Note 5. Lease Commitments

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 2016-02”). The Company leases nineteen locations for administrative and loan production offices and branch locations. Seventeen leases were classified as operating leases and two leases were classified as finance leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less as well as leases with a discounted present value of future cash flows below $25 thousand are not recorded on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized over the lease term. The Company elected to use the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases on the consolidated balance sheet and instead account for them as executory contracts.

Certain leases include options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term, typically for five years. Lease assets and liabilities include related options that are reasonably certain of being exercised. The Company has determined that it will place a limit on exercises of available lease renewal options that would extend the lease term up to a maximum of fifteen years, including the initial term. The depreciable life of leased assets are limited by the expected lease term.

(1) The discount rate was developed by using the fixed rate credit advance borrowing rate at the FHLB of Atlanta for a term correlating to the remaining life of each lease. Management believes this rate closely mirrors its incremental borrowing rate for similar terms.
