AMERICAN REBEL HOLDINGS INC Leases Disclosure
NOTE 15 – LEASES AND LEASED PREMISES
Rental Payments under Non-cancellable Operating Leases and Equipment Leases
The Company, through its purchase of Champion, acquired several long-term leases for two manufacturing facilities, three office spaces, five distribution centers, and five retail spaces. Four of its distribution centers also have retail operations for which it leases its facilities. Lease terms on the various spaces’ range from a month-to-month lease (30 days) to a long-term lease expiring in September of 2028. Of the acquired long-term leases the Company is no longer leasing four of the distribution centers and four of the retail spaces.
Rent expense for operating leases totaled approximately $180,000 and $469,000 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These amounts are included in our consolidated statement of operations in Rental expense, warehousing, outlet expense and Administrative and other. Rental expense, warehousing, outlet expense is specific to warehousing and final manufacturing of our products.
The Company does not have any equipment leases whereby we finance this equipment needed for operations at competitive finance rates. New equipment to be financed in the near term, if necessary, may not be obtainable at competitive pricing with increasing interest rates.
Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities
Lease expense for operating leases consists of the lease payments plus any initial direct costs, net of lease incentives, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company’s operating leases are comprised primarily of facility leases. and as such we have no finance leases for our vehicles or equipment currently at this time.

About Leases Disclosures
Lease disclosures under ASC 842 provide a comprehensive view of a company's leased asset portfolio, including the split between operating and finance leases, discount rates used to present-value future payments, and the maturity schedule of lease obligations. This section reveals a significant source of off-balance-sheet commitments that were largely hidden before the current standard.
Key signals: the weighted-average discount rate affects the size of recorded lease liabilities — a higher rate reduces the reported obligation, so compare the chosen rate against the company's incremental borrowing rate. The operating versus finance lease mix affects both EBITDA and operating income presentation. Watch the maturity table for concentration risk: large payment cliffs in specific years may create cash flow pressure. Variable lease payments excluded from the liability measurement represent real obligations that do not appear on the balance sheet. Compare total lease costs against prior-year operating lease expense to assess the true economic burden.
