NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

On September 11, 2020 a Complaint was filed against the Company’s SMCL subsidiary and various staffing agencies used by SMCL in a Superior Court of San Bernadino County. The complaint alleges an employee of SMCL committed employment practice violations against a former temporary employee not employed by SMC Logistics. Management has investigated the allegation and has engaged with an employment attorney to defend the lawsuit. Management does not believe the claims have merit and does not believe the lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

 

As of this filing management is not aware of any other legal proceedings other than matters that arise in the ordinary course of business.

 

LEASES

 

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date. The liability is equal to the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments. The asset is based on the liability, subject to certain adjustments. Operating leases result in straight-line expense (similar to operating leases under the prior accounting standard) while finance leases result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to capital leases under the prior accounting standard). As the interest rate implicit in the Company’s operating leases is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments. The Company utilizes the implicit rate for its finance leases.

 

Operating Leases

 

We have operating lease agreements for offices and a warehouse facility in Florida, California and Macau expiring in various years through 2024.

 

We entered into an operating lease agreement, effective October 1, 2017, for the corporate headquarters located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where we lease approximately 6,500 square feet of office space. The lease expires on March 31, 2024. The base rent payment is approximately $9,400 per month, subject to annual adjustments.

 

We entered into an operating lease agreement, effective June 1, 2013, for 86,000 square feet of warehouse space in Ontario, California for our logistics operations. On June 15, 2020 we executed a three-year lease extension which will expire on August 31, 2023. The renewal base rent payment is $65,300 per month with a 3% increase every 12 months for the remaining term of the extension.

 

We entered into an operating lease agreement, effective May 1, 2018, for 424 square feet of office space in Macau. The rent is fixed at approximately $1,600 per month for the duration of the lease which expired on April 30, 2021. In May 2021 we executed a one-year lease extension which will expire on April 30, 2022. The lease provides for a renewal option to extend the lease. Rent expense on the new lease is fixed at approximately $1,700 per month for the duration of the lease term.

 

Lease expense for our operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

 

Finance Leases

 

On May 25, 2018 and June 4, 2018, we entered into two long-term capital leasing arrangements with Wells Fargo Equipment Finance (“Wells Fargo”) to finance the leasing of two used forklift vehicles in the amount of approximately $44,000. The leases require monthly payments in the amount of $1,279 per month over a total lease term of 36 months which commenced on June 1, 2018. The agreement has an effective interest rate of 4.5% and the Company has the option to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term for one dollar. As of March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the remaining amounts due on these capital leasing arrangements was approximately $3,000 and $18,000, respectively.
