Leases

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office space, railcars and equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All recorded leases are classified as operating leases and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases beginning in 2019, lease components (base rental costs) are accounted for separately from the nonlease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs). For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

A summary of the Company’s lease information is as follows:

(1)

Lease expense is included in cost of sales or SG&A expenses based on the nature of the leased item. Short-term lease expense is excluded from this amount and is not material. The Company also has certain variable leases which are not material. The non-cash component of lease expense for the first three months of 2024 and 2023 was $7.5 and $5.9, respectively, and is included in the Amortization caption in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In January 2024, the Company expanded space at one of its leased manufacturing facilities. This resulted in an increase to the Company’s right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities of approximately $15.4 recorded in the first quarter of 2024.
