Significant Non-Cash Transactions

Build-to-Suit Lease

In February 2016, the Company entered into a build-to-suit arrangement for a leadership development and headquarters facility in Atlanta, Georgia, which began construction in 2016. In accordance with ASC 840, “Leases,” for build-to-suit arrangements where the Company is involved in the construction of structural improvements prior to the commencement of the lease or takes some level of construction risk, the Company is considered the owner of the assets and land during the construction period. Accordingly, during construction activities, the Company recorded a Construction in progress asset within Property and equipment and a corresponding financing liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for construction costs incurred by the landlord.

The lease commenced in February 2018, with the leased asset and corresponding financing liability valued at $87 million each. In accordance with the sale and leaseback criteria of GAAP, the build-to-suit arrangement and subsequent lease failed to qualify as a sale. Therefore, the transaction is accounted for as a financing arrangement, whereby both the leased asset and the financing liability remain on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The asset is depreciated as if the Company is the legal owner and rental payments are allocated between interest expense and principal repayment of the financing liability.

In April 2018, the Company exercised its option to purchase the leased asset in February 2019 for $87 million. As a result, the financing liability is classified as a Current liability within the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
