Leases
The Company’s lease obligations consist of operating leases for office facilities and equipment, with lease periods expiring through fiscal year 2032. Some leases include one or more options to renew. Lease renewals are not assumed in the determination of the lease term until the exercise of the renewal option is deemed to be reasonably certain.
In February 2023, the Company assigned (“the Lease Assignment”) the remaining lease term of its previous headquarters and concurrently entered into a sublease for office space in San Mateo, California with the same third party for its worldwide headquarters. As a result of the Lease Assignment, the Company recognized an $8.5 million loss in general and administrative operating expenses during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2023 on the consolidated statements of operations. The loss is comprised of an $18.4 million gain from the de-recognition of the operating lease asset of $56.9 million, the de-recognition of the lease liability of $75.5 million, and
other expenses related to the Lease Assignment of $0.2 million, offset by accelerated depreciation expense related to property and equipment, primarily consisting of leasehold improvements, at the previous headquarters of $26.9 million. In fiscal year 2023 upon lease commencement of the new worldwide headquarters, the Company recognized a $27.1 million operating lease asset and $19.6 million lease liability.
