11. Leases

As of December 31, 2024, all of the Company’s leases are classified as operating and primarily consist of office space leases expiring in 2025 through 2029. The Company elected not to include short-term leases (i.e., leases with initial terms of less than twelve months), or equipment leases (deemed immaterial) in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company leases some miscellaneous office equipment, but they are immaterial and therefore the Company records the costs associated with this office equipment in the consolidated statements of operations rather than capitalizing them as lease right-of-use assets. The balance of the lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are displayed in the consolidated statements of financial condition and the below tables display further detail on the Company’s leases.

On July 7, 2023, the Company entered into a new lease agreement expiring in December 2028 for office space in the World Financial Center in New York City. This office replaced the New Jersey office as one of the Company’s key operating centers and the total commitment of the lease is approximately $2.1 million.

In October 2024, the Company transitioned its branch office in Omaha, Nebraska from a month-to-month agreement to a fixed-term commitment of five years expiring in September 2029. In November 2024, the Company entered into a new lease agreement expiring in February 2027 for office space in Chicago. This office is intended to support the expansion of our retail business and will be utilized upon commencement of operations. The total commitment of both leases is approximately 0.5 million.
