Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and, therefore, reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Crane NXT Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, previously filed on Form 10-K on February 22, 2024.

The Business' financial statements for periods prior to the Separation are prepared on a "carve-out" basis, as described below.

Basis of Presentation Prior to the Separation

Prior to the Separation, the Business operated as Holdings’ Payment & Merchandising Technologies (“P&MT”) segment; consequently, stand-alone financial statements for periods prior to the Separation were not prepared for the Business.

The Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements of Operations include all revenues and costs directly attributable to the Business, including costs for facilities, functions and services used by the Business. Prior to the Separation, costs for certain functions and services performed by centralized Holdings organizations were directly charged to the Business based on specific identification when possible or reasonable allocation methods such as net sales, headcount, usage or other allocation methods. The results of operations include allocations of costs for administrative functions and services performed on behalf of the Business by centralized groups within Holdings (see Note 2, “Related Parties” for a description of the allocation methodologies). All charges and allocations for facilities, functions and services performed by Holdings have been deemed settled in cash by the Business to Holdings in the period in which the cost was recorded in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Statements of Operations. Current and deferred income taxes have been determined based on the stand-alone results of the Business. However, because the Business filed group tax returns as part of Holdings in certain jurisdictions, the Business’ actual tax balances may differ from those reported. The Business’ portion of income taxes for certain jurisdictions is deemed to have been settled in the period the related tax expense was recorded.

Prior to the Separation, Holdings used a centralized approach to cash management and financing its operations. Accordingly, none of the cash of Holdings has been allocated to the Business in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements. However, cash balances primarily associated with certain of our foreign entities that did not participate in Holdings’ cash management program have been included in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements. Transactions between Holdings and the Business are deemed to have been settled immediately through “Crane Net Investment.” The net effect of the deemed settled transactions is reflected in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Statements of Cash Flows as “Net transfers to Crane” within financing activities and in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Statements of Changes in Equity as “Crane Net Investment.”

All intercompany accounts and transactions within the Business have been eliminated in the preparation of the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements. The Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements of the Business include assets and liabilities that have been determined to be specifically identifiable or otherwise attributable to the Business.

All allocations and estimates in the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements are based on assumptions that management believes are reasonable. However, for the periods prior to the Separation, the Unaudited Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements included herein may not be indicative of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Business in the future, or if the Business had been a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this report may not add up precisely to totals we provide, and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which intends to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements. The new standard includes new requirements to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within the reported segment's profit or loss, the amount and composition of any other segment items, the title and position of the CODM, and how the CODM uses the reported segment's profit or loss to assess performance and allocate resources. The standard is effective for all public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, applied retrospectively with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Disclosures. We do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which intends to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. The new standard requires public entities to provide greater disaggregation in their rate reconciliation, including new requirements to present reconciling items on a gross basis within specified categories, to disclose both percentages and dollar amounts, and to disaggregate individual reconciling items by jurisdiction and nature when the effect of the items meets a quantitative threshold. The guidance also includes new requirements to provide users of the financial statements with better information on future cash flow prospects. The standard is effective for all public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option, and early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Disclosures. We do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our disclosures.

The Company considered the applicability and impact of other Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and determined them to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated and Combined Condensed Statements of Operations, Balance Sheets and Cash Flows.

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value 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. Fair value measurements are to be considered from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. The standards also establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The standards describe three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical or similar assets and liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include over-the-counter derivatives, principally forward foreign exchange contracts, whose value is determined using pricing models with inputs that are generally based on published foreign exchange rates and exchange traded prices, adjusted for other specific inputs that are primarily observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Valuation Technique

The carrying value of our financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value, without being discounted, due to the short periods during which these amounts are outstanding.
