As most of the Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

Failed Sale and Leaseback

The Company leases various equipment through purchase and leaseback agreements with terms between five and seven years. The purchase and leaseback agreements provide an option for Firefly to purchase the equipment for nominal consideration that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The purchase and leaseback agreements were evaluated under the sale and leaseback guidance in ASC 842-40, Leases – Sale and Leaseback Transactions. Due to the purchase option, the transactions were accounted for as failed sales and leasebacks, and the Company has accounted for the purchase and leaseback agreements as financings.

As a result, the Company continues to reflect the manufacturing equipment on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets in property and equipment, net, and continues to recognize depreciation expense over its estimated useful life. In 2024, the Company recorded an initial financing liability of $34.7 million, net of transaction costs, in notes payable. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s related notes payable, current and non-current, were $6.1 million and $19.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s related notes payable, current and non-current, were $6.0 million and $21.1 million, respectively. The Company does not recognize rent expense related to these purchase and leaseback agreements. Instead, periodic lease payments are recognized as interest expense and reductions of the principal balance of the finance liability.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, payments of $1.4 million were made under the purchase and leaseback agreements in addition to interest expense of $0.5 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, payments of $1.3 million were made under the purchase and leaseback agreements in addition to interest expense of $0.6 million.
