6. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Company is party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of its business. The Company is not presently party to any legal proceedings the resolution of which it believes would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operation, cash flows or capital levels.

 

Leases

 

The Company entered into a five-year lease for its corporate headquarters in Stuart, Florida, commencing in November of 2022. The Company’s real estate lease also includes executory costs such as common area maintenance (non-lease component) and real estate taxes (not considered a component of the Company’s lease). As a practical expedient permitted under ASC 842, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The rent-related expense for this lease was $83,247 for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company had one lease classified as short-term leases as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

The Company’s office lease is classified as an operating lease. At the inception date of the office lease, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset of $330,554 in operating lease right-of-use asset, as well as an operating lease liability of $324,021. This lease liability represented the net present value of future lease payments for the lease utilizing a discount rate of 10%, which corresponded to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company made cash payments of $83,798 and $81,358 for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities, respectively.

 

The following table reconciles the undiscounted lease liabilities to the total lease liabilities recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025:

 

2026   86,312 
2027   66,180 
Total undiscounted lease liabilities  $152,492 
Less effects of discounting   (12,680)
Total lease liabilities  $139,812 

 

The remaining lease term was 1.8 years and 2.8 years as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

The discount rate used to determine the operating lease liability was 10% as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

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.
