The Company reviews the impairment of ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for the Company’s other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations.
In connection with the restructuring we implemented in January 2025 (See Note 18 Restructuring, Impairments, and Related Charges for more details), we have determined that the carrying value of the ROU asset for our office in Trondheim are not recoverable and recorded an impairment charge of approximately $140,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. recorded and included in other assets were approximately $64,000 and $214,000 at July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company will continue to make lease payments under the lease until the end of the lease term on March 31, 2027, or sooner upon signing of an early lease termination agreement.

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.
