Leases

12 Months Ended

NOTE 12 – LEASES

The Company leases certain real estate properties, vehicles and equipment in various countries around the world. Leased properties are typically used for retail space, office, warehouse and distribution.

The Company evaluates contractual arrangements at inception to determine if individual agreements are a lease or contain an identifiable lease component. When evaluating contracts to determine appropriate classification and recognition, significant judgment may be necessary to determine, among other criteria, if an embedded leasing arrangement exists, the length of the term, classification as either an operating or financing lease and whether renewal or termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, adjusted for the lease term and lease country, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. Lease assets also include any up front lease payments made and are reduced by lease incentives. The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases with remaining terms of 1 to 11 years, some of which include an option to extend or renew. If the exercise of an option to extend or renew is determined to be reasonably certain, the associated right-of-use asset and liability reflects the extended period of payments.

Lease expense for operating leases consist of both fixed and variable components. Expenses related to fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and include certain index-based changes in rent, certain non-lease components such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor and other charges included in the lease. The variable portion of lease payments is not included in the Company’s lease liabilities. Short-term leases are leases having a term of 12 months or less at inception. The Company does not record a related lease asset or liability for short-term leases. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.
