Notes to Financial Statements |
Lessee, Operating Leases [Text Block] | NOTE 13 – LEASES The Company has operating leases for its corporate offices and office equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of 1 month to 46 months as of December 31, 2022, some of which include options to extend or terminate the lease. However, the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise options to renew or terminate, and therefore renewal and termination options are not included in the lease term. The Company’s current lease arrangements expire in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company has removed $3.3 million of right-of-use assets and liabilities related to the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) rights-of-way leases due to a court ruling in September 2022 which vacated the rights-of-way and returned them to the BLM. The Company will reapply for the rights-of-way and work with the BLM on any additional environmental review required to authorize the conveyance of water in the Northern Pipeline over BLM lands. The Company does not have any finance leases. Cadiz Inc. Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements The Company’s lease population does not include any residual value guarantees, and therefore none were considered in the calculation of the lease balances. The Company has leases with variable payments, most commonly in the form of common area maintenance charges which are based on actual costs incurred. These variable payments were excluded from the right-of-use asset and lease liability balances since they are not fixed or in-substance fixed payments. The Company elected to utilize the practical expedients permitted within the leasing standard, including the practical expedient not to reassess existing land easements, which among other things, allows the Company to carryforward the historical lease classification. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and has elected the practical expedient to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for real-estate class of leases only. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related asset and lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less with purchase options or extension options that are not reasonably certain to be exercised are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Most of the Company’s lease agreements do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate nor is it available to us from its lessors. Instead, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at either the implementation date of Topic 842 or at lease commencement for leases entered into thereafter in order to discount lease payments to present value. The table below presents additional information related to the Company’s leases as of December 31, 2022:
Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term |  |  |  |
Operating leases (years) |  |  | 4 |

The Company expects to record rental income of $420 thousand annually over the next five years related to the FVF Lease Agreement.
