The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in ROU assets, current lease liabilities and non-current lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not have material finance leases.
ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. As none of the Company's leases provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes prepaid payments and excludes lease incentives. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
On April 1, 2019, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, dated as of February 21, 2019, between Envestnet, Tamarac, Inc. (“Tamarac”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Envestnet, Performance Technologies, Inc. (“Seller”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Charles Schwab Corporation (“Schwab”), and Schwab, Tamarac completed the acquisition (the “PortfolioCenter Acquisition”) of certain of the assets, primarily consisting of intangible assets, and the assumption of certain of the liabilities of Sellers’ PortfolioCenter Business. The PortfolioCenter Business comprised Seller’s business of providing to investment advisors: desktop, hosted and outsourced multicustodial software solutions that provide data-management and performance-measurement tools, as well as customizable accounting, reporting, and billing functions consisting of the software applications comprising the commercial products known as PortfolioCenter desktop application, PortfolioCenter Hosted, and PortfolioServices.
We introduced adjusted net revenues as a non-GAAP financial metric in the first quarter of 2019 to eliminate the effects of asset-based cost of revenue, which is included in both asset-based recurring revenue and cost of revenue in the our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As our business model moves towards a more subscription-based recurring revenue model, excluding this portion of our revenue from certain analysis performed by management improves the usefulness and comparability of such analysis when evaluating the growth and profitability of the overall business, and in comparing segment performance. While the amounts included in the calculation of adjusted net revenues are disclosed in our condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes, management believes providing more transparency into this metric is beneficial to investors who wish to evaluate our performance in this fashion.
“Adjusted net revenues” represents adjusted revenues less asset-based cost of revenues. Under GAAP, we are required to recognize as revenue certain fees paid to investment managers and other third parties needed for implementation of investment solutions included in our assets under management. Those fees also are required to be recorded as cost of revenues. This non-GAAP metric presents adjusted revenues without such fees included, as they have no impact on our profitability.
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, “Leases.” The adoption of this standard resulted in recognition of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities, with no related impact on our condensed consolidated statement of equity or condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019. In connection with the adoption of this new standard, we implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our contracts and properly assessed the impact of the new accounting standard.
