NOTE 6 – LEASES
In accordance with ASC Topic 842, the Company recognizes assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases that extend more than twelve months from the date of the balance sheet. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, while lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of a lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Because the rate implicit in each individual lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments.
In 2022, the Company entered into operating leases for two office locations, including one in Hawaii in April 2022 and one in New York in November 2022 upon the acquisition of SUNation. In 2022, the Company had also entered into an operating lease for its corporate offices in Minnesota that commenced on January 1, 2023. In March 2023, the Company entered into an operating lease for an additional office location in Florida. These leases have remaining lease terms of 2 to 12 years. One lease includes a 3% rent adjustment on each anniversary of the lease, another includes a fixed annual rent adjustment of $6,840, another includes an annual 3% rent adjustment after two years and the other a 4% annual rent adjustment. As of December 31, 2023, total ROU assets and operating lease liabilities were $4,516,102 and $4,587,247, respectively. All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $718,441 and $212,000 in lease expense, respectively.
