Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASU requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue recognition model requires identifying the contract and performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. This ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This ASU can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the updates recognized at the date of the initial application along with additional disclosures. The ASU will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, with early adoption available to us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. We have not elected to early adopt. We have performed our preliminary risk assessment and scoping of the adoption impact and are currently performing detailed assessment of various implementation matters that may have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company, but we have not concluded on the materiality or method of adoption.  In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the lease requirements in ASC 840, Leases . This ASU requires lessees to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, as well as disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Although the ASU requires both operating and finance leases to be disclosed on the balance sheet, a distinction between the two types still exists. The ASU can be applied using a modified retrospective approach, with optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply, relating to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, along with the ability to use hindsight in the evaluation of lease decisions. The ASU will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2020, with early adoption available. We are assessing the impact this pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and have not determined the materiality or method of adoption.  In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost , which requires an employer to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic pension costs within the statement of income. The amendment provides guidance requiring the service cost component to be recognized consistent with other compensation costs arising from service rendered by employees during the period, and all other components to be recognized separately outside of the subtotal of income from operations. The ASU is applied on a retrospective basis, and will become effective for us in the first quarter of the year ending September 30, 2019; with early adoption available to us in the first quarter of the year ending September 30, 2018. The net periodic benefit cost for the year ended September 30, 2016 was $4.5 million; of which the service cost component was $2.8 million and other components were $1.7 million. The net periodic benefit cost for the year ending September 30, 2017 will be $7.6 million, of which the service cost component is $3.9 million and other cost components are $3.7 million. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the test for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. If goodwill impairment is realized, the amount recognized will be the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU must be applied on a prospective basis and will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of the year ended September 30, 2021, with early adoption available. We chose to adopt the standard immediately, with no impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions [Abstract]
Acquisitions	NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS  The Company applies the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be measured at their fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition.  PetMatrix  On June 1, 2017 , the Company completed the acquisition of PetMatrix LLC, a manufacturer and marketer of rawhide-free dog chews consisting primarily of the DreamBone ® and SmartBones ® brands. The results of PetMatrix’s operations since June 1, 2017 are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income, and reported within the PET reporting segment for the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2017.  The Company has recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the Company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the June 1, 2017 acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which includes value associated with the assembled workforce. The calculation of purchase price and preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:    (in millions) Purchase Price  Cash consideration $ 255.2   (in millions) Allocation  Cash and cash equivalents $ 0.2  Trade receivables 7.8  Inventories 16.0  Prepaid expenses and other current assets 0.9  Property, plant and equipment 0.8  Goodwill 123.8  Intangible assets 110.4  Accounts payable (4.1)  Accrued wages and salaries (0.1)  Other current liabilities (0.5)  Net assets acquired $ 255.2  The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $123.8 million, allocated to the PET segment; of which $ 123.8 million is deductible for tax purposes. The values allocated to intangible assets and the weighted average useful lives are as follows:    (in millions) Carrying Amount Weighted Average Useful Life (Years)  Tradenames $ 75.0 Indefinite  Technology 21.0 14 years  Customer relationships 12.0 16 years  Non-compete agreement 2.4 5 years  Total intangibles acquired $ 110.4  The Company performed a valuation of the acquired inventories; tradenames; technologies; customer relationships and non-compete agreements. The fair values were determined based upon a preliminary valuation and the estimates and assumptions used in such valuation are pending completion and subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period; up to one year from the June 1, 2017 acquisition date. The following is a summary of significant inputs to the valuation:  · Inventory – Acquired inventory consists of branded finished goods that were valued based on the comparative sales method, which estimates the expected sales price of the finished goods inventory, reduced for all costs expected to be incurred in its completion or disposition and a profit on those costs.  · Tradenames – The Company valued indefinite-lived trade names, DreamBone ® and SmartBones ® , using an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the trade names were not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions, related trademarks and trade names, other similar trademark licensing and transaction agreements and the relative profitability and perceived contribution of the trade names.  · Technology – The Company valued technology using an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the technology was not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions, related licensing agreements and the importance of the technology and profit levels, among other considerations. The Company anticipates using these technologies through the legal life of the underlying patents; therefore, the expected useful life of these technologies is based on the remaining life of the underlying patents.  · Customer relationships – The Company valued customer relationships using an income approach, the multi-period excess earnings method. In determining the fair value of the customer relationships, the multi-period excess earnings approach values the intangible asset at the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the customer relationship after deducting contributory asset charges. The incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the subject intangible asset are then discounted to their present value. Only expected sales from current customers were used, which are estimated using annual expected growth rates of 2% to 20 % . The Company assumed a customer retention rate of up to 98% , which is supported by historical retention rates. Income taxes were estimated at 35% and amounts were discounted using a rate of 12% .  · Non-compete agreements – The Company valued the non-compete agreement using the income approach that compares the prospective cash flows with and without the non-compete agreement in place. The value of the non-compete agreement is the difference between the discounted cash flows of the business under each of these two alternative scenarios, considering both tax expenditure and tax amortization benefits.  Pro forma results have not been presented as the PetMatrix acquisition is not considered individually significant to the consolidated results of the Company.  GloFish  On May 12, 2017 , the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Yorktown Technologies LP, for the acquisition of assets consisting of the GloFish branded operations, including transfer of the GloFish ® brand, related intellectual property and operating agreements. The GloFish operations primarily consist of the development and licensing of fluorescent fish for sale through mass retail and online channels. The results of GloFish’s operations since May 12, 2017 are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income, and reported within the PET reporting segment for the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2017.  The Company has recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the Company’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the May 12, 2017 acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill, which includes value associated with the assembled workforce, including an experienced research team. The calculation of purchase price and preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:    (in millions) Purchase Price  Cash consideration $ 49.7  Contingent consideration 4.2  Total purchase price $ 53.9   (in millions) Allocation  Trade receivables $ 0.4  Property, plant and equipment 0.6  Goodwill 15.4  Intangible assets 37.8  Other current liabilities (0.3)  Net assets acquired $ 53.9  The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $15.4 million, allocated to the PET segment; of which $15.4 million is deductible for tax purposes. The values allocated to intangible assets and the weighted average useful lives are as follows:    (in millions) Carrying Amount Weighted Average Useful Life (Years)  Tradenames $ 6.1 Indefinite  Technology 30.2 13 years  Customer relationships 1.5 10 years  Total intangibles acquired $ 37.8  The Company performed a valuation of the acquired tradenames; technologies; customer relationships and contingent consideration . The fair values were determined based upon a preliminary valuation and the estimates and assumptions used in such valuation are pending completion and subject to change, which could be significant, within the measurement period; up to one year from the May 12, 2017 acquisition date. The following is a summary of significant inputs to the valuation:  · Tradenames – The Company valued indefinite-lived trade names using an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the trade names were not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions, related trademarks and trade names, other similar trademark licensing and transaction agreements and the relative profitability and perceived contribution of the trade names.  · Technology – The Company valued technology using an income approach, the relief-from-royalty method. Under this method, the asset value was determined by estimating the hypothetical royalties that would have to be paid if the technology was not owned. Royalty rates were selected based on consideration of several factors, including prior transactions, related licensing agreements and the importance of the technology and profit levels, among other considerations. The Company anticipates using these technologies through the legal life of the underlying patents; therefore, the expected useful life of these technologies is based on the remaining life of the underlying patents.  · Customer relationships – The Company valued customer relationships using a replacement cost. The replacement cost approach values the intangible asset at the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the customer relationships after deducting the cost to recreate key customer relationships. The incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to the subject intangible asset are then discounted to their present value. Income taxes were estimated at 35% and amounts were discounted using a rate of 12% .  · Contingent consideration – The Company purchase of GloFish includes a future payment that is contingent upon the achievement of future financial performance, and was valued using at its fair value at the acquisition date. The fair value of the contingent consideration is sensitive to increases or decreases in revenue projections used in the assumptions.  Pro forma results have not been presented as the GloFish acquisition is not considered individually significant to the consolidated results of the Company. Shaser  On May 18, 2017, the Company completed the purchase of the remaining 44% non-controlling interest of Shaser, Inc. with a purchase price of $12.6 million. Effective May 18, 2017, Shaser, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and all recognized non-controlled interest associated with Shaser, Inc. is part of the Company’s equity. As a result of the acquisition the Company recognized an increase of $24.1 million to additional paid-in capital.

