| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information for commercial and industrial companies and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. The consolidated financial statements include all domestic and foreign subsidiaries in which the Company maintains an ownership interest and has operating control and any variable interest entities for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Investments in certain companies over which the Company has the ability to exert significant influence, but not control the financial and operating decisions, are accounted for as equity method investments. Investments in certain companies over which the Company does not exert significant influence are accounted for as cost method investments. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Activity prior to May 1, 2025 for the SGK Business is included within the consolidated financial statements of the Company. As of May 1, 2025 the SGK Business has been deconsolidated from the financial statements and is now accounted for as part of the Company's equity-method investment in Propelis. The Company recognizes its portion of the earnings or losses for its equity-method investment in Propelis on a three-month lag to ensure consistency and timely filing of the Company's financial statements. Consequently, in fiscal 2026, the Company's portion of earnings for its equity-method investment in Propelis includes the months of July, August and September 2025. See Note 7, "Investments" for further information with respect to the equity-method investment in Propelis.
The Company applies highly inflationary accounting for subsidiaries when the cumulative inflation rate for a three-year period meets or exceeds 100 percent. The Company applied highly inflationary accounting to its Turkish subsidiaries effective April 1, 2022 and through December 2025, at which time these subsidiaries were divested. Under highly inflationary accounting, the financial statements of these subsidiaries were remeasured into the Company's reporting currency (U.S. dollar) and exchange

gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities were reflected in current earnings, rather than accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had net monetary assets related to its Turkish subsidiaries of $2,109. Exchange losses related to highly inflationary accounting totaled $16 and $191 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Such amounts were included in the Consolidated Statements of Income within other income (deductions), net.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements:
Issued
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The amendments in this ASU aim to clarify existing requirements, not to change interim disclosure obligations, and introduce a disclosure principle requiring entities to report material events occurring since the end of the last annual reporting period. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2029. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements. Among other provisions, the amendments in this ASU expand the hedged risks permitted to be aggregated in a group of individual forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge, and eliminate the recognition and presentation mismatch related to a dual hedge strategy. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2028. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). The amendments in this ASU remove all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages and now require entities to begin capitalizing software costs once management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will fulfill its intended purpose. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2029. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) which provides all entities with a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2027. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) which improves financial reporting by requiring disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses on an annual and interim basis for all public entities, including enhanced disaggregation disclosures. The ASU is effective for annual periods for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2028, and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2029. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures including rate reconciliations and income taxes paid among other tax disclosures. The ASU is effective for annual periods for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2026. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation (continued)
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements. The amendments in this update affect the presentation and disclosure of a variety of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, and align them with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulations. The effective date of the amendments of this ASU will be determined for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. If the SEC has not removed the applicable requirements from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K by June 30, 2027, then this ASU will not become effective. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) which improves financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities, including enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The ASU was effective for annual periods for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2025, and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2026. The adoption of this ASU in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 did not affect the recognition, measurement, or financial statement presentation of expenses, but did result in expanded segment information disclosures, as reflected in Note 15, "Segment Information."
