Commitments and Contingencies | Note 5 — Commitments and Contingencies ​ Leases ​ The Company’s operating leases primarily include real estate leases for properties used for manufacturing, R&D activities, sales and service, and administration, as well as certain equipment leases. Some leases may include options to renew for a period of up to 5 years, while others may include options to terminate the lease. The weighted average remaining lease term of the Company’s operating leases as of June 30, 2020 was 2.9 years, and the weighted average discount rate used in determining the present value of future lease payments was 6.0%. ​ The following table provides the maturities of lease liabilities at June 30, 2020: ​

​ Operating lease cost for both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1.4 million. Operating lease cost for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $2.7 and $2.8 million, respectively. Variable lease cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $0.4 and $0.9 million, respectively, and $0.4 and $1.0 million for the comparable 2019 periods. Additionally, the Company has an immaterial amount of short-term leases. Operating cash outflows from operating leases for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $3.5 million and $3.7 million, respectively. ​ Purchase Commitments ​ Veeco has purchase commitments of $86.3 million at June 30, 2020, substantially all of which become due within one year. ​ Bank Guarantees ​ Veeco has bank guarantees and letters of credit issued by a financial institution on its behalf as needed. At June 30, 2020, outstanding bank guarantees and letters of credit totaled $5.9 million, and unused bank guarantees and letters of credit of $25.9 million were available to be drawn upon. ​ Legal Proceedings ​ On June 8, 2018, an Ultratech shareholder who received Veeco stock as part of the consideration for the Ultratech acquisition filed a purported class action complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, captioned Wolther v. Maheshwari et al., Case No. 18CV329690, on behalf of himself and others who purchased or acquired shares of Veeco pursuant to the registration statement and prospectus which Veeco filed with the SEC in connection with the Ultratech acquisition (the “Wolther Action”). On August 2 and August 8, 2018, two purported class action complaints substantially similar to the Wolther Action were filed on behalf of different plaintiffs in the same court as the Wolther Action. These cases have been consolidated with the Wolther Action, and a consolidated complaint was filed on December 11, 2018. The consolidated complaint seeks to recover damages and fees under Sections 11, 12, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 for, among other things, alleged false/misleading statements in the registration statement and prospectus relating to the Ultratech acquisition, relating primarily to the alleged failure to disclose delays in the advanced packaging business, increased MOCVD competition in China, and an intellectual property dispute. Veeco is defending this matter vigorously. ​ On December 21, 2018, a purported Veeco stockholder filed a derivative action in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, captioned Vladimir Gusinsky Revocable Trust v. Peeler, et al., Case No. 18CV339925, on behalf of nominal defendant Veeco. The complaint seeks to assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment against current and former Veeco directors premised on purported misstatements and omissions in the registration statement relating to the Ultratech acquisition. Veeco is defending this matter vigorously. The Company is involved in various other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
