Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Obligations

We lease property and equipment under operating leases, typically with terms greater than 12 months, and determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. In general, an arrangement contains a lease if there is an identified asset and we have the right to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the identified asset. We record an operating lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term on the commencement date. The related right of use (“ROU”) operating lease asset reflects rental escalation clauses, as well as renewal options and/or termination options. The exercise of lease renewal and/or termination options are at our discretion and are included in the determination of the lease term and lease payment obligations when it is deemed reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, certain leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

We classify our leases as buildings, vehicles or computer and office equipment and do not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for any of the aforementioned classifications. In accordance with applicable guidance, we do not record leases with terms that are less than one year on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

None of our lease agreements contain material restrictive covenants or residual value guarantees.

Buildings

We lease certain office and warehouse space at various locations in the United States where we provide services. These leases are typically greater than one year with fixed, escalating rents over the noncancelable terms and, therefore, ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, with rent expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The remaining lease terms vary from approximately one to seven years as of June 30, 2024.

We entered into a lease (“initial lease”) in October 2018, for approximately 80,000 square feet of office space for our new corporate headquarters in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In December 2018, we amended the initial lease to add approximately 29,000 square feet of additional office space, which is accounted for as a separate lease (“second lease”) in accordance with ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”). In December 2019, we further amended the lease which extended the expiration date of the initial lease, extended the expiration date of and added approximately 4,000 square feet to the second lease, as well as added approximately 37,000 square feet of additional office space, accounted for as a separate lease (“third lease”) in accordance with ASC 842. The portion of the space covered under the initial lease was placed in service in September 2019. The portion of the space covered under the second lease commenced in September 2020. Finally, the portion of the space covered under the third lease commenced in September 2021. The three portions were recognized as an operating lease and included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Computer and Office Equipment

We also have operating lease agreements for certain computer and office equipment. The remaining lease terms as of June 30, 2024, ranged from less than one year to approximately four years with fixed monthly payments that are included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities. The leases provide an option to purchase the related equipment at fair market value at the end of the lease. The leases will automatically renew as a month-to-month rental at the end of the lease if the equipment is not purchased or returned.

Major Vendors

We had purchases from one vendor that accounted for 17% of our total purchases for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and purchases from one vendor that accounted for 20% of our total purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2024. We had purchases from two vendors that accounted for 30% of our total purchases for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and purchases from one vendor that accounted for 24% of our total purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Purchase Commitments

We issued purchase orders prior to June 30, 2024, totaling $28.8 million for goods that we expect to receive within the next year.

Retirement Plan

We maintain a 401(k) retirement plan for our employees in which eligible employees can contribute a percentage of their pre-tax compensation. We recorded an expense related to our discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan of $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

On May 24, 2022, a stockholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota, purportedly on behalf of the Company against certain of our present and former officers and directors and the Company (as a nominal defendant), captioned Jack Weaver v. Moen, et al., File No. 0:22-cv-01403-NEB-BRT (the “Weaver Lawsuit”). The Weaver Lawsuit generally arises out of the same subject matter as a previously settled securities class action captioned Brian Mart v. Tactile Sys. Tech., Inc., et al., File No. 0:20-cv-02074-NEB-BRT (D. Minn.) (the “Mart Lawsuit”), which alleged, inter alia, that we and eight of our former officers and directors made materially false or misleading statements about our business, operational and compliance policies. The Weaver Lawsuit alleges the following claims under the Exchange Act and common law: (1) that the director defendants made materially false or misleading public statements in proxy statements in violation of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; (2) that the director defendants’ stock and option awards should be rescinded under Section 29(b) of the Exchange Act; (3) that the officer defendants’ employment contract compensation should be rescinded under Section 29(b) of the Exchange Act; (4) that certain officer defendants are liable for contribution arising out of any liability incurred in the Mart Lawsuit, under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act; (5) that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties; and (6) that the individual defendants were unjustly enriched. The Weaver Lawsuit seeks unspecified damages. In August 2022, the matter was transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Delaware by order granting the Parties Stipulation to Transfer. On February 10, 2023, we filed a motion to dismiss the action. The plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint on March 3, 2023. On March 31, 2023, we filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint. On July 31, 2023, the plaintiff filed a Joint Notice of Preliminary Settlement indicating that the parties had reached a non-binding settlement-in-principal on most of the material terms that would resolve all claims between the parties and requested that the Court temporarily stay all deadlines, hearings, and conferences while the parties continued to finalize settlement.

On June 6, 2024, we entered into a Stipulation of Settlement in the Weaver Lawsuit. On June 7, 2024, the plaintiff filed an unopposed motion for preliminary approval of the settlement.  On June 27, 2024, the Court entered an order granting the motion for preliminary approval of the settlement.  The Court has scheduled a settlement hearing for August 28, 2024 to consider whether to grant final approval to the settlement. Pursuant to the settlement, we will adopt, implement and maintain certain corporate governance reforms and have agreed to pay approximately $0.5 million in fees and expenses related to this lawsuit. The settlement does not constitute an admission of liability or wrongdoing by us or any of our current or former directors or officers.
