Leases [Abstract]  
LEASES LEASES
On December 23, 2024, the Bank agreed to a sale-leaseback transaction with Mountainseed Real Estate Services, LLC (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which the Bank sold to the Buyer two properties owned and operated as branch locations (the “Properties”) for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000, including customary closing adjustments. On December 31, 2024, the Bank also entered into triple net lease agreements (the “Lease Agreements”) with the Buyer under which the Bank leases each of the Properties, and pursuant to which the Bank is responsible for the insurance, real estate taxes, and maintenance and repairs for each of the properties. Each of the Lease Agreements became effective upon the closing and have an initial term of 15 years. The Bank’s obligations under the Lease Agreements are guaranteed by BayFirst Financial Corp.
As the rate implicit in the leases generally is not readily determinable for our operating leases, the discount rates used to determine the present value of our lease liability are based on our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date and commensurate with the remaining lease term. Our incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the components of total lease cost and supplemental information related to operating leases were as follows:
