Commitments and Contingencies Commitments and Contingencies
Legal—The Company is subject to the usual obligations associated with entering into contracts for the development and sale of real estate inventories and other potential liabilities incidental to its business.
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are a party to various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, the disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Performance Obligations—In the ordinary course of business, and as part of the entitlement and development process, the Company’s subsidiaries are required to provide performance bonds to assure completion of certain public facilities. The Company had $92.1 million and $78.0 million of performance bonds outstanding as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Operating Leases—The Company has various operating leases, most of which relate to office facilities. Future minimum payments under the noncancelable operating leases in effect at March 31, 2021 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
2021 $ 1,201 
2022 1,624 
2023 1,397 
2024 1,182 
2025 855 
Thereafter 762 
Total lease payments 7,021 
Less: Discount (932)
Present value of lease liabilities $ 6,089 
Operating lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $0.4 million and $0.5 million respectively, and is included in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company primarily enters into operating leases for the right to use office space and computer and office equipment, which have remaining lease terms that range from one to seven years and often include one or more options to renew. The weighted average remaining lease term as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 4.1 and 4.4 years, respectively. Renewal terms are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised.
The Company established a right-of-use asset and a lease liability based on the present value of future minimum lease payments at the later of January 1, 2019, the commencement date of the lease, or, if subsequently modified, the date of modification for active leases. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used in determining the present value of future minimum payments as of the commencement date. The weighted average rate as of March 31, 2021 was 5.9%. Lease components and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $5.7 million and $6.1 million recognized as a right-of-use asset and lease liability, respectively, which are presented on the consolidated balance sheets within other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $6.0 million and $6.4 million recognized as a right-of-use asset and lease liability, respectively.
