13. Leases
The Company leases certain facilities, land, vehicles and equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception and recognizes ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than twelve months. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are accounted for as short-term leases and are not recognized in the balance sheet. Operating fixed lease expenses and finance lease depreciation expense are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments which cannot be determined at the lease commencement date, such as reimbursement of lessor expenses, were not included in the ROU assets or lease liabilities.
Non-lease components, such as payment of real estate taxes, maintenance, insurance and other operating expenses, have been excluded from the determination of the Company's lease liability. For all new and modified leases entered into after the adoption of ASC 842, the Company reassesses the lease classification and lease term on the effective date of modification. Lease term includes renewal periods if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise any renewal options per the lease contract. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. The Company subleases certain real estate to third parties.
As most leases do not have readily determinable implicit rates, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rates based on prevailing financial market conditions, comparable companies and credit analysis and management judgments to determine the present values of its lease payments. The Company also applies the portfolio approach to account for leases with similar terms.

Lessor Arrangements. The Company leases operating equipment to customers through operating and sales-type leases, where the lessor for tax purposes is considered to be the owner of the equipment during the term of the lease. The majority of the lease agreements do not include options for the lessee to purchase the underlying asset at the end of the lease term for either a stated fixed price or fair market value. However, some of the leases contain a termination clause in which the customer can cancel the contract. The leases can be subject to variable lease payments and the Company does not record any lease assets or liabilities related to these variable items. The carrying amount of equipment leased to others, included in property, plant and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was$54 million and$56 million, respectively. Rental revenues recognized for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were$94 million,$60 million and$50 million, respectively.