The Company recognized $1.0 million of costs in connection with amending the Credit Agreement that has been recognized as interest expense.  On March 6, 2017, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement expanding the overall capacity of the Revolver Facility to $700 million, reducing the interest rate margin to either adjusted LIBOR plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% , or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% , reducing the commitment fee to 35bps , and extending the maturity to March 2022 . The Company recognized $2.6 million of costs in connection with amending the cash revolver that has been deferred as debt issuance costs.  On April 7, 2017, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement reducing the interest rate margins applicable to the USD Term Loans to either adjusted LIBOR plus margin of 2.00% per annum, or base rate plus margin of 1.00% . The Company recognized $0.6 million of costs in connection with amending the Credit Agreement that has been recognized as interest expense.  On May 16, 2017, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the Credit Agreement increasing its USD Term Loan by $250.0 million of incremental borrowings and removing the floor which both LIBOR and base rates were subject to. The Company recognized $2.7 million as costs in connection with the increased borrowing that has been deferred as debt issuance costs.  On May 24, 2017, the Company extinguished its Euro Term Loan and recognized non-cash interest expense of $0.6 million for previously deferred debt issuance costs in connection with the extinguishment.  Subsequent to the amendments to the Credit Agreement discussed above, the Term Loans and Revolver Facility are subject to variable interest rates, (i) the USD Term Loan is subject to either adjusted LIBOR, plus margin of 2.00% per annum, or base rate plus margin of 1.00% per annum; (ii) the CAD Term Loan is subject to either CDOR (Canadian Dollar Offered Rate), subject to a 0.75% floor plus 3.50% per annum, or base rate with a 1.75% floor plus 2.50% per annum; (iii) the Euro Term Loan was subject to either EURIBOR (Euro Interbank Offered Rate), subject to a 0.75% floor plus 2.75% per annum; and (iv) the Revolver Facility is subject to either adjusted LIBOR plus margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% per annum, or base rate plus margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% per annum.

The Credit Agreement, solely with respect to the Revolver Facility, contains a financial covenant test on the last day of each fiscal quarter on the maximum total leverage ratio. This is calculated as the ratio of (i) the principal amount of third party debt for borrowed money (including unreimbursed letter of credit drawings), capital leases and purchase money debt, at period-end, less cash and cash equivalents, to (ii) adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. The maximum total leverage ratio should be no greater than 6.0 to 1.0. As of July 2, 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the 6.625% Notes, the 6.125% Notes, the 5.75% Notes, and the 4.00% Notes .  On October 20, 2016, the Company redeemed the remaining outstanding aggregate principal on the 6.375% Notes of $129.7 million with a make whole premium of $4.6 million recognized as interest expense for the nine month period ended July 2, 2017 in connection with the issuance of the €425 million aggregate principal amount 4.00% unsecured notes due 2026 (the “4.00% Notes”) and repurchase of the 6.375% Notes on September 20, 2016. The Company recognized $1.9 million in non-cash interest expense for previously deferred debt issuance costs associated with the 6.375% Notes.

Derivatives [Abstract]
Derivatives	NOTE 10 - DERIVATIVES  Cash Flow Hedges   Interest Rate Swaps. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges with the changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The swaps settle periodically in arrears with the related amounts for the current settlement period payable to, or receivable from, the counterparties included in accrued liabilities or receivables, respectively, and recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest from the underlying debt to which the swap is designated. At July 2, 2017, the Company had a series of U.S. dollar denominated interest rate swaps outstanding which effectively fix the interest on floating rate debt, exclusive of lender spreads, at 1.76% for a notional principal amount of $300 million through May 2020 . The derivative net losses estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings over the next 12 months is $1.0 million, net of tax. The Company’s interest rate swap financial instruments at July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016 are as follows:     July 2, 2017 September 30, 2016  (in millions) Notional Amount Remaining Years Notional Amount Remaining Years  Interest rate swaps - fixed $ 300.0 2.8 $ 300.0 0.5  Commodity Swaps. The Company is exposed to risk from fluctuating prices for raw materials, specifically zinc and brass used in its manufacturing processes. The Company hedges a portion of the risk associated with the purchase of these materials through the use of commodity swaps. The hedge contracts are designated as cash flow hedges with the fair value changes recorded in AOCI and as a hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The unrecognized changes in fair value of the hedge contracts are reclassified from AOCI into earnings when the hedged purchase of raw materials also affects earnings. The swaps effectively fix the floating price on a specified quantity of raw materials through a specified date. At July 2, 2017, the Company had a series of zinc and brass swap contracts outstanding through December 2018. The derivative net gains estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings over the next 12 months is $1.4 million, net of tax. The Company had the following commodity swap contracts outstanding as of July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016.    July 2, 2017 September 30, 2016  (in millions, except notional) Notional Contract Value Notional Contract Value  Zinc swap contracts 7.4 Tons $ 18.2 6.7 Tons $ 12.8  Brass swap contracts 1.3 Tons $ 5.9 1.0 Tons $ 4.0  Foreign exchange contracts. The Company periodically enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge a portion of the risk from forecasted foreign currency denominated third party and intercompany sales or payments. