LEASES

NOTE 12 – LEASES

The Company enters into leases in the normal course of business primarily for financial centers, back office operations locations and business development offices.  The Company’s leases have remaining terms ranging from 1 to 11 years.

The Company includes lease extension and termination options in the lease term if, after considering relevant economic factors, it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option.  In addition, the Company has elected to account for any non-lease components in its real estate leases as part of the associated lease component.  The Company has also elected not to recognize leases with original lease terms of 12 months or less (short-term leases) on the Company’s balance sheet.

Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date.  Leases in which we are the lessee are recorded as a right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, which are included in premises and equipment and other liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets.  Lease expense for leases and short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and is recorded in net occupancy and equipment expense in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income.  Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation

to make lease payments arising from the lease.  Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date and based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.

The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to calculate the present value of lease payments when the rate implicit in a lease is not known. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is based on the FHLB amortizing advance rate, adjusted for the lease term and other factors.
