3.  LEASES

As a Lessor. All leases on our properties are classified as noncancelable operating leases, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due per the respective lease agreements are capitalized or charged, as applicable, to accrued rents and accounts receivable. Percentage rents are recognized as rental income when the thresholds upon which they are based have been met.  Recoveries from tenants for taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period the corresponding costs are incurred. We combine lease and nonlease components in lease contracts, which includes combining base rent, recoveries, and percentage rents into a single line item, Rental, within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

A summary of minimum future rents to be received (exclusive of renewals, tenant reimbursements, contingent rents, and collectability adjustments under Topic 842) under noncancelable operating leases in existence as of September 30, 2022 is as follows (in thousands):

Years Ended December 31,	Minimum Future Rents(1)
2022 (remaining)	$	24,444
2023		93,917
2024		80,285
2025		63,598
2026		48,308
Thereafter		139,948
Total	$	450,500

⁽¹⁾ These amounts do not reflect future rental revenues from the renewal or replacement of existing leases and exclude reimbursements of operating expenses and rental increases that are not fixed.

As a Lessee. We have office space, automobile, and office machine leases, which qualify as operating leases, with remaining lease terms of one to three years.

The following table summarizes the fixed, future minimum rental payments, excluding variable costs, which are discounted by our weighted average incremental borrowing rates to calculate the lease liabilities for our operating leases in which we are the lessee (in thousands):

Years Ended December 31,	September 30, 2022
2022 (remaining)	$	23
2023		65
2024		43
2025		27
2026		1
Thereafter		—
Total undiscounted rental payments		159
Less imputed interest		9
Total lease liabilities	$	150

For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the total lease costs were $ 122,000 and $ 253,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the total lease costs were $ 552,000 and $ 778,000, respectively. The weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases was 2.6 years at September 30, 2022. We do not include renewal options in the lease term for calculating the lease liability unless we are reasonably certain we will exercise the option or the lessor has the sole ability to exercise the option. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate was 4.5% at September 30, 2022.
