LEASES, OTHER COMMITMENTS AND CERTAIN CONTINGENCIES

Leases

We have operating leases that primarily relate to certain of our data centers and facilities. As of May 31, 2024, our operating leases substantially have remaining terms of one year to fifteen years, some of which include options to extend and/or terminate the leases.

Operating lease expenses totaled $1.2 billion, net of sublease income of $9 million in fiscal 2024 and $873 million, net of sublease income of $11 million in fiscal 2023. At May 31, 2024, ROU assets, current lease liabilities and non-current lease liabilities for our operating leases were $7.3 billion, $1.3 billion and $6.3 billion, respectively. We recorded ROU assets of $4.2 billion in exchange for operating lease obligations during the year ended May 31, 2024. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $1.2 billion and $894 million for the year ended May 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of May 31, 2024, the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was approximately nine years and the weighted average discount rate used for calculating operating lease obligations was 5.1%. As of May 31, 2024, we have $22.9 billion of additional operating lease commitments, primarily for data centers, that are generally expected to commence between fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2027 and for terms of nine to fifteen years that were not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2024 or in the maturities table below.

Subsequent to May 31, 2024, we entered into $9.3 billion of additional operating lease commitments for data centers that are generally expected to commence between fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2026 and for terms of fourteen to fifteen years.

Unconditional Obligations

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into certain unconditional purchase obligations with our suppliers, which are agreements that are enforceable and legally binding and specify terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the payment. Certain routine arrangements that are entered into in the ordinary course of business are not included in the amounts below, as they are generally entered into in order to secure pricing or other negotiated terms and are difficult to quantify in a meaningful way or are for terms of less than one year.

As of May 31, 2024, our unconditional purchase and certain other obligations were as follows (in millions):

As described in Note 7 above, as of May 31, 2024 we have senior notes and other borrowings that mature at various future dates and derivative financial instruments outstanding that we leverage to manage certain risks and exposures.

Guarantees

Our cloud, license and hardware sales agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and have not accrued any material liabilities related to such obligations in our consolidated financial statements. Certain of our sales agreements also include provisions indemnifying customers against liabilities in the event we breach confidentiality or service level requirements. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to our limited and infrequent history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.

Our Oracle Cloud Services agreements generally include a warranty that the cloud services will be performed in all material respects as defined in the agreement during the service period. Our license and hardware agreements also generally include a warranty that our products will substantially operate as described in the applicable program documentation for a period of one year after delivery. We also warrant that services we perform will be provided in a manner consistent with industry standards for a period of 90 days from performance of the services.
