Lessor Accounting

The Company owns one commercial rental property which is leased to two tenants under operating leases with current expirations ranging from 2024 to 2028, with options to extend or terminate the leases. Revenues from such leases are reported as rental income, net and are comprised of (i) lease components, which includes fixed lease payments and (ii) non-lease components which includes reimbursements of property level operating expenses. The Company does not separate non-lease components from the related lease components, as the timing and pattern of transfer are the same, and account for the combined component in accordance with ASC 842.

Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, concession agreements have been executed with the Company’s two tenants. In accordance with the FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 842 and 840 - Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic, a lessor may make an accounting policy election to (i) not evaluate whether such COVID-19 pandemic related rent-relief is a lease modification under ASC 842 and (ii) treat each tenant rent deferral or forgiveness as if it were contemplated as part of the existing lease contract. The Company elected to apply this accounting policy to the two lease
agreements, based on the type of concession provided to the tenant, where the revised cash flows are substantially the same or less than the original lease agreement. As a result, during the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued a total concession of $75,000 for the two tenants. The Company has assessed the collectability of all other lease payments as probable as of June 30, 2020.

Lessee Accounting

The Company is a lessee under a ground lease in Yonkers, NY which is classified as an operating lease. The ground lease expires September 30, 2024 and provides for one 21-year renewal option. As of June 30, 2020, the remaining lease term is 4.25 years.

The Company is also a lessee under a corporate office lease in Great Neck, New York, which is classified as an operating lease. The lease expires on December 31, 2031 and provides a 5-year renewal option. As of June 30, 2020, the remaining lease term, including renewal options deemed exercised, is 16.5 years.

On March 31, 2019, the Company recorded $2.9 million of right of use assets ("ROU") and lease liabilities related to these operating leases. As of June 30, 2020, the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities were $2.75 million and $2.77 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities were $2.82 million and $2.83 million, respectively.

The discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). The Company considers the general economic environment and its historical borrowing rate activity and factors in various financing and asset specific adjustments to ensure the IBR is appropriate to the intended use of the underlying lease. As the Company did not elect to apply hindsight, lease term assumptions determined under ASC 840 were carried forward and applied in calculating the lease liabilities recorded under ASC 842. Certain of the Company’s ground leases offer renewal options which it assesses against relevant economic factors to determine whether it is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised, if any, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset.
