Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Apr. 30, 2023
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Donaldson Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting prin ciples (GAAP) in the United States (U.S.) 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 notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of earnings, comprehensive income, financial position, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity have been included and a re of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet information was derived from the Company’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2022. As discussed in Note 18, effective November 1, 2022, the Company established a new segment reporting structure which resulted in three reportable segments: Mobile Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Life Sciences. Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s joint ventures are not majority-owned and are accounted for under the equity method. Certain reclassifications to previously reported financial information on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity have been made to conform to the current period presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities at period end and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating Environment Inflation While inflation was not as significant in the third quarter or the first nine months of fiscal 2023, as compared to the prior year, the Company continues to experience the effects of inflation related to raw materials and other expenses, including labor and energy. These inflationary pressures have had an adverse impact on the Company’s profit margins throughout the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2023, however they have been generally mitigated by pricing actions primarily implemented in the prior year. New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted The Company considers the applicability and impact of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) issued but not yet adopted. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This ASU clarifies that an acquirer of a business should recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) as if the entity had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early application permitted. This ASU is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements. In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, which clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair values; it also requires additional disclosures, including the nature and remaining duration of such restrictions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early application permitted. This ASU is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Revenue

Revenue	Apr. 30, 2023
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue	Note 3. Revenue The Company recognizes revenue on a wide range of filtration solutions sold to customers in many industries around the globe. Most of the Company’s performance obligations within customer sales contracts are for manufactured filtration systems and replacement parts. The Company also performs limited services and installation. Customer contracts may include multiple performance obligations and the transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Revenue Disaggregation Net sales, generally disaggregated by location where the customer’s order was placed, were as follows (in millions): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2023 2022 2023 2022 U.S. and Canada $ 377.3 $ 348.8 $ 1,099.0 $ 963.6 Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) 255.6 250.9 734.5 717.2 Asia Pacific (APAC) 160.8 161.6 453.8 495.6 Latin America (LATAM) 82.0 91.9 264.0 240.2 Total net sales $ 875.7 $ 853.2 $ 2,551.3 $ 2,416.6 See Note 18 for net sales disaggregated by segment and business unit. Contract Assets and Liabilities The satisfaction of performance obligations and the resulting recognition of revenue typically correspond with billing of the customer. In limited circumstances, the customer may be billed at a time later than when revenue is recognized, resulting in contract assets, which are reported in other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets were $15.4 million and $17.7 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. In other limited circumstances, the customer may make a payment at a time earlier than when revenue is recognized and prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations, resulting in contract liabilities, which are reported in deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities were $31.2 million and $22.3 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. The Company will recognize revenue in future periods related to remaining performance obligations for certain open contracts. Generally, these contracts have terms of one year or less. The amount of revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations in which the original duration of the contract is greater than one year is not significant. None of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill The Company allocates goodwill to reporting units within its Mobile Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Life Sciences segments. There were no dispositions or impairment charges recorded during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 8. Income Taxes The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns through fiscal 2018. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before fiscal 2017. As of April 30, 2023, gross unrecognized tax benefits were $16.9 million and accrued interest and penalties on these unrecognized tax benefits were $1.8 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The Company estimates within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible its uncertain tax positions could decrease by as much as $3.2 million due to lapses in statutes of limitation. The statutes of limitation periods for the Company’s various tax jurisdictions range from two years to 10 years. The Company believes it is remote that any adjustment necessary to the reserve for income taxes over the next 12 months will be material. However, it is possible the ultimate resolution of audits or disputes may result in a material change to the reserve for income taxes, although the quantification of such potential adjustments cannot be made at this time. In August 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was signed into U.S. law. Under this law, there is a new 15% corporate minimum tax, which is not expected to have an impact on the Company. In addition, beginning January 1, 2023, a 1% excise tax was imposed on the net value of certain share repurchases, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company evaluated the other aspects within this new law and does not expect a material impact to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Stock-Based Compensation	Apr. 30, 2023
Share-Based Payment Arrangement, Noncash Expense [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on the grant date fair value of the award. Stock-based awards consist primarily of non-qualified stock options, performance-based awards, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. Grants related to restricted stock awards and restricted stock units are immaterial. The Company issues treasury shares for stock options and performance-based awards. Stock Options The exercise price of options granted is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. Options are generally exercisable for up to 10 years from the date of grant and vest in equal increments over three years. Pretax stock-based compensation expense associated with options was $1.5 million and $10.8 million for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023, respectively, and was $1.4 million and $10.2 million for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2022, respectively. Fair value is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average fair value for options granted was $15.67 and $14.24 per share during the nine months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Option activity was as follows: Options Weighted Balance outstanding as of July 31, 2022 6,927,161 $ 46.32 Granted 920,816 51.35 Exercised (934,547) 40.49 Expired/forfeited (63,402) 53.42 Balance outstanding as of April 30, 2023 6,850,028 $ 47.72 Performance-Based Awards Performance-based awards are payable in common stock and are based on a formula that measures Company performance over a three-year period. These awards are settled after three years with payouts ranging from 0% to 200% of the target award depending on achievement. Pretax performance-based awards expense was $1.5 million and $5.0 million for the three and nine mo nths ended April 30, 2023, respectively, and was $1.8 million and $5.6 million for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2022, respectively.

