10. Right-of-use asset and lease liability

 

The Company leases all of its office premises in Ontario, Canada under non-cancellable operating lease arrangements accounted for under ASC 842 - Leases.

 

Ontario Offices

 

The Company’s head office premises in Ontario comprise approximately 4,894 square feet under a lease that was extended to January 1, 2030. In addition, during fiscal 2024 the Company acquired 8,368 square feet of adjacent space from the same landlord, with the new lease also expiring on January 1, 2030. The combined total area occupied in Ontario is 13,262 square feet.

 

For purposes of measuring the related lease liability and right-of-use asset under ASC 842, the Company applied an incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) of 6%, which reflects the Company’s estimated cost of borrowing on a secured basis over a similar term.

 

British Columbia Office (Lease Surrender)

 

On May 29, 2023, the Company entered into a lease for 1,454 square feet of office space located at Unit 601 – 2950 Glen Drive, Coquitlam, British Columbia, for a five-year term commencing August 1, 2023 and originally expiring July 31, 2028.

 

Subsequently, pursuant to a Lease Surrender Agreement with the landlord (RPMG Holdings Ltd.) dated August 21, 2025, the Company agreed to surrender and terminate the lease effective July 31, 2025. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid a surrender fee of $24,875 plus GST, and the security deposit was forfeited to the landlord in full settlement of all obligations under the lease.

 

Lease Surrender Agreement

 

The surrender resulted in a derecognition (“deletion”) of the associated right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability in fiscal 2025, with no material gain or loss recognized.
