5. Leases

In June 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the lease of research facility space with a commencement date of November 15, 2015 (the “2015 Lease”). The lease expires in February 2022. The 2015 Lease contains escalating rent clauses which require higher rent payments in future years. With the adoption of ASC 842, the Company has recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability.

In May 2016, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for its primary office and research facility in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with a commencement date of December 23, 2016 (the “2016 Sublease”). The sublease expires in December 2026, and the Company has an option to extend the term of sublease for an additional five-year period if, at the time of expiration of the initial term, the sublessor does not intend to utilize the space for itself or its affiliates. The 2016 Sublease contains escalating rent clauses which require higher rent payments in future years. With the adoption of ASC 842, the Company has recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability. The right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability does not include the additional five-year period under the option.

In May 2019, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office facility space with a commencement date of June 1, 2019 (the “2019 Lease”). The lease expires in November 2026, and the Company has an option to extend the term of the lease for an additional five-year period based on certain conditions within the Company’s control. The 2019 Lease contains escalating rent clauses which require higher rent payments in future years. At lease commencement, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability. The right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability does not include the additional five-year period under the option.

In addition, the Company rents certain office space in Zug, Switzerland, on a short-term basis for which a right-of-use asset and liability are not recorded, in accordance with the practical expedient elected.

The Company has embedded leases in certain research and license agreements for which the Company has recorded a right of use asset and liability. These arrangements are not significant in comparison to the Company’s total operating lease assets and liabilities. In addition, the Company has identified certain short-term leases embedded within its manufacturing contracts which are not recorded on the Company’s balance sheet in accordance with the practical expedient elected.

The Company identified and assessed the following estimates in recognizing the right-of-use asset and corresponding liability:

 

Expected lease term: The expected lease term for those leases commencing prior to January 1, 2019 did not change with the adoption of ASC 842. The expected lease term for leases commencing after the adoption of ASC 842 includes noncancelable lease periods and, when applicable, periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option, as well as periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option.  

 

Incremental borrowing rate: As the discount rates in the Company’s lease are not implicit, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate based on the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow a similar amount on a collateralized basis over a similar term.