Retirement Benefits, Description [Abstract]
Employee Benefit Plans	Note 13. Employee Benefit Plans The Company has defined benefit pension plans for certain hourly and salaried employees. They consist of plans in the U.S., Belgium, Germany, Mexico and the United Kingdom. These plans generally provide pension benefits based on years of service and compensation level. Components of net periodic pension costs other than the service cost component are included in other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Net periodic pension costs for the Company’s pension plans were as follows (in millions): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2023 2022 2023 2022 Service cost $ 1.6 $ 1.8 $ 4.8 $ 5.4 Interest cost 4.2 2.4 12.6 7.4 Expected return on assets (6.4) (6.2) (19.1) (18.7) Prior service cost amortization 0.1 0.1 0.2 0.2 Actuarial loss amortization 0.5 1.8 1.6 5.4 Settlement charge 3.3 1.1 3.3 2.3 Net periodic pension costs $ 3.3 $ 1.0 $ 3.4 $ 2.0 In the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company recorded a pension settlement charge of $3.3 million as a result of lump sum distributions exceeding the service and interest cost components of the annual net periodic pension cost. The corresponding remeasurement resulted in a decrease in the Company’s pension assets and a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income of $4.4 million. See Note 11. In the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022, the Company recorded pension settlement charges of $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, as a result of lump sum distributions exceeding the service and interest cost components of the annual net periodic pension cost. The corresponding remeasurements resulted in a decrease in the Company’s pension assets and a corresponding adjustment to other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income of $1.7 million and $7.6 million in the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022, respectively. See Note 11. The Company’s general funding policy is to make at least the minimum required contributions as required by applicable regulations, plus any additional amounts it determines to be appropriate. Future required pension plan contributions may change significantly depending on the actual rate of return on plan assets, discount rates and regulatory requirements.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging	Apr. 30, 2023
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging	Note 14. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Derivative Fair Value Measurements The Company enters into derivative instrument agreements, including foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges, to manage risk in connection with changes in foreign currency. The Company only enters into derivative instrument agreements with counterparties who have highly rated credit. There is risk the counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. In order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company only enters into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and certain other financial factors. Contract provisions may require the posting of collateral or settlement of the contracts for various reasons, including if the Company’s credit ratings are downgraded below its investment grade credit rating by any of the major credit agencies or for cross default contractual provisions if there is a failure under other financing arrangements related to payment terms or covenants. As of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, no collateral was posted. The Company does not enter into derivative instrument agreements for trading or speculative purposes. For discussion on the fair value of the Company’s derivatives, see Note 15. Foreign Currency Forward Contracts - Cash Flow Hedges and Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company buys materials from foreign suppliers. Those transactions can be denominated in those suppliers’ local currency. The Company also sells to customers in foreign countries. Those transactions can be denominated in those customers’ local currency. Both of these transaction types can create volatility in the Company’s financial statements. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage those exposures and fluctuations. These contracts generally mature in 12 months or less, which is consistent with the forecasts of the related purchases and sales. Certain contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, whereas the remaining contracts, most of which are related to certain intercompany transactions which offset balance sheet exposure, are not designated as hedging instruments. The total notional amounts of the foreign currency forward contracts designated as hedges were $69.3 million and $158.0 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. The total notional amounts of the foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges were $370.4 million and $151.6 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s designated hedges are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets until the related transaction occurs, see Note 11. Designated hedges are recognized as a component of either net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses or other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings upon occurrence of the related hedged transaction. Hedges which are not designated are recognized in other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings along with the related hedged transactions. Changes in the fair value of hedges which are not designated, are recognized in other income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Amounts related to foreign currency forward contracts designated as hedges are expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months based upon the timing of inventory purchases and sales. Net Investment Hedges The Company uses fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements to hedge its exposure to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements for i ts operations in Europe. The Company has elected the spot method for designating these contracts as net investment hedges. The total notional amount of net investment hedges was €80 million, or $88.8 million , as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022. The maturity dates range from 2027 to 2029. Gains and losses resulting from a change in fair value of the net investment hedge are offset by gains and losses on the underlying foreign currency exposure and are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts related to excluded components associated with the net investment hedge are expected to be reclassified into earnings in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings through their maturity. Cash Flows Cash flows from derivative transactions are recorded in operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	9 Months Ended
