Leases

We recognize substantially all leases on our balance sheet as a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability. We have operating leases for many of our design centers that expire at various dates through fiscal 2040. We also lease certain tangible assets, including computer equipment and vehicles, with initial lease terms ranging from three to five years. We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception based on our right to control the use of an identified asset and our right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that identified asset. For purposes of measuring our ROU asset and lease liability, we determine our incremental borrowing rate by computing the rate of interest that we would have to pay to (i) borrow on a collateralized basis (ii) over a similar term (iii) at an amount equal to the total lease payments and (iv) in a similar economic environment.

The Company's lease terms and discount rates are as follows:

(1)

Operating lease costs include costs associated with fixed lease payments and index-based variable payments that qualified for lease accounting under ASC 842, Leases and complied with the practical expedients we elected. Expense related to fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(2)

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and instead expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(3)

Variable lease costs include costs that were not fixed at the lease commencement date and are not dependent on an index or rate. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred, where applicable, and include certain non-lease components, such as maintenance, utilities, real estate taxes, insurance and other services provided by the lessor, and other charges included in the lease. In addition, certain of our equipment lease agreements include variable lease payments, which are based on the usage of the underlying asset. The variable portion of payments are not included in the initial measurement of the asset or lease liability due to uncertainty of the payment amount and are recorded as expense in the period incurred.

Sale-leaseback transaction. On August 1, 2022, we completed a sale-leaseback transaction with an independent third party for the land, building and related fixed assets of a retail design center. The design center was leased back to Ethan Allen via a multi-year operating lease agreement. As part of the transaction, we received net proceeds of $8.1 million, which resulted in a pre-tax gain of $1.8 million recorded within Restructuring and other charges, net of gains and $5.2 million deferred as a liability to be amortized to Restructuring and other charges, net of gains over the term of the related lease. For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, we amortized an additional $2.0 million of this deferred liability as a gain within Restructuring and other charges, net of gains. As of March 31, 2024, the deferred liability balance was $0.9 million recorded in Other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
