  (1) On August 27, 2025, the Company entered into a premium finance agreement for the policy period beginning August 3, 2025. The total premium was $2,172,622, of which $544 was paid as a down payment and $1.6 million was financed. The agreement includes a finance charge of $51, resulting in total payments of $1.7 million payable in nine monthly installments of $187 through May 2026 at an annual percentage rate of 7.48%.

 

The financing obligation is secured by unearned premiums under the financed policies. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recorded prepaid insurance of approximately $1.26 million and AFCO loan payable of approximately $0.9 million. Prepaid insurance is amortized over the policy term, and the financing liability is reduced as payments are made. Interest expense is recognized using the effective interest method.
