During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, Woodward determined that the approved plan to divest of the renewable power systems business and other related businesses (as described more fully in Note 10, Sale of businesses, and defined therein as the “disposal group”) represented a triggering event requiring that the long-lived assets attributable to the disposal group be assessed for impairment. Given the facts and circumstances at that time, Woodward determined that the remaining value of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets of the disposal group were not recoverable and a $639 non-cash impairment charge was recorded during fiscal year 2020. Lease-related expenses were as follows:

Lessor arrangements Woodward has assessed its manufacturing contracts and concluded that certain of the contracts for the manufacture of customer products met the criteria to be considered a leasing arrangement (“embedded leases”) with Woodward as the lessor. The specific manufacturing contracts that met the criteria were those that utilized Woodward property, plant and equipment and which is substantially (more than 90%) dedicated to the manufacturing of the product(s) for a single customer. Woodward has dedicated manufacturing lines with three of its customers representing embedded leases, all of which qualified as operating leases with undefined quantities of future customer purchase commitments. Although Woodward expects to allocate some portion of future net sales to these customers to embedded lessor arrangements, it cannot provide expected future undiscounted lease payments from property, plant and equipment leased to customers as of March 31, 2021. If, in the future, customers reduce purchases of related products from Woodward, the Company believes it will derive additional value from the underlying equipment by repurposing its use to support other customer arrangements. Revenue from contracts with customers that included embedded operating leases, which is included in “Net sales” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, was $1,511 for the three-months and $3,309 for the six-months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $1,561 for the three-months and $3,125 for the six-months ended March 31, 2020. The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment leased to others through embedded leasing arrangements, included in “Property, plant and equipment, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, follows:
|  | March 31, 2021 |  |  | September 30, 2020 |
Property, plant and equipment leased to others through embedded leasing arrangements |  | $ | 76,995 |  |  | $ | 76,655 |
Less accumulated depreciation |  |  | (32,716 | ) |  |  | (29,819 | )
Property, plant and equipment leased to others through embedded leasing arrangements, net |  | $ | 44,279 |  |  | $ | 46,836 |
