8. LEASES

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. We have operating leases for office and temporary living space as well as for some office equipment. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current operating lease liability and non-current operating lease liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company does not have any finance leases.

 

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which are derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to our bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates. We review our incremental borrowing rate on a quarterly basis.

 

 

Our lease terms include options to extend the lease when we believe that we may want the right to exercise that option. Leases with a term of less than 12 months are not recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Some leases include escalation clauses and termination options that are factored in the determination of the lease payments when appropriate. If a lease is modified after the effective date, the operating lease ROU asset and liability are re-measured using the current incremental borrowing rate.

 

Lease expense is included in direct operating costs, general and administrative expense, selling and marketing expense and research and development expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the nature of the expense. Our lease terms are determined taking into account lease renewal options, the Company’s anticipated operating plans and leases that are on a month-to-month basis. The Company also has some related party leases – see Note 10.
