Oxide Plant Lease and Oxide Plant Lease Costs

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2017 the Company recorded revenue of approximately $3.3 million and related costs of approximately $1.1 million associated with the lease of the Velardeña Properties oxide plant. The Company recognizes oxide plant lease fees and reimbursements for labor, utility and other costs as “Revenue: Oxide plant lease” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss following the guidance of ASC 605 regarding "income statement characterization of reimbursements received for "out-of-pocket" expenses incurred" and "reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent".  ASC 605 supports recording as gross revenue fees received for the reimbursement of expenses in situations where the recipient is the primary obligor and has certain discretion in the incurrence of the reimbursable expense. The actual costs incurred for reimbursed direct labor and utility costs are reported as “Oxide plant lease costs” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company recognizes lease fees during the period the fees are earned per the terms of the lease.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 the Company recorded revenue of approximately $3.0 million and related costs of approximately $0.9 million associated with the lease of the Velardeña Properties oxide plant.
