- Leases
 
Operating Leases.
In
August 2020,
the Company entered into a new lease in Abu Dhabi for land upon which the Company intends to build a facility. The annual payments are initially expected to be approximately
1.2
million Dirhams (approximately
$0.3
million at
October 31, 2020),
inclusive of rent and common charges, with escalation clauses in the agreement. Rent payments are deferred until
August 2022. 
The lease expires in
August 2050.
 
Finance Leases.
In
2019,
 the Company obtained
two
finance leases for a total of CAD
1.1
million (approximately
$0.8
million at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction dates) to finance vehicle equipment. The interest rates for these finance leases were
8.0%
per annum with monthly principal and interest payments of less than
$0.1
million. These leases mature in
August 2023. 
In
2017,
the Company obtained
three
finance leases for a total of CAD
1.1
million (approximately
$0.8
million at the prevailing exchange rates on the transaction dates) to finance vehicle equipment. The interest rates for these finance leases range from
4.0%
to
7.8%
per annum with monthly principal and interest payments of less than
$0.1
million. Two of these leases matured in
April 
2021
and new leases have been entered into in
May 2021
to replace the matured leases. The remaining lease matures in
September 
2022.
 
The Company has several significant operating lease agreements, with lease terms of
one
to 
30
years, which consist of real estate, vehicles and office equipment leases. These leases do
not
require any contingent rental payments, impose any financial restrictions or contain any residual value guarantees.  Certain of the Company's leases include renewal options and escalation clauses; renewal options have
not
been included in the calculation of the lease liabilities and right-of-use ("ROU") assets as the Company is
not
reasonably certain to exercise the options.  Variable expenses generally represent the Company's share of the landlord's operating expenses.  The Company does
not
have any arrangements where it acts as a lessor, other than
one
sub-lease arrangement. 
 
At
April 30, 2021
, the Company had total operating lease liabilities of
$13.5
 million and total operating ROU assets of
$12.2
 million, which are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. At
April 30, 2021
, the Company also had total finance lease liabilities of $
0.6
million included in current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt less current maturities, and total finance ROU assets of $
0.7
million which were included in property plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation in the consolidated balance sheet.
