Leases of Lessee and Commitments Disclosure [Text Block]

8. LEASES

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. The Company leases certain office equipment under finance leases. We also lease equipment related to our horse racing operations under operating leases. For lease accounting purposes, we do not separate lease and nonlease components, nor do we record operating or finance lease assets and liabilities for short term leases.

As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. We recognize expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any variable lease payments, material residual value guarantees or any restrictive covenants.

Lease costs related to operating leases were $26,785 and $26,784 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The total lease expenses for leases with a term of twelve months or less for which the Company elected not to recognize a lease asset or liability was $457,454 and $488,937 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Lease costs included in depreciation and amortization related to our finance leases were $33,332 and $18,701 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Interest expense related to our finance leases was immaterial.
