lease periods expiring primarily between fiscal years 2018 and 2029. Certain of these arrangements have free or escalating rent payment provisions and optional renewal clauses. We are also committed to pay a portion of the actual operating expenses under certain of these lease agreements. These operating expenses are not included in the table below. We also entered into various capital lease arrangements to obtain servers for our operations. These agreements are typically for three to four years. The leases are secured by the underlying leased servers. As of July 31, 2017, future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable capital and operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

We sublease certain floors of our headquarters and one floor of our office in San Francisco. These subleases have terms ranging from 19 to 49 months that will expire between fiscal 2018 and 2021. Non-cancellable sublease proceeds for the years ending January 31, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 of $3.6 million, $5.8 million, $1.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, are included in the table above. We establish assets and liabilities for the present value of estimated future costs to return certain of our leased facilities to their original condition. Such assets are depreciated over the lease period into operating expense, and the recorded liabilities are accreted to the future value of the estimated restoration costs. We did not have material asset retirement obligations as of July 31, 2017 and January 31, 2017. In addition, sufficient information did not exist as of July 31, 2017 to reasonably estimate the fair value of asset retirement obligations for a Tokyo, Japan lease signed in April 2017. We recognize rent expense under our operating leases on a straight-line basis. Rent expense totaled $6.9 million and $4.2 million, net of sublease income of $1.9 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and rent expense totaled $12.2 million and $8.6 million, net of sublease income of $3.7 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended July 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Purchase Obligations As of July 31, 2017, future payments under non-cancellable contractual purchases, which relate primarily to datacenter operations and sales and marketing activities, are as follows (in thousands):

Legal Matters In June 2013, Open Text S.A. (Open Text) filed a lawsuit against us in the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Virginia, alleging that our core cloud software and Box Edit application infringed 12 patents of Open Text. This case was subsequently transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and, in February 2015, went to trial. In February 2015, the jury returned a verdict in which it awarded damages in favor of Open Text in a lump sum and fully paid-up royalty in the amount of $4.9 million. Both parties appealed certain aspects of the trial. While we continued to defend the lawsuit vigorously and continued to believe we had valid defense to Open Text’s claims, we considered the issuance of the verdict a recognized subsequent event that provided additional evidence about conditions which existed as of January 31, 2015. Accordingly, as of January 31, 2015, we accrued $4.9 million in relation to the jury award and recorded an expense in the amount of $3.9 million for the year ended January 31, 2015, in relation to the portion of the jury award attributable to prior periods. The portion of the jury award attributable to future periods was recorded as an asset as of January 31, 2015. This asset was amortized over an estimated useful life of 14 months, and the amortization expense was $0.9 million for the year ended January 31, 2016. In addition, we deemed Open Text’s claim for interest on the jury award amount to be probable and estimable for the first time in July 2015. As such, we accrued additional expenses in the aggregate amount of $0.7 million during the year ended January 31, 2016, in relation to the interest on the jury award amount. On March 31, 2016, we entered into a Confidential Settlement and Release Agreement with Open Text (the “Settlement Agreement”), which fully settled the lawsuit and resulted in a full dismissal of the case against the Company. In connection with such settlement, we paid $3.75 million in total to Open Text, and our obligation to pay the jury award amount of approximately $4.9 million and all pre- and post-judgment interest was terminated. The parties agreed to drop all appeals pending in connection with the litigation and each agreed to certain standard mutual releases related to the subject matter of the suit. We recorded the settlement payment of $3.75 million, reversed previous related accruals and interest of $5.6 million, and recorded $0.1 million in recurring amortization for the asset, resulting in net income of $1.7 million in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2016. In addition to the litigation discussed above, from time to time, we are a party to litigation and subject to claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We investigate these claims as they arise, and accrue estimates for resolution of legal and other contingencies when losses are probable and estimable. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe there was not at least a reasonable possibility that we had incurred a material loss with respect to such loss contingencies as of July 31, 2017. Indemnification We include service level commitments to our customers warranting certain levels of uptime reliability and performance and permitting those customers to receive credits in the event that we fail to meet those levels. In addition, our customer contracts often include (i) specific obligations that we maintain the availability of the customer’s data through our service and that we secure customer content against unauthorized access or loss, and (ii) indemnity provisions whereby we indemnify our customers for third-party claims asserted against them that result from our failure to maintain the availability of their content or securing the same from unauthorized access or loss. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such commitments. Our arrangements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products or services infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification obligations due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such obligations and have not accrued any material liabilities related to such obligations in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, we indemnify our officers, directors and certain key employees while they are serving in good faith in their respective capacities. To date, there have been no claims under any indemnification provisions.
