UTAH MEDICAL PRODUCTS INC Leases Disclosure
Note 14 – Leases
UTMD has operating leases for a portion of its parking lot at its Midvale facility and an automobile at its Ireland facility. The remaining lease term on the parking lot is less than 6 years, and on the automobile is 18 months. There are no options to extend or terminate the leases. The parking lot lease contains a provision that requires an adjustment every five years to the lease payment based on the change in the Consumer Price Index. This adjustment occurred in 2021 requiring an increase of $87 to the value of the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities. UTMD has no other leases yet to commence. As neither lease contains implicit rates, UTMD’s incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at adoption date, was used to determine the present value of the leases.
Operating lease costs for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were $67, $66, and $65, 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.
