Leases

The Company has three operating leases for real estate in California and Maryland:

 

 

Carlsbad, California – corporate offices with a term date of February 2020 and leased from a related party (see also Note 6),

 

Oceanside, California – primary research facility and laboratory space with a term date of December 2021 with the Company’s option to terminate the lease on January 1, 2020 upon a six-month advanced notice,

 

Frederick, Maryland – mixed laboratory and administrative space with a term date of November 2025.

These operating leases are included in "right-of-use asset" on the Company's June 30, 2019 balance sheet and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company’s obligation to make lease payments is included in “operating lease liabilities, current” and “operating lease liabilities, net of current portion” on the Company's June 30, 2019 balance sheet. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities commencing after January 1, 2019 are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As of June 30, 2019, total right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities were approximately $849,000 and $1,239,000, respectively. All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments.
