LeasesThe Company leases its facilities for office space under non-cancellable operating leases with various expiration dates through the fiscal year ending April 30, 2033. Certain lease agreements include options to renew or terminate the applicable lease, which are not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into the determination of lease payments.
On August 25, 2021, the Company entered into a new lease to acquire approximately 283,015 square feet of office space in several phases in Redwood City, California. The lease commencement date was determined as the date when the landlord delivered the leased space to the Company. Accordingly, the first two phases of the lease commenced in the quarter ended January 31, 2022, the third phase of the lease commenced in the quarter ended October 31, 2022, the fourth phase of the lease commenced in the quarter ended April 30, 2023, the fifth phase of the lease commenced in the quarter ended July 31, 2023, the sixth phase of the lease commenced in the quarter ended January 31, 2024, and the seventh and final phase of the lease commenced in the quarter ended July 31, 2024. The Company recorded $1.3 million of lease liability in other long-term liabilities and corresponding right-of-use asset in other assets, non-current in the consolidated balance sheets related to the seventh phase of the lease.
