Lease

 

The Company evaluates each lease for classification as either a capital lease or an operating lease. If substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership have been transferred to the Company as lessee, the Company records the lease as a capital lease at its inception. The Company performs this evaluation at the inception of the lease and when a modification is made to a lease. If the lease agreement calls for a scheduled rent increase during the lease term, the Company recognizes the lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

NuZee JAPAN Co., Ltd is the lessee of certain equipment under a capital lease extending through 2021. The asset and liability under the capital lease are recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments, or the fair

value of the asset. Leased equipment is depreciated over a 6-year life. The leased equipment is reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in property and equipment of $6,651 as of September 30, 2019. The capital lease liability is included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

On April 23, 2019, we entered into the "Third Amendment to Lease" with our current landlord in Vista California. Under the terms of this lease we added 2,134 square feet to our facility. After this expansion, we will have 5,643 square feet spaced leased by the landlord with an additional 1,108 square feet subleased from another tenant (total 6,751 square feet). All of this space will co-terminate on May 31, 2020. The additional space will increase our monthly rent by approximately $3,647.

 

On May 7, 2019, we entered into a lease of 16,603 square-foot facility in Plano, Texas. The lease begins on June 1, 2019 and expires on June 30, 2024, and the base rent begins at $9,616 per month and increases periodically reaching $10,823 per month in the final year of the lease. The base rent does not include the Company's share of operating expenses which are currently $3,348 per month and could increase up to 10% per year. This facility will become our future single serve pour over co-packing hub.

 

The Company leases office spaces under leases with terms ranging from month to month to 61 months. Rent expense included in general and administrative expense for the years ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $169,624 and $74,001 respectively.
