16. Leases

The Company has operating leases for real estate. Lease expiration dates range between 2028 and 2034.

The Company has leases for office space and certain equipment. Some of the leases include options to extend the lease for up to ten years and these options were not included for the purpose of determining the right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities as the Company determined that the renewal of these leases is not reasonably certain. The leases do not include any restrictions or covenants that had to be accounted for under the lease guidance. All of the leases recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as ROU assets are operating leases.

In July 2025, the Company acquired KAF and entered into an agreement to lease the approximately 11,500 rentable square feet facility in Stamford, Connecticut. The lease commenced in December 2025 for a term of 25 months with total lease costs of approximately $0.4 million.

In June 2025, the Company entered into a new operating lease agreement in Burlington, Massachusetts. The new lease is for approximately 13,000 rentable square feet and commenced in June 2025 for a term of 50 months with total lease costs of approximately $1.9 million. The Company abandoned its facility in Boston, Massachusetts to relocate the Company’s headquarters and research and development activities to the new Burlington location. See Note 10, Restructuring.

In February 2025, the Company entered into a new operating lease agreement in Massachusetts to relocate the machine shop from the Company’s headquarters to a lower cost location. The new lease is for approximately 3,500 rentable square feet and commenced in March 2025 for a term of 60 months with total lease costs of approximately $0.2 million.

In April 2024, the Company acquired an operating lease agreement (the “Danbury Lease”) in Danbury, Connecticut as a part of the acquisition of RedWave. The Company entered into an amendment in June 2024 to the Danbury Lease (the “Amended Danbury Lease”). Under the Amended Danbury Lease, the Company included an additional 9,000 square feet, representing its currently occupied space on the first floor, for a total of approximately 38,000 square feet and extended the term of the Danbury Lease for a new ten-year term. The Amended Danbury Lease is accounted for as a lease modification, which resulted in two new separate operating leases which are the original lease space (the “first floor lease”) and the expanded space (the “third floor lease”). The lease term of the first floor lease commenced in June 2024, which was the point at which the Company obtained control of the leased premises. On the commencement date of the first floor lease, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $0.6 million, respectively, and is accounted for as an operating lease. In August 2024, the Company obtained control of the expanded space under the third floor lease, and with occupancy began the term of 10 years. On the commencement date the Company recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $2.1 million, respectively, and is accounted for as an operating lease.

The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable and as such, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the lease commencement date, which represents an internally developed rate that would be incurred to borrow, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

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.
