As Lessor:

We lease our operating properties to customers under agreements that are classified as operating leases. We recognize the total minimum lease payments provided for under the leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Generally, under the terms of our leases, the majority of our rental expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, are recovered from our customers. We record amounts reimbursed by customers in the period that the applicable expenses are incurred, which is generally ratably throughout the term of the lease.  We have elected the package of practical expedients that allows lessors to not separate lease and non-lease components by class of underlying asset. This practical expedient allowed us to not separate expenses reimbursed by our customers (“tenant reimbursements”) from the associated rental revenue if certain criteria were met.  We assessed these criteria and concluded that the timing and pattern of transfer for rental revenue and the associated tenant reimbursements are the same, and as our leases qualify as operating leases, we accounted for and presented rental revenue and tenant reimbursements as a single component under Lease revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.  As a result of our adoption of this practical expedient, we presented $4.2 million of base rental revenue for UHS facilities, $1.2 million of bonus rental revenue for UHS facilities and $223,000 of tenant reimbursement revenue for UHS facilities as a single component (“Lease revenue – UHS facilities”) in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and $12.5 million of base rental revenue for UHS facilities, $3.7 million of bonus rental revenue for UHS facilities and $694,000 of tenant reimbursement revenue for UHS facilities as a single component (“Lease revenue – UHS facilities”) in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to conform to the 2019 new presentation.  Additionally, we presented $10.4 million of base rental revenues from non-related parties and $2.5 million of tenant reimbursements from non-related parties as a single component (“Lease revenue – Non-related parties”) in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and $30.9 million of base rental revenues from non-related parties and $6.8 million of tenant reimbursements from non-related parties as a single component (“Lease revenue – Non-related parties”) in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to conform to the 2019 new presentation.  

Minimum future lease revenue from base rents from non-cancelable leases related to properties included in our financial statements on a consolidated basis, excluding increases from changes in the consumer price index, bonus rents and the impact of straight line rent adjustments, are as follows (amounts in thousands):

ASU 2016-02 requires that lessors expense certain initial direct costs, which were capitalizable under the previous leasing standard, as incurred.  Upon adoption, only the incremental costs of signing a lease will be capitalizable, which was consistent to our historical practice.

 

As Lessee:

We are the lessee with various third parties, including subsidiaries of UHS, in connection with ground leases for land at fourteen of our consolidated properties. Our right-of-use land assets represent our right to use the land for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the leases. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recognized upon adoption of Topic 842 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We utilized our estimated incremental borrowing rate, which was derived from information available as of January 1, 2019, in determining the present value of lease payments. A right-of-use asset and lease liability are not recognized for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, as these short-term leases are accounted for similar to previous guidance for operating leases.  We do not currently have any ground leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. As of September 30, 2019, our condensed consolidated balance sheet includes right-of-use land assets of approximately $9.0 million and ground lease liabilities of approximately $9.0 million.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities related to our operating leases was approximately $120,000, which is included in other operating expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of income.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities related to our operating leases was approximately $360,000, which is included as an operating cash outflow within the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and included in other operating expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of income.  As of and during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we did not enter into any lease agreements for our consolidated properties set to commence in the future and there were no newly leased assets for which a right-of-use asset was recorded in exchange for a new lease liability.

The following table summarizes the fixed, future minimum rental payments, excluding variable costs, which are discounted by our incremental borrowing rate to calculate the lease liabilities for our operating leases in which we are the lessee.  We do not include renewal options in the lease term for calculating the lease liability unless we are reasonably certain we will exercise the option.   Maturities of lease liabilities were as follows (in thousands):
