Leases Leases
Operating Leases
The Company has entered into various non-cancellable operating lease agreements for manufacturing and distribution facilities, vehicles, equipment and office space. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Landec leases land, facilities, and equipment under operating lease agreements with various terms and conditions, which expire at various dates through fiscal year 2040. Certain of these leases have renewal options.
Finance Leases
On September 3, 2015, Lifecore leased an 80,950 square foot building in Chaska, MN, two miles from its current facility. The initial term of the lease is seven years with two five-year renewal options. The lease contains a buyout option at any time after year seven with the purchase price equal to the mortgage balance on the lessor’s loan secured by the building. Gross assets recorded under finance leases, included in property and equipment, net, were $3.8 million as of both May 30, 2021 and May 31, 2020. Accumulated amortization associated with finance leases was $0.6 million and $0.5 million as of May 30, 2021 and May 31, 2020, respectively. The monthly lease payment was initially $34,000 and increases by 2.4% per year. Lifecore and
the lessor made capital improvements prior to occupancy and thus the lease did not become effective until January 1, 2016. Lifecore is currently using the building for warehousing and final packaging.
