5.We note your disclosures of potential adverse impacts from COVID-19. Please tell us
what consideration you gave to providing expanded information regarding specific

7.We note your response to prior comment 17 and your revised disclosure in Note 12 to
your consolidated financial statement where it appears that lease cost for operating leases
is still being allocated between the amortization of the asset and interest on lease liabilities
for the year ended December 31, 2019. We reissue our prior comment 17. Please tell us
how this allocation is consistent with the guidance in ASC 842-20-25-6(a), which states
that a lessee recognizes a single lease cost for an operating lease on a straight-line basis. In
your response clarify which financial statement line items in your consolidated statement
of operations reflect these operating lease costs. Please also refer to ASC 842-20-50-4.
