Leases

 

The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach with no restatement of prior periods or cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit.  The reported results for 2019 reflect the application of ASC 842 while the reported results for 2018 and 2017 were prepared under ASC 840.  Upon adoption, the Company elected the package of transition practical expedients, which allowed the Company to carry forward prior conclusions related to whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and initial direct costs for existing leases. The Company also made an accounting policy election not to recognize leases with an initial term of 12 months or less within its consolidated balance sheets and to recognize those lease payments on a straight-line basis in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss over the lease term. Upon adoption of the new leasing standards, the Company recognized an operating lease asset of approximately $13,737 and a corresponding operating lease liability of approximately $24,497, which are included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The adoption of the new leasing standards did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The impact to the consolidated balance sheets for the opening balances is as follows:

The Company leases real estate, primarily laboratory, office and manufacturing space. The Company’s leases have remaining terms ranging from less than 1 year to 5 years. Certain leases include one or more options to renew, exercised at the Company’s sole discretion, with renewal terms that can extend the lease from one year to five years. The Company evaluated the renewal options in its leases to determine if it was reasonably certain that the renewal option would be exercised, and therefore should be included in the calculation of the operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities. Given the Company’s current business structure, uncertainty of future growth, and the associated impact to real estate, the Company concluded that it is not reasonably certain that any renewal options would be exercised. Therefore, the operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities only contemplate the initial lease terms. All of the Company’s leases qualify as operating leases.

 

In July 2019, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with a related party to sublease a portion of its office and laboratory space in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The term of the sublease agreement commenced in July 2019 and ends on the last day of the 24th calendar month following commencement, with no option to extend. The annual rent for the subleased premises will be approximately $1,200 in the first year and $1,300 in the second year, which is greater than the annual rent owed by the Company to the landlord for the leased premises. The sublessee is obligated to pay all real estate taxes and costs related to the subleased premises, including cost of operations, maintenance, repair, replacement and property management.

 

As of December 31, 2019, future undiscounted cash inflows under the sublease are as follows:

The Company concluded that the sublease is an operating lease. Consistent with the Company’s policy election for lessor operating leases, each lease component and its associated non-lease components is accounted for as a single lease component.
