Lessee Obligations

In the normal course of business, we lease office space, primarily for international sales administration offices, in commercial office complexes that are conducive to sales and administrative operations. We also rent warehousing and distribution facilities that are designed to provide secure storage and efficient distribution of our training products, books, and accessories, and certain office equipment. These leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Since most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and we do not have significant amounts of variable lease payments.

Some of our operating leases contain renewal options that may be exercised at our discretion after the completion of the base rental term. At August 31, 2024, we had operating leases with remaining terms ranging from less than one year to approximately four years. The amounts of assets and liabilities (in thousands) and other information related to our operating leases follows:

Lessor Accounting

We have subleased the majority of our corporate headquarters campus located in Salt Lake City, Utah to multiple tenants. These sublease agreements are accounted for as operating leases. We recognize sublease income on a straight-line basis over the life of the sublease agreement. The cost basis of our corporate campus is $36.6 million, which had a carrying value of $2.0 million at August 31, 2024. Sublease revenue through the end of our master lease agreement in June 2025 is expected to total $1.5 million. Sublease revenue totaled $1.9 million, $2.4 million, and $3.9 million during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