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Japanese Yen. These foreign exchange contracts are cash flow hedges of fluctuating foreign exchange related to sales of product or raw material purchases. Until the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is recorded in AOCI and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. At the time the sale or purchase is recognized, the fair value of the related hedge is reclassified as an adjustment to Net Sales or purchase price variance in Cost of Goods Sold on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. At July 2, 2017, the Company had a series of foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding through December 2018. The derivative net loss estimated to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings over the next 12 months is $5.5 million, net of tax. At July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016, the Company had foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges with a notional value of $283.5 million and $224.8 million, respectively.  Net Investment Hedge  On September 20, 2016, SBI issued €425 million aggregate principal amount of 4.00% Notes. The 4.00% Notes are denominated in Euros and were designated as a net investment hedge of the translation of the Company’s net investments in Euro denominated subsidiaries at the time of issuance. As a result, the translation of the Euro denominated debt is recognized as AOCI with any ineffective portion recognized as foreign currency translation gains or losses on the statement of income when the aggregate principal exceeds the net investment in its Euro denominated subsidiaries. Net gains or losses from the net investment hedge are reclassified from AOCI into earnings upon a liquidation event or deconsolidation of Euro denominated subsidiaries. As of July 2, 2017, the hedge was fully effective and no ineffective portion was recognized in earnings. Derivative Contracts Not Designated as Hedges for Accounting Purposes  Foreign exchange contracts. The Company periodically enters into forward and swap foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge a portion of the risk from third party and intercompany payments resulting from existing obligations. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Taiwanese Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars or Australian Dollars. These foreign exchange contracts are economic hedges of a related liability or asset recorded in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The gain or loss on the derivative hedge contracts is recorded in earnings as an offset to the change in value of the related liability or asset at each period end. At July 2, 2017, the Company had a series of forward exchange contracts outstanding through July 2017. At July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016, the Company had $204.2 million and $131.4 million , respectively, of notional value of such foreign exchange derivative contracts outstanding.  Commodity Swaps. The Company periodically enters into commodity swap contracts to economically hedge the risk from fluctuating prices for raw materials, specifically the pass-through of market prices for silver used in manufacturing purchased watch batteries. The Company hedges a portion of the risk associated with these materials through the use of commodity swaps. The swap contracts are designated as economic hedges with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in earnings and as an asset or liability at each period end. The unrecognized changes in the fair value of the hedge contracts are adjusted through earnings when the realized gains or losses affect earnings upon settlement of the hedges. The swaps effectively fix the floating price on a specified quantity of silver through a specified date. At July 2, 2017, the Company had a series of commodity swaps outstanding through November 2018. The Company had the following commodity swaps outstanding as of July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016:   July 2, 2017 September 30, 2016  (in millions, except notional) Notional Contract Value Notional Contract Value  Silver 27.0 troy oz. $ 0.5 31.0 troy oz. $ 0.6  Fair Value of Derivative Instruments  The fair value of the Company’s outstanding derivative contracts recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position is as follows:     (in millions) Line Item July 2, 2017 September 30, 2016  Derivative Assets  Commodity swaps - designated as hedge Receivables—Other $ 2.1 $ 2.9  Commodity swaps - designated as hedge Deferred charges and other 0.2 —  Interest rate swaps - designated as hedge Deferred charges and other 0.2 —  Foreign exchange contracts - designated as hedge Receivables—Other 0.1 5.5  Foreign exchange contracts - designated as hedge Deferred charges and other — 0.1  Foreign exchange contracts - not designated as hedge Receivables—Other 0.3 0.2  Total Derivative Assets $ 2.9 $ 8.7  Derivative Liabilities  Interest rate swaps - designated as hedge Other current liabilities $ — $ 0.7  Interest rate swaps - designated as hedge Accrued interest 1.0 0.4  Commodity swaps - designated as hedge Accounts payable 0.1 0.1  Foreign exchange contracts - designated as hedge Accounts payable 7.6 1.7  Foreign exchange contracts - designated as hedge Other long-term liabilities 1.1 0.1  Foreign exchange contracts - not designated as hedge Accounts payable 1.0 0.2  Total Derivative Liabilities $ 10.8 $ 3.2  The Company is exposed to the risk of default by the counterparties with which it transacts and generally does not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk on an individual basis by periodically assessing each counterparty’s credit rating exposure. The maximum loss due to credit risk equals the fair value of the gross asset derivatives that are concentrated with certain domestic and foreign financial institution counterparties. The Company considers these exposures when measuring its credit reserve on its derivative assets, which was less than $0 .1 million as of July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016.  The Company’s standard contracts do not contain credit risk related contingent features whereby the Company would be required to post additional cash collateral as a result of a credit event. However, the Company is typically required to post collateral in the normal course of business to offset its liability positions. As of July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016, there was no cash collateral outstanding. In addition, as of July 2, 2017 and September 30, 2016, the Company had no posted standby letters of credit related to such liability positions.

