The Company rents microturbine equipment to its customers for terms ranging from a couple of months to up to ninety-six months with most of the leases generally with thirty-six month terms with an extension option, which may impact the lease term. The leases may provide the lessee with the option to purchase the underlying assets at the end of the lease term. Monthly rental payments are fixed; however, the leases may include variable payments for fuel, excess labor, additional equipment, or technician labor and engineering support. The leases are classified as either sales-type leases or operating leases, as appropriate. As further described below, the Company rents certain microturbine equipment back from customers and subleases this equipment to end users as a part of its Energy-as-a-Service business.

At June 30, 2025, the Company’s minimum rental revenue to be received was as follows (in thousands):

 Lessee

The Company leases facilities and equipment under various non-cancelable operating and finance leases expiring at various times through Fiscal 2037. All of the leases require the Company to pay maintenance, insurance and property taxes. The lease agreements for primary office and manufacturing facilities provide for rent escalation over the lease term and renewal options for five-year periods. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which may include extension periods.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not enter into new rental agreements to rent used microturbine equipment from customers where that equipment was not currently in use. The Company may enter into lease modifications from time to time, and had modified three of their current lease agreements during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The existing rental agreements provide the Company an option to extend the lease, however, the Company is not likely to exercise these options and therefore they are not included in the determination of the lease term. As of June 30, 2025, lease commitments totaled approximately 18.4 megawatts of microturbines and had an average term of 33 months and a total remaining commitment value of approximately $7.9 million.

The components of lease expense were as follows (in thousands):
