LEASES

LEASES

At contract inception, the Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease by determining whether it conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time. If the contract provides the Company the right to substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset, the Company considers it to be, or contain, a lease. The Company leases its company-owned salons and some of its corporate facilities under operating leases. The original terms of the salon leases range from one to 11 years with many leases renewable for an additional five to 10-year term at the option of the Company. In addition to the obligation to make fixed rental payments for the use of the salons, the Company also has variable lease payments that are based on sales levels. For most leases, the Company is required to pay real estate taxes and other occupancy expenses. Total rent from continuing operations includes the following:

	Fiscal Years
	2024		2023		2022
	(Dollars in thousands)
Office and warehouse rent	$	3,075	$	3,594	$	4,575
Lease termination expense (1)	101		1,627		1,835
Lease liability benefit (2)	(326)		(1,773)		(3,620)
Franchise salon rent	596		2,109		1,695
Company-owned salon rent	2,079		3,639		4,872
Total	$	5,525	$	9,196	$	9,357

(1)During fiscal years 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred costs of $0.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, to exit salons before the lease end date in order to relieve the company of future lease obligations. During fiscal year 2022, lease termination expense includes $0.9 million to exit the Company's distribution centers before the lease end dates and $0.9 million to exit salons before the lease end dates in order to relieve the Company of future lease obligations.

(2)Upon termination of previously impaired leases, the Company derecognizes the corresponding ROU assets and lease liabilities which results in a net gain. In addition, the Company recognizes a benefit from lease liabilities decreasing in excess of previously impaired ROU assets for ongoing leases that were previously impaired.

The Company leases salon premises in which the majority of its franchisees operate and has entered into corresponding sublease arrangements with franchisees. All lease-related costs are passed through to the franchisees. The Company records the rental payments due from franchisees as franchise rental income and the corresponding amounts owed to landlords as franchise rent expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In fiscal years 2024, 2023, and 2022, franchise rental income and franchise rent expense were $95.3 million, $111.4 million, and $130.8 million, respectively. These leases generally have lease terms of approximately five years. The Company expects to renew the SmartStyle master lease and certain leases for locations subleased to our franchisees upon expiration of those leases. Other leases are expected to be renewed by the franchisee upon expiration.

All the Company's leases are operating leases. The lease liability is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date, including one lease term option when the lease is expected to be renewed. The ROU asset is initially and subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, less any accrued lease payments and unamortized lease incentives received, if any. Expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including the lease renewal option when the lease is expected to be renewed. Generally, the non-lease components, such as real estate taxes and other occupancy expenses, are separate from rent expense within the lease and are not included in the measurement of the lease liability because these charges are variable.

The discount rate used to determine the present value of the lease payments is the Company's estimated collateralized incremental borrowing rate, based on the yield curve for the respective lease terms, as the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot generally be determined. The Company uses the portfolio approach in applying the discount rate based on the original lease term. The weighted average remaining lease term was 5.05 years and 5.52 years, and the weighted average discount rate was 5.13% and 4.55% for all salon operating leases as of June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

As of June 30, 2024, future operating lease commitments, including one renewal option for leases expected to be renewed, to be paid and received by the Company were as follows (in thousands):
