17.LEASES

We have operating leases for facilities used for manufacturing, research and development, sales and distribution, and office space, as well as leases for manufacturing and office equipment, vehicles, and land. Our leases have remaining terms ranging from less than one year to approximately 28 years. A number of our lease agreements contain options to renew at our discretion for periods of up to 15 years and options to terminate the leases within one year. The lease term used to calculate ROU assets and lease liabilities includes renewal and termination options that are deemed reasonably certain to be exercised. Lease agreements with lease and non-lease components are generally accounted for as a single lease component. We do not have any bargain purchase options in our leases. For leases with an initial term of one year or less, we do not record a ROU asset or lease liability on our consolidated balance sheet. Substantially all of the ROU assets and lease liabilities as of December 31, 2021 recorded on our consolidated balance sheet are related to our cardiovascular segment.

From time to time, we enter into agreements to sublease a portion of our facilities to third parties. Such sublease income is not material. We also lease certain hardware consoles to customers and record rental revenue as a component of net sales. Rental revenue under such console leasing arrangements for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was not significant.

The following was included in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we entered into sale and leaseback transactions to finance certain production equipment for $2.0 million. At that time, we deferred the gain from the sale and leaseback transaction, of which $93,000 remained as of December 31, 2018. As part of the adoption of ASC 842, we wrote-off the deferred gain as an adjustment to equity through retained earnings as of January 1, 2019.

We recognize lease expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Net lease cost for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was $15.9 million, $16.7 million, and $16.5 million, respectively. The components of lease costs for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 were as follows, in thousands:

Generally, our lease agreements do not specify an implicit rate. Therefore, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate, which is defined as the interest rate we would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis, considering such factors as length of lease term and the risks of the economic environment in which the leased asset operates. As of December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, our lease agreements had the following remaining lease term and discount rates:
