Payments for operating lease liabilities for the twelve months ending December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were $833,000 and $894,000 which included short-term lease costs of $38,000 and $25,000. The total annual lease expense in 2024 and 2023, including operating lease expenses and short-term lease expenses, was approximately $845,000 and $745,000, respectively. Variable payments were not material and were treated as non-lease components and were recognized in the period for which the costs occur.
For the largest lease component, the company has three facilities with our headquarters and primary engineering and operational functions located in Redmond, Washington. Our two subsidiary facilities in Munich, Germany and Shanghai, China provide extended worldwide sales, service, engineering and operations services. The total annual gross or base lease payments during 2024 and 2023 were approximately $795,000 and $823,000, respectively. The lease payment decrease in 2024 was due primarily to a reduction in lease rates for our Redmond, Washington and Shanghai, China facilities. The lower rates reflect the real estate market conditions as part of the lease extensions which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Redmond lease was renewed and extended by 3.75 years and the Shanghai, China lease was renewed and extended by 3 years.
The Redmond, Washington headquarters facility lease runs to October 31, 2029, at approximately 20,460 square feet. The lease for the facility located in Shanghai, China runs to October 31, 2027, at approximately 19,400 square feet. The lease for the facility located near Munich, Germany runs to August 2027, at approximately 4,895 square feet.

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.
