Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The Company calculates the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate to its year-to-date pretax book income or loss. The tax effects of discrete items, including but not limited to, excess tax benefits or deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation, valuation allowance adjustments based on new evidence, and enactment of tax laws, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. The effective tax rate (income tax expense or benefit as a percentage of income or loss before income taxes) including discrete items was 26.8% and 27.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to 4.5% and 24.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate can vary from period to period depending on, among other factors, percentage depletion, executive compensation deduction limitations, the Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit (the “45X Credit”), and changes to its valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Certain of these and other factors, including the Company’s history and projections of pretax earnings, are considered in assessing its ability to realize its net deferred tax assets. In March 2024, the Company was awarded a $58.5 million Section 48C Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Tax Credit (the “48C Credit”) to advance the construction on its Fort Worth Facility. The 48C Credit is an investment tax credit equal to 30% of qualified investments for certified projects that meet prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements and are placed in service after the date of the award. The 48C Credit is not eligible for direct pay (i.e., it is nonrefundable); however, it is transferable to an unrelated taxpayer at a negotiated rate. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had placed into service certified projects and recognized a $3.4 million 48C Credit, which was recorded to income tax receivable, included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets,” and deferred investment tax credit, included primarily in “Other non-current liabilities” within the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount will be recognized as a reduction to income tax expense on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the associated long-lived assets.
