Citizens is engaged in the leasing of equipment for commercial use, primarily focused on Fortune 1000 companies for large capital equipment acquisitions including aircraft and railcars, among other equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease and the related lease classification at inception. Lease terms predominantly range from three years to seven years and may include options to terminate the lease early or purchase the leased property prior to the end of the lease term. Certain lease agreements include rental payments based on an index or are adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company does not have lease agreements which contain lease and nonlease components.

A lessee is evaluated from a credit perspective using the same underwriting standards and procedures as for a loan borrower. A lessee is expected to make rental payments based on its cash flows and the viability of its operations. Leases are usually not evaluated as collateral-based transactions, and therefore the lessee’s overall financial strength is the most important credit evaluation factor.
