Operating Leases

For leases with a term of 12 months or less, the Company is permitted to make and has made an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities, and we recognize lease expense for such leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company maintains its principal office at 95 Christopher Columbus Drive, 16^th Floor Jersey City, NJ 07302. The Company moved in October 2020 and its office is in a shared office space provider, at a cost of $99 per month and currently the lease is month-to-month.

Right of use assets represent the 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. Operating lease right of use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease right of use asset also excludes lease incentives. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In determining the discount rate to use in calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company estimates the rate of interest it would pay on a collateralized loan with the same payment terms as the lease by utilizing bond yields traded in the secondary market to determine the estimated cost of funds for the particular tenor.

Upon the purchase of Volt on November 8, 2021 the Company acquired a lease for new office space in the Netherlands, for a term of three years. The Company analyzed this lease and determined that this agreement meets the definition of a lease under ASU 2016-02 as it provides management with the exclusive right to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the identified leased asset, which is the office space. Management also analyzed the terms of this arrangement and concluded it should be classified as an operating lease, as none of the criteria were met for finance lease classification. As there was only one identified asset, no allocation of the lease payments was deemed necessary. Management did not incur any initial direct costs associated with this lease. As of the commencement date, a right of use asset and lease liability of $102,331 was recorded on the consolidated balance sheet based on the present value of payments in the lease agreement. Per review of the lease agreement, there was no variable terms identified and there is no implicit rate stated. Therefore, the Company determined the present value of the future minimum lease payments based on the incremental borrowing rate of the Company. The incremental borrowing rate was determined to be 4%, as this is the rate which represents the incremental borrowing rate for the Company, on a collateralized basis, in a similar economic environment with similar payment terms.

The future minimum payments on operating leases for each of the next three years and in the aggregate amount to the following:

2022	$	32,890
2023		43,500
2024		39,875
Total lease payments		116,265
Less: present value discount		(21,839	)
Total operating lease liabilities	$	94,426

The weighted-average remaining term of the Company’s operating leases was 2.6 years and the weighted-average discount rate used to measure the present value of the Company’s operating lease liabilities was 4% as of March 31, 2022.
