Long term lease liabilities are next to meaningless for any kind of analysis because it's the sum of rent due at any point after the next 12 months. Could be at the 13th month. Could be at the 13th year. I am not an accountant but I believe you could sign a 50 year lease at $1m/year, that can be terminated at any time by paying a $1m penalty, and it would still show up as a $49m long term "liability".
