NOTE 9– LEASES

The Company accounts for its leases under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, “Leases”. The Company determines at its inception whether an arrangement that provides us control over the use of an asset is a lease. We recognize at lease commencement a right-of-use (ROU) asset and lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. We have elected not to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for leases with terms of 12 months or less. Our current long-term leases include an option to extend the term of the lease prior to the end of the initial term. It is not reasonably certain that we will exercise the option and have not included the impact of the option in the lease term for purposes of determining total future lease payments. As our lease agreement does not explicitly state the discount rate implicit in the lease, we use our promissory note borrowing rate to calculate the present value of future payments.

In addition to the base rent, real estate leases typically contain provisions for common-area maintenance and other similar services, which are considered non-lease components for accounting purposes. For our real estate leases, we apply a practical expedient to include these non-lease components in calculating the ROU asset and lease liability. For all other types of leases, non-lease components are excluded from our ROU assets and lease liabilities and expensed as incurred.
