Leases
Company Headquarters (Waltham, MA)
In April 2021, the Company entered into a sublease agreement for office and storage space for its corporate headquarters located at 500 Totten Pond Road in Waltham, MA. The Company entered into an amendment to the sublease agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2023 in order to lease additional space within the building. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company amended the lease agreement to extend the term through October 31, 2025, with the option to further extend through June 30, 2031 with written notice. Additionally, during the three
months ended September 30, 2024, the Company amended the lease agreement again to expand our footprint in our headquarters and extend our lease until May 31, 2031. As a result of this amendment, no further option exists to extend the lease.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company was required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $0.3 million as a security deposit on the space which was classified as restricted cash, current on the consolidated balance sheets. The security deposit requirement expired on October 31, 2024, and consequently, the balance was no longer restricted as of December 31, 2024. The Company pays for its proportionate share of building operating expenses and taxes that are treated as variable costs and excluded from the measurement of the lease.
Storage Facilities
The Company additionally leases three storage spaces on a month-to-month basis that are classified as short-term leases.
Operating lease cost recognized during the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $1.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

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.