For the three and nine month periods ended July 2, 2017, the effective tax rate was reduced for the recognition of tax credits. For the three and nine month periods ended July 3, 2016, the effective tax rate was reduced by the release of valuation allowance on US net operating loss deferred tax assets and increased due to $25.5 million of income tax expense recognized for a tax contingency reserve for a tax exposure in Germany. For the nine month period ended July 3, 2016, the effective tax rate was also reduced by $5.9 million for non-recurring items related to the impact of tax law changes in state deferred tax rates on the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities.

As a result, the Company recognized estimated losses related to the recall of $11.9 million as of July 2, 2017, which comprised of estimates for customer losses and direct incremental costs incurred by the Company. Additional ly, the Company recognized $13.0 million of inventory write-offs associated with inventory on-hand that was determined to be a risk of loss due to the recall. The estimates for customer losses reflect the cost of the affected products returned to or replaced by the Company and the estimated cost to reimburse customers for costs incurred by them related to the recall. The incremental costs incurred directly by the company do not include lost earnings associated with interruption of production at the Company’s facilities, or the costs to put into place corrective and preventative actions at those facilities. The Company’s estimates for losses related to the recall are provisional and were determined based on an assessment of information currently available and may be revised in subsequent periods as the Company continues to work with its customers to substantiate claims received to date and any additional claims that may be received. The Company suspended production at facilities impacted by the product safety recall and completed a comprehensive manufacturing review and is recommencing production during the fourth quarter ending September 30, 2017. There have been no lawsuits or claims related to the recalled product filed against the Company.

Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASU requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue recognition model requires identifying the contract and performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of performance obligations. This ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This ASU can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the updates recognized at the date of the initial application along with additional disclosures. The ASU will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, with early adoption available to us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. We have not elected to early adopt. We have performed our preliminary risk assessment and scoping of the adoption impact and are currently performing detailed assessment of various implementation matters that may have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company, but we have not concluded on the materiality or method of adoption.  In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the lease requirements in ASC 840, Leases . This ASU requires lessees to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, as well as disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Although the ASU requires both operating and finance leases to be disclosed on the balance sheet, a distinction between the two types still exists. The ASU can be applied using a modified retrospective approach, with optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply, relating to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, along with the ability to use hindsight in the evaluation of lease decisions. The ASU will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year ending September 30, 2020, with early adoption available. We are assessing the impact this pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and have not determined the materiality or method of adoption.  In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost , which requires an employer to disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic pension costs within the statement of income. The amendment provides guidance requiring the service cost component to be recognized consistent with other compensation costs arising from service rendered by employees during the period, and all other components to be recognized separately outside of the subtotal of income from operations. The ASU is applied on a retrospective basis, and will become effective for us in the first quarter of the year ending September 30, 2019; with early adoption available to us in the first quarter of the year ending September 30, 2018. The net periodic benefit cost for the year ended September 30, 2016 was $4.5 million; of which the service cost component was $2.8 million and other components were $1.7 million. The net periodic benefit cost for the year ending September 30, 2017 will be $7.6 million, of which the service cost component is $3.9 million and other cost components are $3.7 million. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the test for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. If goodwill impairment is realized, the amount recognized will be the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU must be applied on a prospective basis and will become effective for us beginning in the first quarter of the year ended September 30, 2021, with early adoption available. We chose to adopt the standard immediately, with no impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
