8. LEASES, COMMITMENTS, AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and in July 2018, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) – Targeted Improvements (collectively, the Standard). As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted the Standard on January 1, 2022.
The Company’s leases are summarized as follows:
 
   
A lease for its headquarters and laboratory facilities in Roseville, MN which encompasses approximately 38,000 square feet. The original lease term was 20 years, and the Company holds four 5-year renewal options. Historically, this lease was considered a failed sale leaseback based on the nature of the transactions and was reported as a financing-type lease.
 
   
An equipment financing arrangement that is considered a financing-type lease. This arrangement has a term of four years for each draw. The Company was required to deposit cash into a restricted account in an amount equal to the future rent payments required by the lease. As of September 30, 2022, restricted cash totaled $0.2 million. The Company has the option to request the return of excess collateral annually in December, and the amount the Company expects to receive is reflected as a current asset.
 
   
A small number of short-term and immaterial leases for office equipment.
The Company’s adoption of the Standard required it to remove its existing land, buildings, and equipment associated with its headquarters lease as well as the associated liability. The Company assessed the elements of its lease agreement and upon adoption, recorded an operating lease associated with the sale leaseback of land underlying the headquarter facility, and a second operating lease associated with the building. The cumulative effect of the adoption of the Standard was recorded to stockholders’ equity. The impact of adoption on the Company’s December 31, 2021, consolidated balance sheet was as follows:

The Company records its operating lease liabilities at the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. If the lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease, those elements are included in the determination of lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The rate used to determine the present value of future lease payments is the rate stated in the lease agreement, or if not stated, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used, up to an effective rate that enables the lease liability to amortize to zero over the lease term. Rent expense for operating leases is recorded in selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expense in the consolidated statements of operations and in operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company also records operating lease right-of-use assets at an initial amount equal to the operating lease liability. Those right-of-use assets are amortized to lease expense within SG&A over the lease term using the effective interest method to ensure the right-of-use asset amortizes to zero concurrent with the associated liability, and the right-of-use asset amortization expense is also reported in operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The Company records its financing lease liabilities at the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. If the lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease, those elements are included in the determination of lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The rate used to determine the present value of future lease payments is the rate stated in the lease agreement, or if not stated, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used, up to an effective rate that enables the lease liability to amortize to zero over the lease term. Expense associated with financing leases is recorded in interest, net in the consolidated statements of operations and in operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The Company is obligated under non-cancellable operating leases, primarily for office space and certain equipment, as follows:

The Roseville, MN lease includes four options to each extend the lease for 5 years. These options to extend the lease are not recognized as part of the right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as it is not reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. The Company’s agreement does not include options to terminate the lease.
