Leases
We have entered into various non-cancelable operating leases, primarily for our offices and data centers, with lease terms expiring through the year ending July 31, 2036. Some of our leases contain rent holiday periods, scheduled rent increases, lease incentives, early termination rights, and/or renewal options.
During the years ended July 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, our net cost for operating leases was $121.7 million, $104.7 million, and $91.3 million, respectively, primarily consisting of operating lease costs of $88.1 million, $75.6 million, and $64.2 million, respectively. Our net cost for operating leases also included variable lease costs, short-term lease costs, and sublease income in the periods presented.

About Leases Disclosures

Lease disclosures under ASC 842 provide a comprehensive view of a company's leased asset portfolio, including the split between operating and finance leases, discount rates used to present-value future payments, and the maturity schedule of lease obligations. This section reveals a significant source of off-balance-sheet commitments that were largely hidden before the current standard.

Key signals: the weighted-average discount rate affects the size of recorded lease liabilities — a higher rate reduces the reported obligation, so compare the chosen rate against the company's incremental borrowing rate. The operating versus finance lease mix affects both EBITDA and operating income presentation. Watch the maturity table for concentration risk: large payment cliffs in specific years may create cash flow pressure. Variable lease payments excluded from the liability measurement represent real obligations that do not appear on the balance sheet. Compare total lease costs against prior-year operating lease expense to assess the true economic burden.
