| Leases | Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception based on whether the Company has the right to control the use of an identified asset, the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset. After the criteria are satisfied, the Company accounts for these arrangements as leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, including payments at commencement that depend on an index or rate. For leases in which the Company is the lessee that do not have a readily determinable implicit rate, an incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at the lease commencement date, is utilized to determine the present value of lease payments. When a secured borrowing rate is not readily available, unsecured borrowing rates are adjusted for the effects of collateral to determine the incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses the implicit rate for agreements in which it is a lessor. The Company has not entered into any material agreements in which it is a lessor. Lease expense and lease income are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term for operating leases.
In March 2024, the Company extended the lease on its current office and manufacturing facility for an additional 3 years. The incremental borrowing rate on this lease of 8% was used to determine the present value of lease payments and establish the right-of-use asset and lease liability at lease inception for this lease.

The negotiations were completed in March 2024 with a settlement figure of $657,000 being agreed between the Company and the lessor.

In July of 2023, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space in Scotland. The lease had a term of 5 years with two options to extend.

During the first quarter of 2024, management decided the Company would not extend this lease beyond its initial term and a loss on lease termination of $356 was reported under other (income) expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
