LEASES

6 Months Ended

NOTE H – LEASES

The Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), on October 1, 2019. Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset, measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, at the lease commencement date. The Company adopted this guidance on October 1, 2019, electing the modified retrospective transition approach method that does not adjust previous periods. The Company also elected not to include short-term leases (i.e., leases with initial term of twelve months or less), or equipment leases (deemed immaterial) on the consolidated statements of condition as provided for in the guidance.

The Company has operating leases for five branch locations. Our leases have remaining lease terms of up to 11 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 10 additional years. Operating leases are recorded as ROU assets and lease liabilities and are included within Other assets and Accounts payable and other liabilities, respectively, on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Operating lease ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement base on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents our incremental borrowing rate. The Company recorded a $3.8 million operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liability beginning October 1, 2019. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company to value its operating leases was based on the interpolated term advance rate available from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, based on the remaining lease term as of October 1, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, the Company’s operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities totaled $3.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