Fair Value Measurements	Apr. 30, 2023
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Note 15. Fair Value Measurements Fair value measurements of financial instruments are reported in one of three levels based on the lowest level of significant input used. For Level 1, inputs to the fair value measurement are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. For Level 2, inputs to the fair value measurement include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For Level 3, inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs or are based on valuation techniques. Short-Term Financial Instruments As of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Short-term financial instruments are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-Term Debt As of April 30, 2023, the estimated fair values of fixed interest rate long-term debt were $389.3 million compared to the carrying values of $425.0 million, inclusive of a current portion with a fair value of $122.9 million and carrying value of $125.0 million. As of July 31, 2022, the estimated fair values of fixed interest rate long-term debt were $396.9 million compared to the carrying values of $425.0 million, with no current portion. The fair values are estimated by discounting the projected cash flows using the interest rates at which similar amounts of debt could currently be borrowed. The carrying values of total variable interest rate long-term debt were $172.5 million and $221.7 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively, and approximate their fair values. Long-term deb t is cl assified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Equity Method Investments The Company holds equity method investments in its joint ventures, which are included in other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The aggregate carrying amount of these investments was $24.3 million and $22.4 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively. These equity method investments are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The fair value of the Company’s equity method investments has not been adjusted as there have been no triggering events or changes in circumstance that would have had an adverse impact on the value of these investments. In the event these investments are required to be measured, they would fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value, as the investments are in privately-held entities. Derivative Fair Value Measurements The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges reflect the amounts that would be received to sell the assets or paid to transfer the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair values are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and are determined by standard calculations and models that use readily observable market parameters. These inputs include foreign currency exchange rates. Industry standard data providers are the primary source for forward and spot rate information for foreign currency exchange rates. The fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. For discussion of the Company’s derivatives and hedging, see Note 14. Fair Value of Derivatives Contracts The fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts, recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was as follows (in millions): Assets Liabilities Balance Sheet Location April 30, July 31, April 30, July 31, Designated as hedging instruments Foreign currency forward contracts Other current assets and other current liabilities $ 1.0 $ 0.3 $ 0.8 $ 2.7 Net investment hedges Other current assets and other long-term assets 5.5 8.2 — — Total designated 6.5 8.5 0.8 2.7 Not designated as hedging instruments Foreign currency forward contracts Other current assets and other current liabilities 0.8 1.7 1.8 2.5 Total not designated 0.8 1.7 1.8 2.5 Total $ 7.3 $ 10.2 $ 2.6 $ 5.2 Amounts related to excluded components, such as forward points, are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness of net investment hedges and are expected to be reclassified into earnings throughout their maturity dates. See Note 11 for additional information on accumulated other comprehensive loss. Fair Value of Contingent Consideration The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is determined using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow method. This fair value measurement is based on unobservable inputs in the market, and thus, represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the purchase agreement (e.g., potential payment amounts, length of measurement periods, manner of calculating any amounts due) and utilizes assumptions with regard to future financial and operational milestones, probabilities of achieving such milestones and a discount rate. Depending on the contractual terms of the purchase agreement, the probability of achieving such milestones generally represents the only significant unobservable input. The contingent consideration liability is measured at fair value each reporting period and changes in estimates of fair value are recognized in earnings. The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration liability that uses unobservable inputs was $25.0 million as of April 30, 2023 and $24.7 million as of July 31, 2022. The maximum potential payout of the contingent consideration as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022 was $30.7 million. There was $1.7 million of contingent consideration as of April 30, 2022, see Note 17.