Leases [Abstract]  
Leases Note 11 – Leases

The Company has operating leases for its office, manufacturing and warehouse space, and office equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year to seven years, which include the option to extend a lease when the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option. Certain of our lease agreements include variable lease payments for common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and insurance or based on usage for certain equipment leases. For one of our office space leases, the Company entered into a sublease, for which it receives sublease income. Sublease income is recognized as a reduction to operating lease costs as the sublease is outside of the Company’s normal business operations. This is consistent with the Company’s recognition of sublease income prior to the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 842. The Company does not have any leases that have not yet commenced as of June 30, 2023.

The Company leases approximately 6,400 square feet of office space located in London, England. The lease was effective in August 2020 with a five year term and a tenant’s option to cancel after three years with no penalty to the Company. At the time the lease commenced, it was reasonably certain that the Company would exercise that option. The option to exercise required 6 months of notice on February 28, 2023. At that time, the Company determined that it would not exercise the option to cancel and recorded an adjustment of $265,000 to its lease liabilities and right-of-use asset to reflect the additional lease term.

The components of the Company’s lease cost were as follows for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

The Company’s lease agreements do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement in order to discount lease payments to present value.
