Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023. All references to years in these financial statements are to fiscal years. Effective October 1, 2023, we made changes to our segment reporting structure that resulted in four reporting segments. Our former Aircraft Controls segment has been separated into Military Aircraft and Commercial Aircraft. The Goodwill, Restructuring and Segment footnotes have been restated to reflect this change. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted There have been no new accounting pronouncements adopted for the nine months ended June 29, 2024. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Standard Description Financial Statement Effect or Other Significant Matters ASU no. 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures This standard requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The amendments also require disclosure of all other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition. Additionally, the amendments require disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The provisions of the standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendment requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently reviewing the guidance and evaluating the impact on our financial statements and related disclosures. Planned date of adoption: ASU no. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures This standard expands annual income tax disclosures to require specific categories in the rate reconciliation table to be disclosed using both percentages and reporting currency amounts and requires additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additionally, the amendment requires disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The provisions of the standard are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the guidance and evaluating the impact on our financial statements and related disclosures. Planned date of adoption:

Revenue from Contracts with Cus

Revenue from Contracts with Customers	9 Months Ended
	Jun. 29, 2024
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue from Contracts with Customers	Revenue from Contracts with Customers We recognize revenue from contracts with customers using the five-step model prescribed in ASC 606. The first step is identifying the contract. The identification of a contract with a customer requires an assessment of each party’s rights and obligations regarding the products or services to be transferred, including an evaluation of termination clauses and presently enforceable rights and obligations. Each party’s rights and obligations and the associated terms and conditions are typically determined in purchase orders. For sales that are governed by master supply agreements under which provisions define specific program requirements, purchase orders are issued under these agreements to reflect presently enforceable rights and obligations for the units of products and services being purchased. Contracts are sometimes modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. When this occurs, we assess the modification as prescribed in ASC 606 and determine whether the existing contract needs to be modified (and revenue cumulatively caught up), whether the existing contract needs to be terminated and a new contract needs to be created, or whether the existing contract remains and a new contract needs to be created. This is determined based on the rights and obligations within the modification as well as the associated transaction price. The next step is identifying the performance obligations. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer goods or services to a customer that is distinct in the context of the contract, as defined by ASC 606. We identify a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of our assessment, we consider all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complexity and reliance on each other or, in many cases, we provide a significant integration service. Accordingly, many of our contracts are accounted for as one performance obligation. In limited cases, our contracts have more than one distinct performance obligation, which occurs when we perform activities that are not highly complex or interrelated or involve different product life cycles. Warranties are provided on certain contracts, but do not typically provide for services beyond standard assurances and are therefore not distinct performance obligations under ASC 606. The third step is determining the transaction price, which represents the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to receive from a customer in exchange for providing the goods or services. There are times when this consideration is variable, for example a volume discount, and must be estimated. Sales, use, value-added, and excise taxes are excluded from the transaction price, where applicable. The fourth step is allocating the transaction price. The transaction price must be allocated to the performance obligations identified in the contract based on relative stand-alone selling prices when available, or an estimate for each distinct good or service in the contract when standalone prices are not available. Our contracts with customers generally require payment under normal commercial terms after delivery. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 60 days of delivery. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment. The final step is the recognition of revenue. We recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. ASC 606 provides guidance to help determine if we are satisfying the performance obligation at a point in time or over time. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative use of the product or service. In essence, we recognize revenue when, or as control of, the promised goods or services transfer to the customer. Revenue is recognized using either the over time or point in time method. The over-time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Space and Defense, Military Aircraft and Commercial Aircraft. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls as the assets are being created or enhanced. