5.   LEASES

 

In  August 2025, the Company was assigned operating leases for distribution and warehouse facilities in Orlando, FL and Tampa, FL and certain transportation equipment related to the acquisition of Century. The Orlando lease expires  July 31, 2029 and calls for monthly rental payments of approximately $25,000. The Tampa lease expires  November 30, 2029 but contains a 6 month extension option and calls for monthly rental payments of approximately $21,000. The Company recognized initial right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities of approximately $2.4 million related to the assumed Century leases. The Company's other ROU assets and lease liabilities consist primarily of operating leases for the Granite City, IL operating facility and administrative office spaces in The Woodlands, TX and Longview, TX. The Company’s other operating leases for items such as operations equipment, IT equipment and storage space are either short-term in nature or immaterial. The Company does not have any finance leases in place.

 

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on if the arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration and allows the Company to obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the identified asset. Certain lease agreements contain rent escalation clauses and one or more options to extend the lease. The Company considers these provisions when calculating operating lease obligations. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to determine the present value of lease payments.