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies The Company records provisions when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Claims and litigation are reviewed quarterly and provisions are taken or adjusted to reflect the status of a particular matter. The Company believes the estimated liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for claims or litigation is adequate and appropriate for the probable and estimable outcomes. Liabilities recorded were not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company believes it is remote that the settlement of any of the currently identified claims or litigation will be materially in excess of what is accrued. Contingent Compensation and Consideration Acquisition Agreement - Purilogics The Company has an acquisition purchase agreement with Purilogics, which includes deferred payment provisions representing potential milestone payments for Purilogics’ former owners. The provisions are made up of two general types of arrangements, contingent compensation and contingent consideration. The contingent compensation arrangement is contingent on the former owner’s future employment with the Company, and the related amounts are recognized over the required employment period. The contingent consideration is not contingent on employment and was recorded as purchase consideration in both other current and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the time of the initial acquisition based on the fair value of the estimated liability. The amounts are paid over a three The total contingent compensation arrangement liability was $0.8 million and $0.1 million as of April 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022, respectively, which was included in other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Effective November 1, 2022, as a result of the organizational redesign, the Company established a new segment reporting structure which resulted in three reportable segments: Mobile Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Life Sciences. The organizational structure also includes Corporate and unallocated which includes interest expense and certain corporate expenses determined to be non-allocable to the segments, such as restructuring charges and incentive compensation. The Company determines its operating segments consistent with the manner in which it manages its operations and evaluates performance for internal review and decision-making. All prior segment information has been recast to reflect the Company’s new segment structure. The Mobile Solutions segment is organized based on a combination of customers and products and consists of the Off-Road, On-Road and Aftermarket business units. Within these business units, products consist of replacement filters for both air and liquid filtration applications as well as exhaust and emissions. Applications include air filtration systems, fuel and lube systems, exhaust and emissions systems, and sensors, indicators and monitoring systems. Mobile Solutions sells to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the construction, mining, agriculture and transportation end markets and to independent distributors, OEM dealer networks, private label accounts and large fleets. The Industrial Solutions segment is organized based on product type and consists of the Industrial Filtration Solutions (IFS) and Aerospace and Defense business units. Within the IFS business unit, products consist of dust, fume and mist collectors, compressed air purification systems, air filtration systems for gas turbines , hydraulic applications as well as gas and liquid filtration for industrial processes. Aerospace and Defense products consist of air, fuel and lube filtration sold to the aerospace fixed-wing, rotorcraft and defense ground vehicle industries. The Life Sciences segment consists of micro-environment gas and liquid filtration for food, beverage and industrial processes, bioprocessing equipment, including bioreactors and fermenters, polytetrafluoroethylene membrane-based products, as well as specialized air and gas filtration systems for applications including hard disk drives, semiconductor manufacturing, sensors, indicators and monitoring systems. The Company is an integrated enterprise, characterized by substantial intersegment cooperation, cost allocations and sharing of assets. Therefore, the Company does not represent these segments, if operated independently, would report earnings before income taxes as stated below.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Donaldson Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting prin ciples (GAAP) in the United States (U.S.) 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 notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of earnings, comprehensive income, financial position, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity have been included and a re of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet information was derived from the Company’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2022. As discussed in Note 18, effective November 1, 2022, the Company established a new segment reporting structure which resulted in three reportable segments: Mobile Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Life Sciences.
Principles Of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s joint ventures are not majority-owned and are accounted for under the equity method. Certain reclassifications to previously reported financial information on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity have been made to conform to the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities at period end and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating Environment Inflation While inflation was not as significant in the third quarter or the first nine months of fiscal 2023, as compared to the prior year, the Company continues to experience the effects of inflation related to raw materials and other expenses, including labor and energy. These inflationary pressures have had an adverse impact on the Company’s profit margins throughout the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2023, however they have been generally mitigated by pricing actions primarily implemented in the prior year.
New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted	New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted The Company considers the applicability and impact of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) issued but not yet adopted. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This ASU clarifies that an acquirer of a business should recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) as if the entity had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early application permitted. This ASU is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements. In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions, which clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair values; it also requires additional disclosures, including the nature and remaining duration of such restrictions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early application permitted. This ASU is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its financial statements.