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Our over-time contracts are primarily firm fixed price. Revenue recognized at the point in time control is transferred to the customer is used most frequently in Industrial. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606 - the entity has a present right to payment; the customer has legal title; the customer has physical possession; the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership; and the customer has accepted the asset. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized. Inventory costs include all product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead cost allocations. Shipping and handling costs are considered costs to fulfill a contract and not considered performance obligations. They are included in cost of sales as incurred. Revenue is recognized over time on contracts using the cost-to-cost method of accounting as work progresses toward completion as determined by the ratio of cumulative costs incurred to date to estimated total contract costs at completion, multiplied by the total estimated contract revenue, less cumulative revenue recognized in prior periods. We believe that cumulative costs incurred to date as a percentage of estimated total contract costs at completion is an appropriate measure of progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations as this measure most accurately depicts the progress of our work and transfer of control to our customers. Changes in estimates affecting sales, costs and profits are recognized in the period in which the change becomes known using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting, resulting in the cumulative effect of changes reflected in the period. Estimates are reviewed and updated quarterly for substantially all contracts. For the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024 we recognized lower revenue of $10,565 and $8,181 respectively, for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. For the three and nine months ended July 1, 2023 we recognized lower revenue of $5,114 and $7,180, respectively, for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. Contract costs include only allocable, allowable and reasonable costs which are included in cost of sales when incurred. For applicable U.S. Government contracts, contract costs are determined in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations and the related Cost Accounting Standards. The nature of these costs includes development engineering costs and product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead costs. Contract profit is recorded as a result of the revenue recognized less costs incurred in any reporting period. Variable consideration and contract modifications, such as performance incentives, penalties, contract claims or change orders are considered in estimating revenues, costs and profits when they can be reliably estimated and realization is considered probable. Revenue recognized on contracts for unresolved claims or unapproved contract change orders was not material for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024. As of June 29, 2024, we had contract reserves of $67,707. For contracts with anticipated losses at completion, a provision for the entire amount of the estimated remaining loss is charged against income in the period in which the loss becomes known. Contract losses are determined considering all direct and indirect contract costs, exclusive of any selling, general or administrative cost allocations that are treated as period expenses. Loss reserves are more common on firm fixed-price contracts that involve, to varying degrees, the design and development of new and unique controls or control systems to meet the customers’ specifications. We calculate contract losses at the contract level, versus the performance obligation level. Recall reserves are recorded when additional work is needed on completed products for them to meet contract specifications. Contract-related loss reserves are recorded for the additional work needed on completed and delivered products in order for them to meet contract specifications. Contract Assets and Liabilities Unbilled receivables (contract assets) primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. Unbilled receivables are classified as current assets and in accordance with industry practice, include amounts that may be billed and collected beyond one year due to the long term nature of our contracts. Contract advances and progress billings (contract liabilities) relate to payments received from customers in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations for a contract (contract advances) and when billings are in excess of revenue recognized (progress billings). These amounts are recorded as contract liabilities until such obligations are satisfied, either over-time as costs are incurred or at a point when deliveries are made. We do not consider contract advances and progress billings to be significant financing components as the intent of these payments in advance are for reasons other than providing a significant financing benefit and are customary in our industry. For contracts recognized using the cost-to-cost method, the amount of unbilled receivables or contract advances and progress billings is determined for each contract to determine the contract asset or contract liability position at the end of each reporting period. Total contract assets and contract liabilities are as follows: June 29, September 30, 2023 Unbilled receivables $ 766,445 $ 706,601 Contract advances and progress billings 353,496 377,977 Net contract assets $ 412,949 $ 328,624 The net increase in contract assets reflects the impact of additional unbilled revenues and a decrease in contract advances and progress billings during the period. For the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024, we recognized $71,811 and $215,019 of revenue, that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the year. Remaining Performance Obligations As of June 29, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) was $5,000,000. We expect to recognize approximately 50% of that amount as sales over the next twelve months and the balance thereafter.

