Annual Report FY24

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2024 and 2023 and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The assets and liabilities associated with finance leases are included within land, buildings, and equipment, net and other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. NSU has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and obligations for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, as well as certain leases consisting of generally low value (under $5,000) equipment. To the extent a lease arrangement includes both lease and non-lease components, the components are combined as one component. Operating and finance lease right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments to be made over the expected lease term. NSU uses the rate implicit in a lease, if it is determinable. When the rate implicit in the lease is not determinable, NSU uses its incremental borrowing rate as of the commencement date to determine the present value of the lease payments. The lease term may include renewal or extension options to the extent they are reasonably certain to be exercised; this assessment is made at lease commencement. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Interest expense is recognized as a component of the lease payment for finance leases. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are expensed as incurred (such as the pro rata share of actual real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance costs associated with real estate leases). The university leases property, primarily space within university facilities, under agreements that are classified as operating leases. The university’s lessor arrangements are all operating leases and do not include any sales-type or direct finance leases. Property leased to others is included in land, buildings, and equipment, net on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Short-term rental revenues and lessor operating lease income are recognized to the extent that amounts are determined to be collectible and included within other revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Activities, totaling $2.1 million and $1.9 million for fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively. NSU Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale On July 1, 2008, the university merged with the Museum of Art, Inc. (the Museum), a not-for-profit organization, with NSU as the surviving organization. The Museum acquires art for its collection through purchase or by gift. As permitted by the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 958, Not-for-Profit Entities, the Museum does not include its collection items as assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Accordingly, no value has been assigned to the Museum’s art collection. As of June 30, 2024, the collection is insured for $55.0 million. The university’s policy requires any proceeds from the sale of collection items to be used to acquire other items for the collection or for the direct care of its collection (expenditures that enhance the life, usefulness, or quality of an object, and improve the physical impact and condition of an item). Proceeds from the sale of collection items and expenditures for collection items purchased are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Activities within other revenues and expenses, respectively. For fiscal 2024 and 2023, expenditures for collection items purchased but not capitalized were $172,000 and $25,000, respectively. There were no sales of collection items in either fiscal year. When the Museum receives contributions of works of art with the donor’s stipulation that they will be sold rather than added to the collection, such works of art are recognized as increases to net assets without donor restrictions at their fair value. 21
