SkyWater as the Lessor
In March 2020, SkyWater executed a contract with a customer that includes an operating lease for the right to use a specified portion of the Company’s Minnesota facility to produce wafers using the customer’s equipment. The contractual amount that relates to revenue from an operating lease was $21,000, and is being recognized over the estimated lease term of
4.5 years. The total amount was prepaid by the customer and recorded as deferred revenue. See Note 4 – Revenue for additional information on revenue recognition and deferred revenue of the operating lease.
SkyWater Furnace Sale-Leaseback Transaction
In June 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to sell and leaseback a furnace over a 36 month period. Monthly lease payments total $142 under the agreement. The Company received $4,599 of cash as part of the sale agreement and accounted for the transaction as a failed sale leaseback. As a result, the Company is deemed the owner of the asset and a financial obligation has been recorded. Monthly lease payments will reduce the financial obligation balance, with a portion of the payments being applied to interest expense over the course of the lease.