Receivables [Abstract]
Receivables	Receivables Receivables consist of: June 29, September 30, Accounts receivable $ 420,837 $ 426,804 Other 35,154 11,929 Less allowance for credit losses (3,024) (4,010) Receivables, net $ 452,967 $ 434,723 During the nine months ended June 29, 2024, we recorded a write-down of $1,152 associated with the U.S. Army announcement cancelling the next generation Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft ("FARA") program. On December 13, 2023, Moog Receivables LLC (the "Receivables Subsidiary"), a wholly owned bankruptcy remote special purpose subsidiary of Moog Inc. (the "Company"), as seller, the Company, as master servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Agent") and certain purchasers (collectively, the "Purchasers") entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "RPA"). The RPA amendment increased the capacity from $100,000 to $125,000 and extended the maturity date from November 4, 2024 to December 11, 2026. The RPA is subject to customary termination events related to transactions of this type. Under the RPA, the Receivables Subsidiary may sell receivables to the Purchasers in amounts up to a $125,000 limit. The receivables will be sold to the Purchasers in consideration for the Purchasers making payments of cash, which is referred to as "capital" for purposes of the RPA, to the Receivables Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the RPA. The Receivables Subsidiary may sell receivables to the Purchasers so long as certain conditions are satisfied, including that, at any date of determination, the aggregate capital paid to the Receivables Subsidiary does not exceed a "capital coverage amount," equal to an adjusted net receivables pool balance minus a required reserve. Each Purchaser's share of capital accrues yield at a variable rate plus an applicable margin. The parties intend that the conveyance of receivables to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers will constitute a purchase and sale of receivables and not a pledge for security. The Receivables Subsidiary has guaranteed to each Purchaser and Agent the prompt payment of sold receivables, and to secure the prompt payment and performance of such guaranteed obligations, the Receivables Subsidiary has granted a security interest to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, in all assets of the Receivables Subsidiary. The assets of the Receivables Subsidiary are not available to pay our creditors or any affiliate thereof. In our capacity as master servicer under the RPA, we are responsible for administering and collecting receivables and have made customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities. We also provided a performance guarantee for the benefit of the Purchaser. The proceeds of the RPA are classified as operating activities in our Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. Cash received from collections of sold receivables is use d by the Receivables Subsidiary to fund additional purchases of receivables on a revolving basis or to return all or any portion of outstanding capital of the Purchaser. Subsequent collections on the pledged receivables, which have not been sold, will be classified as operating cash flows at the time of collection. Total receivables sold under the RPA were $177,916 and $501,522 for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. Total cash collections under the RPA were $177,916 and $476,522 for the three and nine months ended June 29, 2024, respectively. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to their credit quality and short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded. As of June 29, 2024, the amount sold to the Purchasers was $125,000, which was derecognized from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. As collateral against sold receivables, the Receivables Subsidiary maintains a certain level of unsold receivables, which was $645,261 at June 29, 2024. The allowance for credit losses is based on our assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The allowance is determined by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

