The total cash outflows for leases in 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $4 million, $8 million and $4 million respectively.
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months
or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option) and the lease of low-value assets recognition
exemption. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are immaterial and are recognized as an
expense within the operating category in the statement of profit on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company does not have any lease agreement with variable lease payments or residual value guarantees. The
Company has several leases that include extension and termination options. These options provide flexibility in
managing the leased-asset portfolio and align with the Company’s business needs. The Company exercises judgment in
determining whether these extension and termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. The undiscounted
potential future rental payments relating to periods following the exercise date of extension and termination options that
are not included in the lease term are not material.
