15. LEASES

The Company has a finance lease for the shell of the building constructed as the Company's operations center which expires in November 2039. The Company is also obligated under various noncancelable operating lease agreements for land, buildings and equipment that require future minimum rental payments. For operating each lease, the Company records an operating lease right-of-use asset (representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term) and an operating lease liability (representing the obligation to make lease payments required under the terms of the lease). Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate – derived from information available at the lease commencement date – as the discount rate when determining the present value of lease payments. The Company does not have any operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Certain operating leases contain various provisions for increases in rental rates, based either on changes in the published Consumer Price Index or a predetermined escalation schedule. Certain operating leases provide the Company with the option to extend the lease term one or more times following expiration of the initial term. Lease extensions are not reasonably certain and the Company generally does not include payments occurring during option periods in the calculation of its operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities. The Company adopted the requirements of ASC 842 effective April 1, 2019, which required the Company to record in the consolidated balance sheet operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of more than 12 months that existed as of April 1, 2019. The periods prior to the date of adoption are accounted for under superseded ASC 840; therefore, the following disclosures include only the period for which ASC 842 was effective.
