Operating Leases

 

The Company has operating leases for real estate in the United States and South Africa and does not have any finance leases.

 

In 2019, the Company had entered into a real estate lease for office space in Wilmington/Andover, Massachusetts. The Company was involved in the construction and design of the space and incurred construction costs, subject to an allowance for tenant improvements of $0.2 million. The lease expiration date is August 31, 2026. The base rent is $0.1 million per year, subject to an annual upward adjustment. The lease commencement date, for accounting purposes, was reached in June 2020 when the Company was granted access to the premises and therefore the lease is included in the Company’s operating lease right-of-use asset and operating lease liabilities as of June 2020.

 

The Company leased office and warehouse space in South Africa under a lease that expired on November 30, 2020. The base rent was approximately $3,700 per month. In December 2020, the Company entered into a new lease for office and warehouse space. The lease expires in November 2024. The base rent during the three months ended February 28, 2021 was approximately $4,600 per month.

 

The Company leased real estate in Fort Wayne Indiana. The lease expires on February 28, 2022. In February 2021, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with the landlord. Upon termination, the Company was required to pay a termination fee of approximately $27,000. The Company leases warehouse and manufacturing space in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The lease expires on July 31, 2025. The base rent is approximately $8,000 per month. The Company also leases office space in Las Vegas, Nevada. The lease expires on August 31, 2022. The base rent is approximately $4,000 per month.

 

Certain of the Company’s leases contain options to renew and extend lease terms and options to terminate leases early. Reflected in the right-of-use asset and lease liability on the Company’s balance sheets are the periods provided by renewal and extension options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, as well as the periods provided by termination options that the Company is reasonably certain to not exercise. 

 

As of February 28, 2021 and November 30, 2020, right-of-use assets of $1.3 million and $1.2 million, current lease liabilities of $0.2 million and $0.3 million and non-current lease liabilities of $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, are reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Sales-Type Leases 

The Company entered into an equipment lease as lessor. The lease is being accounted for as a sale-type lease. The term of the lease is 3 years. For a sales-type lease, the carrying amount of the asset is derecognized from property and equipment and a net investment in the lease is recorded. The net investment in the lease is measured at commencement date as the sum of the lease receivable and the estimated residual value of the equipment. The unguaranteed residual value of the equipment is determined as the estimated carrying value of the asset at the end of the lease term had the asset been depreciated on a straight-line basis. Selling profit or loss arising from a sales-type lease is recorded at lease commencement and presented on a gross basis. Over the term of the lease, the Company recognizes interest income on the net investment in the lease. At lease commencement, the Company determined the unguaranteed residual value of the equipment was $0 and the selling profit or loss was immaterial.

 

The receivable recorded as a result of the lease is collateralized by the underlying equipment and consist of the following components at February 28, 2021 (in thousands):

 

Net minimum lease payments to be received   $ 122  
Less: unearned interest income portion     16  
Net investment in sales-type leases, current     106  
Less: current portion     39  
Net investment in sales-type leases, non-current   $ 67  

 

The maturity schedule of future minimum lease payments under sales-type leases and the reconciliation to the net investment in sales-type leases reported at February 28, 2021 was as follows (in thousands):
