NOTE 5 – DEFERRED RENTS RECEIVABLE

 

The Company is the lessor under operating leases which contain escalating rents over time, rent holidays, options to renew, requirements to pay property taxes, insurance and/or maintenance costs, and contingent rental payments based on a percentage of monthly tenant revenues. The Company is not the lessor under any finance leases.

 

The Company recognizes fixed rental receipts from such lease agreements on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Differences between amounts received and amounts recognized are recorded under Deferred Rents Receivable on the balance sheet. Contingent rentals are recognized only after tenants’ revenues are finalized and if such revenues exceed certain minimum levels.

 

The Company leases the following owned properties:

 

  Delaware – a 45,000 square foot cannabis cultivation, processing, and dispensary facility which is leased to a cannabis-licensed client under a triple net lease that expires in 2035.
     
  Maryland – a 180,000 square foot cultivation and processing facility which is leased to a licensed cannabis client under a triple net lease that expires in 2037.
     
  Massachusetts – a 138,000 square foot industrial property of which approximately half of the available square footage is leased to a non-cannabis manufacturing company under a lease that expires in October 2022.

  Delaware – a 12,000 square foot cannabis production facility with offices which is subleased to its cannabis-licensed client. The sublease expires in January 2026 and contains an option to negotiate an extension at the end of the lease term.
