14. Leases

The Company has operating leases for real estate. Lease expiration dates range between 2025 and 2030.

The Company has leases for office space and certain equipment. All of the leases recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as ROU assets are operating leases. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year to approximately seven years. Some of the leases include options to extend the lease for up to two years and these options were not included for the purpose of determining the right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities as the Company determined that the renewal of these leases is not reasonably certain. The leases do not include any restrictions or covenants that had to be accounted for under the lease guidance.

On January 2, 2018, the Company entered a new operating lease in Boston, Massachusetts (the “Lease”), for 37,500 rentable square feet of office space and is considered the Company’s corporate headquarters. A security deposit of $0.5 million was paid to the property owner and the Company issued a warrant to purchase 43,625 shares of Series D

preferred stock at a purchase price of $5.6351 per share. The initial fair value of the warrants of $0.3 million was recorded as additional rent payments, increasing the value of the ROU asset and preferred stock warrant liability.

The initial term of the lease is through October 2025. The annualized base rent will increase by 2.5% annually on the anniversary of the commencement date. The Company is obligated to pay its portion of real estate taxes and costs related to the premise, including costs of operations, maintenance, repair, replacement and management of the new leased premises.

The Company had a facility lease in North Carolina for approximately 2,000 square feet that had an expiration date of November 2020 then extended until June 2023.

In July 2022, the Company entered into a new operating lease agreement in Morrisville, North Carolina (the “New NC Lease”), to expand the Company’s research and development activities focused on its desktop offerings and enable the ability to standup an additional manufacturing site for the Company. The New NC Lease is for approximately 13,300 rentable square feet and is for a term of 88 months with total lease costs of approximately $4.0 million. The New NC Lease commenced in March 2023.

In October 2022, 908 Devices GmbH entered into a new operating lease agreement in Braunschweig, Germany, as its existing lease was expiring and to increase the existing manufacturing site and set up European base of operations for the Company. The lease in Braunschweig is for approximately 7,500 rentable square feet and commenced in January 2023. The lease in Braunschweig is for a term of 60 months with total lease costs of approximately $0.4 million.
