The Company has operating leases for office space and, to a much lesser extent, operating leases for equipment. The Company’s office leases are between terms of less than 1 year and 5 years. Rents usually increase annually in accordance with defined rent steps or are based on current year consumer price index adjustments. Some of the lease agreements contain one or more of the following provisions or clauses: tenant allowances, rent holidays, lease premiums, and rent escalation clauses. There are typically no purchase options, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. When renewal options exist, the Company generally does not deem them to be reasonably certain to be exercised, and therefore the amounts are not recognized as part of our lease liability nor our right-of use-asset. The Company has certain leases that have terms that are a year or less and are accounted on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company recognized $0.1 million of lease expense in both 2024 and 2023.

The weighted average remaining lease term is 3.6 years. The weighted average discount rate utilized is 6%. The discount rates applied to each lease, reflects the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate. This includes an assessment of the Company’s credit rating to determine the rate that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis for a similar term, an amount equal to the Company’s lease payments in a similar economic environment. For the twelve months ended December 27, 2024, the Company paid $1.4 million from operating cash flows for operating leases.

The Company has operating lease agreements for its premises that expire on various dates through July 2029. Lease expense for the years ended December 27, 2024, December 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022 was $1.2 million, $1.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The components of lease expense during the fiscal years ended December 27, 2024, December 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022, all related to operating lease costs.