Leases [Abstract]
Lessee, Operating Leases	Leases We lease certain manufacturing facilities, office space and machinery and equipment globally. At inception, we evaluate whether a contractual arrangement contains a lease. Specifically, we consider whether we control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. If the contractual arrangement contains a lease, we then determine the classification of the lease, operating or finance, using the classification criteria described in ASC 842. We then determine the term of the lease based on terms and conditions of the contractual arrangement, including whether the options to extend or terminate the lease are reasonably certain to be exercised. We have elected to not separate lease components from non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges and instead, account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component. Our lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in Property, plant and equipment and finance lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other, and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Operating lease cost is included in Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Finance lease cost is included in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative and Interest on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The ROU assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are recognized as of the commencement date at the net present value of the fixed minimum lease payments over the term of the lease, using the discount rate described below. Variable lease payments are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate as of the commencement date of the lease and included in the fixed minimum lease payments. For short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less as of the commencement date, we do not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability on our balance sheet; we recognize expense as the lease payments are made over the lease term. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of our leases is the rate implicit in the lease. If the information necessary to determine the rate implicit in the lease is not available, we use our incremental borrowing rate for collateralized debt, which is determined using our credit rating and other information available as of the lease commencement date.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill And Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Intangible Assets Effective October 1, 2023, we made a change to our reporting structure to separate our former Aircraft Controls operating segment into two operating segments, Military Aircraft and Commercial Aircraft, which also represent reporting units for purposes of assessing goodwill. We performed an impairment test consistent with the rules set forth under ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other,” by performing a quantitative analysis on the former reporting unit. Following this test, we reassigned the goodwill from the former Aircraft Controls reporting unit to its new reporting units using a relative fair value allocation approach. We then performed quantitative goodwill impairment tests on each of the new reporting units. Quantitative testing requires a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value. We principally use the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. The discounted cash flow method incorporates various assumptions, the most significant being projected cash flows (inclusive of projected revenue growth rates and operating margins), the terminal growth rate and the discount rate. Management projects revenue growth rates, operating margins and cash flows based on each reporting unit's current business, expected developments and operational strategies typically over a five-year period. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and an impairment loss must be measured. The results of our quantitative assessments showed the fair value of the two new reporting units, Military Aircraft and Commercial Aircraft, exceeded their carrying value; and therefore, goodwill was not impaired. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows: Space and Military Aircraft Commercial Aircraft Industrial Total Balance at September 30, 2023 $ 259,475 $ 111,276 $ 92,612 $ 357,938 $ 821,301 Acquisition — 2,739 — — 2,739 Foreign currency translation 29 1,858 — 1,392 3,279 Balance at June 29, 2024 $ 259,504 $ 115,873 $ 92,612 $ 359,330 $ 827,319 Goodwill in our Space and Defense segment is net of a $4,800 accumulated impairment loss at June 29, 2024.

Program-related intangible assets consist of long-term programs represented by current contracts and probable follow on work. Marketing-related intangible assets primarily consist of trademarks and trade names. During the three months ended March 30, 2024, we initiated restructuring actions in conjunction with exiting a product line within our Military Aircraft segment, which included the write off of intangible assets. We have recorded this charge based on the expected cash flows over the remaining life of the assets and is included in Restructuring in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings.

MASA is intended to provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services for our manufactured flight control systems. We continued to divest our interest in NOVI LLC, which is included in our Space and Defense segment. Our ownership is now below the threshold for equity accounting and as such is now recorded at fair value. Suffolk Technologies Fund 1, L.P., is a limited partnership included in our Industrial segment that invests in startups to transform the construction, real estate and property maintenance industries in the U.S. We have a remaining on-call capital commitment of up to $5,808. Hybrid Motion Solutions (“HMS”) is a joint venture in our Industrial segment in which we hold a 50% ownership interest. HMS specializes in hydrostatic servo drives and leverages synergies to enter new markets. The joint venture focuses on research and development, design and assembly as well as service. Our share of cumulative losses to date has exceeded our initial investment, and as such, we had no net investment balance recorded as of June 29, 2024. Investments in, and the operating results of, entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest or the ability to exercise significant influence over the operations are accounted for at historical cost or fair value using readily determinable financial information. As of June 29, 2024, we had investments of $4,580, which are included as Other assets in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 30, 2024, we recorded an impairment for the devaluation of an investment of $5,294, which is included as Asset impairment in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings.

