Leases

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses and office space, computer equipment, and vehicles accounted for as operating leases. Lease terms typically range from one year to fifteen years. As of April 30, 2020, the Company did not have any finance leases.

The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception. The contract is considered to contain a lease if it provides the Company with the right to direct the use of and the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from an identified asset in exchange for consideration. The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term. Additionally, the ROU asset includes any lease payments made on or before the commencement date, initial direct costs incurred, and is reduced by any lease incentives received.

Some of the Company’s leases include options to extend the lease agreement. The exercise of an extension is at the Company’s sole discretion. The majority of renewal options are not included in the calculation of ROU assets and liabilities as they are not reasonably certain to be exercised. Some of the Company's lease agreements include rental payments that are adjusted periodically for inflation or the change in an index or rate, which are considered to be variable lease payments. Due to the nature of the Company’s variable lease payments, they are generally excluded from the initial measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company has lease agreements that include both lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to account for as a single lease component. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Generally, the discount rate implicit within the Company’s leases cannot be readily determined, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on the sovereign credit rating for the countries in which the Company has its largest operations, adjusted for several factors, such as internal credit spread, lease terms and other market information available at the lease commencement date.

Right-of-use assets are evaluated for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets. During the three months ended April 30, 2020, impairment charges of $2,475 were recorded related to right-of-use assets, of which $2,035 and $440 related to the WPS and IDS segments, respectively. Refer to Note D, "Other Intangible and Long-Lived Assets" for additional information.

Operating leases are reflected in “Operating lease assets,” “Current operating lease liabilities,” and “Long-term operating lease liabilities” on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
