11. Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases under ASC 842, whereby it recognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use asset. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted by the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company measured the right of use asset at an initial amount equal to the lease liability.

The lease was renewed effective June 1, 2024 at a rate of $3,600 per month with a termination date of May 31, 2025. The lease was not renewed after the initial extension period ended May 31, 2025. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate used to initially measure the present value of the remaining lease payments was 10%.

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.
