On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach as of the adoption date. Reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The table below details the impact of adoption on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 (in thousands):

Practical Expedients

The Company elected the following practical expedients for transition to, and ongoing accounting under, ASC 842: i) the Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of a contract, ii) the Company does not reassess whether expired or existing contracts contain leases, nor does it reassess the lease classification for expired or existing leases and does not reassess whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under ASC 842, iii) the Company applies a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics and iv) the Company does not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases are or contain a lease under ASC 842.

Leases

The Company leases equipment and office space under operating leases. The operating leases have initial lease terms ranging from 1 to 5 years, some of which include options to extend or renew the leases for one year. Payments due under the lease contracts include fixed payments plus, in some instances, variable payments. The table below summarizes the Company’s leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (in thousands, except years and discount rate):
