NOTE 19 – LEASES

 

The Company is party to contracts where we lease property from others under contracts classified as operating leases. The Company primarily leases office and operating facilities, vehicles, and office equipment. The weighted average remaining term of our operating leases was approximately 3.23 years at March 31, 2026, and 3.30 years at March 31, 2025. The weighted average discount rate used to measure lease liabilities was approximately 6.16% at March 31, 2026, and 6.22% at March 31, 2025. The Company used the rate implicit in the lease, where known, or its incremental borrowing rate as the rate used to discount the future lease payments.

 

The Company has a single lease that is classified as a finance lease for equipment acquired as part of the Richland acquisition. The remaining term of this lease is 0.58 years with a discount rate of 1.76% as of March 31, 2026.

 

The Company has elected not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.

 

The Company’s security segment leases approximately 350 square feet of office space in Clovis, CA on a month-to-month lease at a rent of $2,075 per month. Short-term rent expense was $12,840 for the six months ended March 31, 2026, and $25,671 for the six months ended March 31, 2025.
