Note 4 – Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, as amended, Leases (Topic 842) using the modified retrospective method of applying the new standard at the adoption date. In addition, the Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, does not require reassessment of prior conclusions related to contracts containing a lease, lease classification, and initial direct lease costs. Adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of net operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets of $45,727 and corresponding operating lease liabilities of $67,508 as of January 1, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheets for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC Topic 840, Leases.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. Substantially all of the Company’s leases are operating leases. A significant portion of the Company’s operating lease portfolio includes manufacturing sites, component warehouses and corporate offices. The remaining lease terms on the majority of the Company’s leases is between 2.5 to 8 years, some of which include options to extend the lease terms. Leases with initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets are presented within long term assets, the current portion of operating lease liabilities is presented within current liabilities and the non-current portion of operating lease liabilities are presented within long term liabilities on the consolidated condensed consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and the lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make the lease payments arising during the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. The Company’s ROU assets have been reduced by the remaining unamortized lease incentive that the Company received on February 28, 2018 from Navistar, Inc in exchange for the Company assuming all of the remaining contractual lease obligations for the Shoals facility. The Company’s lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. As most of the Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The components of the lease costs were as follows:

On February 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Amendment to its lease of the Shoals, Alabama manufacturing facility to extend the initial term thereof from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2026, with two five-year extension terms thereafter through December 31, 2031 and December 31, 2036, at the Company’s option. In addition, the Company will vacate up to 40% of the manufacturing facility on or before December 31, 2021 with the base rent payable to the Landlord reduced on proportional basis.

The Company has accounted for the amendment as a modification of the lease, resulting in a non-cash increase to lease liability and right of use asset of $32,079. The company concluded that the initial term through December 31, 2026 would be included in the measurement of lease liabilities as of March 31, 2019. The Company has concluded that the options for extensions beyond that date are not reasonably certain of exercise, and have been excluded from the measurement of lease liabilities.
