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 two years to six years. 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. This lease, and the related sublease, terminated on October 31, 2023 and will not be renewed. The Company does not have any leases that have not yet commenced as of March 31, 2024.

The components of the Company’s lease cost were as follows for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

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.
