We enter into various contractual arrangements for the right to use facilities, vehicles and equipment. The lease term generally ranges from two to ten years for facilities and three to five years for vehicles and equipment. Our lease terms may include the exercise of renewal or termination options when it is reasonably certain these options will be exercised. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

Current operating lease liabilities were $26,128 and $21,981, respectively, as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, and current finance lease liabilities were $4,198 and $4,563, respectively, as of September 30, 2025 and 2024. Current operating and finance lease liabilities were included in "Accounts payable and accrued expenses" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2025 and 2024. Non-current finance lease liabilities and finance lease right-of-use assets were included in the "Other non-current liabilities" and "Other non-current assets", respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