Derivative Instruments and Hedges, Assets [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments We principally use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign operations and foreign currency transactions an d interest rate risk associated with long-term debt. We enter into derivative financial instruments with a number of major financial institutions to minimize counterparty credit risk. Derivatives designated as hedging instruments We use foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges to effectively fix the exchange rates on future payments and revenue. As of June 29, 2024, we had no outstanding foreign currency contracts designated as hedging instruments. We use forward currency contracts to hedge our net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. As of June 29, 2024, we had no outstanding net investment hedges. Interest rate swaps are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the amount of future cash flows related to interest payments on variable-rate debt that, in combination with the interest payments on the debt, convert a portion of the variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. At June 29, 2024, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps. Foreign currency contracts, net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in Shareholders’ Equity as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCIL"). These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings, as necessary, during the periods in which the related payments or receipts affect earnings. However, to the extent the foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are not perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the payments and revenue being hedged, the ineffective portion of these contracts is recognized in earnings immediately. Ineffectiveness was not material in the first nine months of 2024 or 2023. Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments We also have foreign currency exposure on balances, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in a foreign currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. To minimize foreign currency exposure, we have foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $151,065 at June 29, 2024. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. We recorded the following gains and losses on foreign currency contracts which are included in other income or expense and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other income or expense: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended Statements of Earnings location June 29, July 1, June 29, July 1, Net gain (loss) Foreign currency contracts Other $ (2,542) $ 1,151 $ (1,009) $ 4,256 Summary of derivatives The fair value and classification of derivatives is summarized as follows: Balance Sheets location June 29, September 30, Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: Foreign currency contracts Other current assets $ — $ 295 Foreign currency contracts Accrued liabilities and other $ — $ 581 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Foreign currency contracts Other current assets $ 64 $ 93 Foreign currency contracts Accrued liabilities and other $ 401 $ 324

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value	Fair Value Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value. The definition of the fair value hierarchy is as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 – Inputs for which significant valuation assumptions are unobservable in a market and therefore value is based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require. Our derivatives are valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The following table presents the fair values and classification of our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, all of which are classified as Level 2, except for the acquisition contingent consideration, which is classified as Level 3: Balance Sheets location June 29, September 30, Foreign currency contracts Other current assets $ 64 $ 388 Total assets $ 64 $ 388 Foreign currency contracts Accrued liabilities and other $ 401 $ 905 Acquisition contingent consideration Accrued liabilities and other 3,339 — Acquisition contingent consideration Other long-term liabilities — 3,089 Total liabilities $ 3,740 $ 3,994 The changes in financial liabilities classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 29, July 1, June 29, July 1, Balance at beginning of period $ 3,256 $ 2,954 $ 3,089 $ 3,272 Acquisition adjustment — — — (491) Increase in discounted future cash flows recorded as interest expense 83 52 250 225 Balance at end of period $ 3,339 $ 3,006 $ 3,339 $ 3,006 Our only financial instrument for which the carrying value differs from its fair value is long-term debt. At June 29, 2024, the fair value of long-term debt was $932,465 compared to its carrying value of $961,000. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and was estimated based on quoted market prices.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2023 was 15.8% and 21.3%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 was lower than expected from applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% to earnings before income taxes due to beneficial provision to return adjustments, primarily associated with an increase in the U.S. research and development tax credit, partially offset by tax on earnings generated outside the U.S. with higher statutory rates. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended June 29, 2024 was higher than expected from applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% to earnings before income taxes due to tax on earnings generated outside the U.S.with higher statutory rates.

Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings. We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings which management believes will result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We are engaged in administrative proceedings with governmental agencies and legal proceedings with governmental agencies and other third parties in the normal course of our business, including litigation under Superfund laws, regarding environmental matters. We believe that adequate reserves have been established for our share of the estimated cost for all currently pending environmental administrative or legal proceedings and do not expect that these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In the ordinary course of business we could be subject to ongoing claims or disputes from our customers, the ultimate settlement of which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations. While the receivables and any loss provisions recorded to date reflect management's best estimate of the projected costs to complete a given project, there is still significant effort required to complete the ultimate deliverable. Future variability in internal cost and future profitability is dependent upon a number of factors including deliveries, performance and government budgetary pressures. The inability to achieve a satisfactory contractual solution, further unplanned delays, additional developmental cost growth or variations in any of the estimates used in the existing contract analysis could lead to further loss provisions. Additional losses could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the loss may be recognized. We are contingently liable for $15,058 related to standby letters of credit issued by banks to third parties on our behalf at June 29, 2024.
