NOTE 16—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LITIGATION AND REGULATORY
We may become subject to legal proceedings, regulatory investigations and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. If this occurs we will review each proceeding, investigation and claim on a case by case basis and determine the probability of losses after considering, among other things, opinions and views of legal counsel and outcomes of similar cases and circumstances. There is significant judgment in making these estimates and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.
COMMITMENTS
Lease Commitments
In February 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for office space in Boca Raton, Florida. The lease, as amended, commenced on April 1, 2022, and expires on March 1, 2026, with monthly base rent ranging from approximately $4.0 thousand to $5.0 thousand. The lease required a deposit of approximately $7.0 thousand, which is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Upon lease commencement, the Company recognized a right of use asset and liability of approximately $143.0 thousand using a discount rate of 6.0%. As of December 31, 2025 we did not have any material lease commitments, see Note 7—Acquisitions and Dispositions for further discussion.
Lease expense was approximately $65.7 thousand and $95.0 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility
On January 24, 2026, we entered into a revolver with our equity method investee. Under the terms of the agreement we committed to provide a revolving credit facility of up to $4.75 million for 36 months. The credit facility bears an annual interest rate of 10%, which accrues daily based on a 360-day year. The first interest payment is due to us 18 months after the date of the Revolver.

About Commitments Disclosures

Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.

Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
